The health-promoting nutrients contained in the World’s Healthiest Foods are necessary for body systems, tissues, and cells to functionat their peak, which is essential not only for enhancing healthy
weight loss, but also for vibrant health and energy. (For more on nutrient-rich foods on page 30.) Hundreds of epidemiological studies have looked at the relationship between nutrient-rich foods, such as the World’s Healthiest Foods, and health conditions such as obesity, high cholesterol, high blood pressure, and elevated blood sugar levels. Not only can these foods reduce your chances of experiencing chronic conditions but they can also enhance your day-to-day health. For example, they will give you more energy, help you think more clearly, make your hair and skin more lustrous, and contribute to an overall feeling of vitality. What makes them beneficial to health is the health-promoting nutrients they contain. Not because they are rich in one or two specific nutrients but because they contain the whole range of important ones. This is essential because what researchers have consistently found is that nutrients working together provide greater health benefits than those working alone. What that means is that there is no miracle food or miracle nutrient. There is only the miracle of how the different aspects of your nutrient-rich World’s Healthiest Foods work together to provide you with optimal health and weight loss.
