Eating healthy obviously has many positive benefits to both your body and mind. When we eat well we feel good for it, and when we feel good we are much happier and productive people. This cycle then affects your work, your relationships and your overall life in general. It therefore makes sense to eat the healthiest things and reap the benefits of doing so. Nowadays eating healthy is a lot easier than it used to be. Restaurants and shops alike are trying to push people towards eating healthy, responding to the demand of some of its customers. Supermarket aisles are now becoming packed with healthier options, so why shouldn't you take this opportunity to treat your body the way it deserves to be treated.

Why have these foods been chosen as the healthiest?

The 10 healthiest foods we have chosen may not make it onto everybody's list and you may even think differently. However these foods have the essential vitamins and minerals the human body needs to function at its best. Plus, as an added incentive, all of them are delicious and will be a pleasure to eat.

Spinach

If it's good enough for Popeye, it's good enough for you. Spinach is a nutrient-dense superfood and thanks to its increase in popularity it is readily available in nearly all supermarkets. Whether fresh, frozen or even canned as our pipe smoking sailor friend prefers it. Spinach is one of the healthiest foods on the planet, it is packed with energy whilst low in calories. It is also a great source of Vitamins A, K, and essential folate.

Garlic

Agreed, it may make your breath smell, but trust us, the benefits it provides are well worth it. Garlic has been used to fight disease for hundreds of years now as it inhibits the growth of bacteria. It also lowers cholesterol, blood pressure and is a powerful anti-inflammatory. So look past the smell, buy some mouthwash and get yourself some garlic.

Lemons

Lemons have been widely regarded in the health industry as the world's healthiest food. The sour fruit is an alkalising powerfood; they have strong anti-inflammatory qualities and can even help to inhibit the growth of cancer cells. They aid both the liver and bowels, and also have the same amount of Vitamin C as an orange. So, when the world gives you lemons, say thank you, and add a slice to some water and enjoy.

Lentils

As far as nuts go, it's a mixed bag (pause for laughter), some are very good for you and some not. Walnuts have more antioxidants than any other nut, they are also high in Vitamin E, plan serums, omega 3 oils and healthy fats. Studies suggest that walnuts are as effective as olive oil at reducing inflammation and oxidation in the arteries after a fatty meal. With most of our healthy foods, they need to be eaten in moderation, as too many is not good. It is recommended to eat around 8 walnuts a day to achieve the benefits.

Salmon

This fish is an excellent source of omega 3 fatty acids which is linked to reducing the risk of depression, heart disease and cancer. A 3oz serving will contain almost 50% of your daily dose of niacin which can protect the body against Alzheimer's disease and memory loss, hence why it is known as brain food. It is high in protein, vitamins and minerals - potassium, selenium and Vitamin B12.

Avocado

The avocado can divide people, it is the marmite of the fruit world. So what if we told you that eating 1 or 2 a week will give you all the benefit of healthy monounsaturated fats, potassium, folate and Vitamins K, C, B5, B6 and E! Avocados are incredibly nutritious, loaded with heart healthy fatty acids and are high in fibre. The benefits to eating this 'alligator pear' are the lowering of cholesterol and triglyceride levels, they protect your eyes, relieve symptoms of arthritis and may help to prevent cancer. So if you haven't tried it, please do, and if you didn't like it, maybe give it another chance.
