Top 10 Healthiest Fruits for you

     

          Losing weight can be very expensive, and daunting task. That's why I'm here to show you the top ten healthiest fruits for losing weight. There are lists upon lists of foods - and pills - that are supposedly "good for you". I dug through all of these sites and managed to pick out the top 10 that actually work!

10. Blueberries These berries are rich in antioxidants. They are a good source of dietary fiber, vitamin C, and vitamin   K. Its recommended that you have at least 20 to 30 grams of fiber per day, so blueberries would be great to snack on throughout the day. 

9. Pears

If you have ever had a pear you will know they fill you up quick. They are very high in fiber and have a good source of vitamin C and potassium.

8. Apples

Not only are apples good for your health but they are good for your teeth too! Now, this does NOT mean you can forget about your toothbrush and toothpaste, but biting into an apple stimulates the production of saliva in your mouth, reducing tooth decay by lowering the levels of bacteria in your mouth.



7. Bananas

Bananas are a good way to get vitamin C and B6, as well as manganese which helps keep your bones healthy and increases metabolic activity in the body. They are also high in antioxidants and protein.

6. Avacado

Your body needs fat...Healthy fats to be exact. Avocados contain monounsaturated fat which is a type of fat that is both healthy, and necessary for the body. Eating the right amount of fats help boost your cholesterol levels and keep the bad cholesterol levels in a good range.



5. Lemon

Lemons are a good source of vitamin C, potassium, magnesium, and copper. Yes, I know you're thinking "Ew, why would I eat a lemon, it has a sour taste" you don't have to eat a lemon by itself, you can still get all the good stuff in the lemon water. Get a glass of water and squeeze some lemon juice in it to dilute the taste of plain lemons and you're all set!

4. Grapefruit

This fruit is loaded with vitamin C which boosts the immune system. Studies show that grapefruit can help improve blood pressure and lipid levels which are connected with obesity so eating grapefruit may help prevent obesity.











3. Oranges

Oranges are rich in potassium which is in charge of helping the heart function correctly. This fruit can also help protect skin! Oranges are full of beta-carotene. Beta-carotene is an antioxidant that protects the cells in your skin from damage, and premature aging.

2. Pineapples

Pineapples contain numerous vitamins and minerals. Potassium, copper, manganese, calcium, magnesium, vitamin C, beta-carotene, thiamin, vitamin B6, folate, bromelain, soluble and insoluble fiber just to name a few. This fruit boosts your immunity, helps prevent arthritis, speeds up wound healing, and has many other benefits!

1. Pomegranate 

Pomegranates are also very high in antioxidants which help keep low-density lipoprotein from oxidizing and causing hardening of the arteries. Researchers show that pomegranates can help increase oxygen levels in your heart making it easier to breathe and taking that seemingly unavoidable pressure off your chest.
