It’s the time of year that we might be thinking about health benefits. What do we want, need or deserve? What can we expect? As you ponder the benefits you have experienced this year, here are a few more to consider. Focus on one, some or all and the healthy benefits you get in return will certainly be a bonus:
Fruit with Benefits: Apples – Full of antioxidants named flavonoids, which may lower the risk of developing diabetes or asthma Bananas- Potassium rich which helps fight cramps & may help lower blood pressure Grapes - Contain resveratrol, an antioxidant that may help prevent heart disease by reducing blood pressure levels and lowering the risk of blood clots. Fun with Benefits: Go ahead, do something silly or maybe even a bit crazy. Stretching our comfort zone when it comes to having fun provides us with a sense of wonder, adventure and maybe even a bit of an adrenaline boost. Flavor with Benefits: Tumeric – contains curcumin, an antioxidant that research suggests may help relieve joint pain by fighting inflammation Cayenne Pepper – capsaicin, found in whole or ground red chile peppers, may help fight cholesterol. It also encourages blood vessels to loosen up and relax, which in turn lowers blood pressure. Parsley – packed with vitamin K, which is a must for healthy bones Friends with Benefits (no, not that kind or maybe that kind): Connecting with others prevents loneliness and has been proven to contribute to longevity. Spending time with positive people promotes positivity in your life. Find friends that you share healthy interests with and it’s another bonus! Enjoy your benefits – you deserve them and so much more.
