Help Keep Your Body Strong

As most people know, we turn October pink for breast cancer awareness. The more you know about it, the better you can keep your body healthy and strong to fight it. While many cases are hereditary, there are ways to help reduce your risk of all cancers through a healthy lifestyle packed with the right foods, nutrients, and plenty of fitness.

Green Tea

Green tea has many health benefits, but it is also an anti-inflammatory powerhouse. That means it can help curb inflammation in the body. The polyphenols found in green tea are also potent antioxidants that prevent cellular damage by free radicals in the body.

Fish

Nearly all types of fish are good for your health. However, the best is oily, which means fish rich in omega-3 fatty acids, like salmon. Healthy fats contain anti-inflammatory properties to protect against and fight disease. Of course, not everyone loves to eat fish. If that's you, you're luck. You can get all the benefits of fish with supplements and avoid the taste you can't stomach. The Alaya Naturals Fish Oil  soft gels have an enteric coating to prevent the aftertaste some supplements can leave in your mouth, and they are non-GMO.

Plant Proteins

Medical experts recommend eating more vegetables and less meat for healthier eating. This includes increasing your intake of plant proteins like nuts, beans, and soy. These foods are packed with phytochemicals that act as free radical scavengers in your body. You can also stay regular by eating whole grains or fiber-filled fruits and vegetables. If you have trouble getting enough vegetables in your diet, consider a plant-based protein powder to supplement your wellness like Alaya Naturals Plant Protein  in vanilla flavor. An organic, non-whey protein powder is an excellent way to increase your intake in a single serving. To use, mix the protein with your favorite smoothie recipe or low-fat Greek yogurt.

Keep These Foods On-Hand

What other foods can you keep around your home that are packed with cancer-fighting properties? Add these items to your next shopping list:
  • Berries
  • Leafy greens
  • Carrots
  • Broccoli
  • Nuts
  • Citrus
Nutrition is vital in keeping a strong and healthy body. These ideas are excellent for supporting your overall health. On top of that, get regular breast cancer screenings and always speak with medical professional before adding any new dietary supplements to your wellness plan.
