Simple Health Cures

   Commonly  referred to as one of nature’s “perfect foods,’ bananas are prehaps best known for packing potassium, but they’re also good source of arthritis-fighting Vitamin B6, folate, and Vitamin C. They’re are an important player in your weight loss efforts, because you fell full after eating one without consuming a large number of calories.

   If you are in need of Vitamin C but aren’t a big fan of citrus fruits, reach for a green pepper. a single green pepper contains 176 precent of your daily need for Vitamin C and colorful red and yellow varieties have more than double that amount. That makes them richer in C than citrus fruits, but sweet peppers are also excellent sources of Vitamin B6 and folate.

   Vitamin D is a tough one to come by in foods, but shrimps fills that bill, since they have about 30 precent of the daily recommended amount in about three ounces much more than a cup of milk. Shrimp also contains omega-3 fatty acids and Vitamin C, along with other nutrients essential for general health, including iron and Vitamin B12.

   Hard or soft, fresh or ripened, cheese in all it’s variety is an excellent source of calium for bones, and protein for muscles and other joint-supporting tissues. Cheese can be easily sliced to put on a cracker or a sandwich, grated into your favorite recipe, or eaten alongside an apple or pear for a fresh, quick snack.

   Green tea contains hundreds of powerful antioxidant chemicals called polyphenols and has been cited for helping prevent problems ranging from cancer to heart disease. But studies also suggest green tea may help prevent or ease symptoms of rheumatoid arthritis.
