Cinnamon
We don’t recommend doing the cinnamon challenge (in fact, we strongly discourage it…), but a pinch of cinnamon here and there can help you lose weight. The spice stimulates the synthesis of insulin, which aids in the regulation of high blood sugar levels. It may even encourage your body to burn fat rather than store it. Cinnamon is a fantastic health keeper for both the inside and outside.

Oranges
Dark green leafy vegetables, oranges and tomatoes, even fresh herbs, are full of vitamins, fiber and minerals. Adding frozen bell peppers, broccoli or onions to casseroles and omelets gives them a quick and convenient boost of color and nutrients. Oranges are not only delicious, but also packed with vitamins. They contain fiber, vitamin C, potassium, nutrients, and pectin. It would also help us lower blood pressure, improve blood vessel function, control cholesterol, and could boost our sodium and protein balance. This fruit would give us a lot of benefit to our body, especially our heart.

Kale
Kale has definitely had its moment in the sun (and then some) but as far as healthy greens go, it certainly deserves praise. Cruciferous green (which is even available at McDonald’s these days) is loaded with health-boosting nutrients like vitamin A, phosphorous, and B vitamins like folic acid, and boasts twice the vitamin C of spinach, another nutritional superstar. Additionally, a study in the journal JRSM Cardiovascular Disease found that a high daily intake of leafy green vegetables and cruciferous vegetables (such as kale) significantly reduced the incidence of several types of cardiovascular disease, the leading cause of death among women in the United States. Feel free to add some kale to a variety of meals ranging from egg dishes to tacos, to beverages like juices and smoothies.
