Brown Rice
Well, we’re sure you’ve heard of brown rice, but do you know why it’s so healthy? Filled with phytonutrients, brown rice can actually decrease your risk of diabetes, heart disease, and cancer. Yes, it’s a starch, but it’s full of fiber and it’s relatively low-calorie, so definitely incorporate brown rice into your diet now and then!
Carrots
We all know the old urban legend: if you eat too many carrots, you’ll turn into one. Well, don’t worry about that – carrots are actually super good for you. They’re extremely high in water and fiber, keeping you full afterward for quite some time. The orange pigment (called beta-carotene) won’t actually turn your skin orange, but it will help strengthen your immune system and eyesight.
