Natural Solutions Magazine Names Must-Have Foods

by Sandy Mitchell on June 6th, 2008

Natural Solutions, a Colorado-based healthy eating magazine, has named their choices for “must-have” healthy foods. And guess what? They are some of the same foods that we’ve been talking about.

The article emphasizes that spending a little more on healthy foods (rather than fad diet products and books) can help us “lose weight, look younger, decrease inflammation in our bodies, and feel more energetic.” So what are these magical foods? The list includes:

Freezer: salmon, black cod, ground bison, ground turkey, frozen organic berries and vegetables, edamame, flaxseeds, and whole-grain breads and waffles

Refigerator: pomegranate juice (pictured at right), organic salad greens, nut butters, avocados, omega-3 eggs, pre-cut veggies, hummus, lemons, limes, and salsa

Pantry: canned beans, short-grain instant brown rice, organic canned tomatoes, steel-cut oats, quinoa, amaranth, unsalted nuts, and extra-virgin olive oil
