The World’s Healthiest Foods are nourishment created by Nature – nothing more added, and nothing taken away. The key to maximizing the many nutritional benefits offered by The World’s Healthiest Foods is to enjoy them as part of an overall healthy way of eating. If you choose to rely on the World’s Healthiest Foods for the majority of your meals, you will automatically be:

  • Eating fresh fruits and vegetables, whole grains, nuts and seeds, lean meat, fish, and olive oil as the main components of your diet. Without effort, you will be consuming a rich variety of nutrients, including all the essential nutrients that will promote your optimal health and energy.

  • Using monounsaturated fats like pure extra virgin olive oil that do not increase your risk for cardiovacular disease, rather than hydrogenated fats (also called trans-fatty acids or trans-fats)

    .

  • Using foods rich in heart-healthy, anti-inflammatory omega-3 fatty acids, such as salmon, tuna, walnuts, and flax seeds.

  • Substituting non-fat or low-fat dairy products as alternatives to whole milk products. You’ll be getting the same vital nutrients as those in whole milk, but with far fewer calories and much less saturated fat.
  • Using only lean meats and getting more protein with less saturated fat.
  • Avoiding white sugar, “white” (wheat rather than whole wheat) flour, white pasta and white (refined) rice. By avoiding these highly refined foods, which have had the majority of their key nutrients removed and remain good sources only of simple sugars and refined carbohydrates, you will lower your risk of high blood pressure, elevated cholesterol, obesity, Type II diabetes, and cancer.
