It’s summer harvest time in the US. The
garden bounty is aplenty! Every family circle seems
to have at least one enthusiastic gardener with more
tomatoes and green beans and peppers than he or she can use on his/her own. Luckily for us, generosity
abounds in gardeners. Chiropractic Spine Sports And Rehabilitation urges
Tonawanda chiropractic patients to appreciatively accept
those tomatoes, peppers, and green beans
and feast on them for an amazing anti-oxidant and nutritional
boost to fight inflammation, heart disease, cancer, and more! Chiropractic Spine Sports And Rehabilitation embraces
all of these benefits!
ANTI-OXIDANT, ANTI-INFLAMMATORY, ANTI-DISEASE
Chiropractic Spine Sports And Rehabilitation knows this is an incredible
list of benefits. It’s hard to detach
these actions from each other! They are all healthy benefits.
Tomatoes are so full of
nutrients, providing vitamin C,
potassium and lycopene, an anti-oxidant that benefits cancer and
heart disease prevention and anti-inflammatory activity. (1,2) To boost
absorption of lycopene, eat tomatoes with some tasty,
healthy fats like olives, avocados or similar oils. (3) Bell and
chili peppers are bursting with vitamins C, A, E, K1 and potassium, folic acid and fiber. [We all could use
a little more fiber in our diets! About fiber,
green beans are wonderful sources. Plus,
they have lots of proteins, carotenoids, and
anti-oxidants with only a few calories. Green beans have
nutrients described as being anticarcinogenic, assisting the prevention and even the stopping the spread of some cancers in the
body. (4, 5, 6)] Additionally, peppers help
fight inflammation, too, with their anti-oxidants. Raw and roasted peppers offer
anti-oxidant benefits. Roasting may increase or decrease those
benefits determined by the pepper type and stage
of their growth. (7,8,9) At any rate, your Tonawanda
chiropractor urges you to enjoy some peppers, tomatoes,
and green beans! Your body will reward you!
