A healthy diet starts with whole foods! 🌱
With all the flashy food labels out there, this term can feel more confusing than it needs to be. Practically speaking, whole foods are simply foods with one ingredient! (Think: veggies, fruits, nuts, and seeds.)
Eating foods as close to their natural state as possible is the easiest way to nourish your body with what it truly needs. And with each season, our bodies’ needs shift. During winter, it’s especially important to focus on nutrient-dense whole foods. Here are 5 winter staples you’ll want to stock up on:
🍋 Lemons
✨ High in Vitamin C to boost immunity during cold & flu season
✨ Soothes sore throats
✨ Reduces inflammation
✨ Packed with electrolytes to keep you hydrated
🍄 Mushrooms
✨ Rich in Vitamin D (often lacking in winter), great for bones and mood
✨ Helps lower blood pressure for a healthy heart
✨ High in selenium, a powerful antioxidant
🥚 Eggs
✨ A great source of B vitamins to regulate mood—perfect for those early sunsets and chilly days
✨ Contain Vitamin D, aka “Vitamin Sunlight”
🎃 Pumpkin Seeds
✨ High in zinc to strengthen immunity
✨ Improves taste and smell—useful during “cold szn”
✨ Loaded with magnesium to help lower blood pressure
🍠 Sweet Potatoes
✨ Anti-inflammatory and gut-protective thanks to Vitamin A
✨ Boost serotonin with Vitamin B6—your mood will thank you!
Whole foods, whole health!
