Superfoods!

If one of your New Year’s resolutions is to start eating better, try adding some “superfoods” to your diet.

They’re foods that contain concentrated amounts of nutrients—they can help you do everything from lose weight to live longer. Plus, you can eat less of them and still get more good stuff than in many other foods.

Here are the top seven:
Spinach
 It contains lutein, a nutrient that can help prevent macular degeneration, the leading cause of blindness that comes with age.
Blueberries
 According to scientists at Tufts University, if you eat just half a cup of blueberries a day, you may be able to increase your brain power or perhaps delay the onset of memory loss.
Tea
 A study published in the Annals of Epidemiology showed that people who drink one and a half or more cups of tea a day have less of a chance of developing certain types of cancer, including colon cancer.
Broccoli
 Researchers at UCLA say that if you eat broccoli more than three times a week, it could cut your risk of developing certain types of cancer in half.
Tomatoes
 They contain lycopene, a nutrient that makes them red and also reduces a man’s risk of developing prostate cancer. Eating 10 or more tomatoes or tomato products, such as canned, can reduce the risk by 30 percent.
Soy Several studies show soy may help lower your bad cholesterol level and reduce the risk for heart disease and heart attack. You can get soy in tofu or soy milk.
Oatmeal It’s great for everything from breakfast to baking, and it can reduce heart disease as well. One study showed that people who ate oats for just eight weeks decreased their bad cholesterol level by nearly 40 percent. Eat about a cup and a half a day to reap those benefits.
