Add more raw foods to your diet and you will be surprised with the difference it will make in how you look, feel and perform in your daily routine. Here’s a list of 5 raw foods you can incorporate into your diet that will have you feeling energized and refreshed:

  1.  Apples: Apples contain an insane amount of soluble fiber and immune-boosting Vitamin C and Vitamin A. An apple a day is an easy way to satisfy hunger, lower cholesterol levels, regulate blood sugar, and keep your skin in great shape. Try replacing the sugary breakfast cereal with an apple and just feel the (guilt-free) difference!
  2. Spinach Leaves: Try to avoid iceberg lettuce, which contains mostly water and little nutritional value, and go with spinach leaves instead next time. Spinach leaves contains Vitamin K, Vitamin A and plenty of calcium and iron to keep you pumped like Popeye all the day long!
  3. Blueberries: Contain more antioxidants than any other fruit or vegetable. They are a natural brain food that strengthens your immune system and is very heart healthy. Best part? They are super convenient and you can never have too many.
  4. Almonds: Natural, unsalted almonds contain high levels of Vitamin B6, magnesium and healthy unsaturated fats that are very essential to the body. They can reduce the rick of blood clots, improve the healthy lining of your arteries and even help lower the LDL cholesterol level in the blood. Just a handful a day helps to prevent weight gain and promotes good heart health.              
  5. Dark Chocolate: Cocoa is very high in antioxidant content which helps fight the damaging effects of stress on the cells inside the body. Cocoa also helps trigger the brain production of neurotransmitters, sulfur and magnesium, which produces a natural ‘good’ feeling and works naturally to alleviate stress. BOOM! POW! Depression doesn’t stand a chance against chocolate!
