In this section, we'll look at ten foods that make a great addition to any diet.

1. Kale: Kale is a powerhouse when it comes to fibre and nutrients. Not surprisingly, it's become the darling of the healthy eating set in recent years.
2. Sweet Potatoes: Mom's sweet potato casserole (although totally delicious) just doesn't do this superfood justice. Sweet potatoes are actually considered one of the world's healthiest foods. In this section, find out why.
3. Honey: This "liquid gold" is Mother Nature's sweetener of choice--and it's loaded with health benefits!
4. Cucumber: A healthy, hydrating (and cancer-fighting) veggie--and an essential for making delicious pickles to snack on year round!
5. Grapefruit: These fruits are packed with Vitamin C, helpful for protecting your cells from free radical damage that triggers inflammation in the body.
6. Jalapeños: The capsaicin found in jalapeños is a powerful anti-inflammatory that helps promote healthy blood flow, and studies show that it may also be a promising natural cancer treatment.
7. Chocolate: Chocolate is chock full of antioxidants--the same cell-protecting substances found in many fruits and vegetables that may help prevent cancers.
8. Peppermint: Mint has been used for centuries in a variety of cultures as a natural digestive aid and all-around tummy tamer.
9. Blueberries: Considered "brain food," blueberries have the ability to fight toxic proteins.
10. Lemon: The antioxidants (called bioflavonoids) in lemon are responsible for its many health benefits, which include stimulating faster weight loss.
11. Protein: Think of protein as the construction worker nutrient of the body. On a basic level, protein gives us energy. But it also contributes to maintaining, building, and repairing muscle.
12. Cholesterol: You hear the term cholesterol all the time, with references to good and bad foods, and possible health implications. But do you really know what it is, and how to make healthy, educated choices? We break all the complicated research down into some fun facts and manageable bits of information.
