Eating your way to healthy lifestyle

"Broccoli whisks carcinogens out of your cells. An onion a day
keeps strokes and heart attacks away. Apples enliven your
immune system. Garlic lowers your cholesterol. Wild yams
nurture natural estrogen. Carrots chase away free radicals.
... "People throw away massive amounts of money on
supplements. It's far better to eat the food than take the
supplement. If you eat carrots, you're getting beta carotene,
dietary fiber, carotenoids, phytochemicals. If you take a beta
carotene supplement, that's all you're getting. And you're not
even sure it's being absorbed," Touger-Decker reiterates.
"I rarely recommend vitamins unless a client is
malnourished," states nutritionist and registered dietitian
Elissa Fleiss, Ph.D. "If you need vitamins, something is
wrong with your diet."
