No.7 Fish
Fish is low in saturated fat, high in protein, and an excellent source of omega 3 fatty acids, which have been proven to work wonders for the heart.
It is well known that fish is good for its ability to improve vision. Adding fish to our daily diet list can help fight macular degeneration, glaucoma, and dry-eye syndrome.
The more exciting and encouraging aspect is that the consumption of fish helps to keep the skin in good condition because the omega-3 essential fatty acid EPA that has been found in fish oil can help to prevent wrinkles and delay the ageing process of the skin.
Besides, fish, particularly the fish oil in the tuna, has anti inflammatory properties; therefore, it is effective in reducing inflammation in blood and tissues.
No.6 Dairy products
Dairy products including yogurt, milk, as well as cheese, are rich in vitamin D and calcium that are good for bones and teeth. That is why they are indispensable in our daily life.
Yogurt in particular has become more and more welcome, especially in the summer. Many yogurts are made by active and good bacteria like the probiotics, which is friendly for the digestive tract.
As they are made from milk, yogurt eaters can also get animal protein (about 9 grams per 6-ounce serving), plus several other nutrients found in dairy, like calcium, vitamin B-2, B-12, potassium, and magnesium.
No.5 Carrots
Carrots are the second most popular type of vegetable after potatoes. Being rich in vitamin A, they can help to keep smooth and shiny hair.
Apart from that, carrots are also useful for treating uneven skin tones because of pigmentation. The vitamin A and other nutrients contained in carrots can efficiently nourish the skin, prevent dry skin, and other skin blemishes.
No.4 Tofu
Tofu or bean curd is a well-known health food rich in protein, along with unsaturated fat, and a good source of calcium, iron, as well as phytoestrogens.
For those who have concerns about breast cancer, the bean curd is a good choice because the phytoestrogens loaded in it can act like a mild form of hormone replacement therapy.
No.3 Onions
Onions and other allium vegetables are characterized by their rich content of thiosulfinates, sulfides, sulfoxides, and other odoriferous sulfur compounds.
The most eye-catching medicinal effect of onions lies in their function to prevent cardiovascular disease because they can diminish the risk of blood clots.
No.2 White gourd
Although 96% of its content is water, it has 0.2 % protein, making the white gourd a nutritious vegetable.
White gourd also contains collagen and elastic fibers; therefore, for those who favor the food, they get the added benefit of skin care from it.
No.1 Broccoli
Broccoli has been proven to be the most efficient anti-aging vegetable, and therefore, it has been ranked as a "super vegetable" rich in vitamin C.
Recently, broccoli has made the headlines regarding three components found in the vegetable. For instance, indole-3-carbinol has drawn the attention of those seeking to prevent hormone-related cancers, such as breast- and prostate cancer.
