Nutrient-Rich Berries
Author: AGRIHORTICO
Publisher: AGRIHORTICO
ISBN:
Category : Gardening
Languages : en
Pages : 104
Book Description
Berries are considered as the most nutritious plant-based foods as all types of edible berry fruits are excellent source of easily digestible dietary fiber, antioxidants, vitamins and minerals. In fact, several scientific studies have confirmed the fact that berries such as strawberries, blackberries, raspberries, cranberries and blueberries are the most nutritious antioxidant rich foods available today. Since these berries are antioxidant rich, they have anti-cancer properties as well. Antioxidants are capable of scavenging the free radicals present within our body and thus capable of reducing free radical damage of our body cells. That is how regular berry consumption prevents lifestyle diseases such as cancer, obesity, and diabetes.

The Adaptation Diet presents a plan clinically proven to lower levels of cortisol, the main stress hormone and a major component of the obesity epidemic. By reducing excess cortisol, you can: • Decrease your risk for diabetes, heart disease, cancer, and high blood pressure • Lose the fat around your midsection and increase your lean muscle mass • Improve your ability to adapt to emotional and situational stress Dr. Charles Moss takes readers through a three-step program—detoxification, elimination of common food allergens, and the implementation of an anti-inflammatory diet—with specific advice on the avoidance of toxins and the inclusion of key bioactive, cortisol-controlling foods and nutrients such as flaxseed powder, cold water fish, specialized herbs, and vitamins. In addition, using the newly emerging science of epigenetics, he explains how diet and environment influence our biological destiny, and he provides more than 100 delicious recipes, as well as menu plans, for life-long control of biochemical stress. You’ll learn which foods protect gene expression and help reduce your risk for obesity as well as how to protect your children’s gene expression before they are even born. By following the right dietary suggestions, we can change ourselves right down to our genes and reduce our chances for disease.
