Behind the Scenes - 302designs

I have been doing pretty well with my New Year’s resolution of improving my health, if I do say so myself.  If anything, I have become more aware of what I put into my body each day and what effects it will have.  Sure, I still eat the occasional cheeseburger but discovering the joys of exercise and healthier foods has been exciting.

I thought for this post, you might be interested in some natural health boosters.  Whether you’ve got aches or pains or want to focus better, there is likely a food or vitamin you can take to help you out.  Here are some suggestions from WebMD:

• Dark chocolate contains antioxidants and lowers blood pressure
• Fish (and now various dairy products enriched with Omega 3 Fatty Acids) can lower blood pressure, fight heart disease and improve brain function, even helping prevent depression
• Nuts and oils can block the absorption of cholesterol
• Yogurt can prevent urinary tract infections, prevent digestive problems and boost your immune system
• Green tea contains antioxidants that fight cancer, heart disease and stroke
