Health Benefits
Oats
Oats are a powerhouse of nutrients that can benefit your health in a multitude of ways. They are naturally low in fat and sodium, while containing an abundance of fiber, vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants. Eating oats on a regular basis can help maintain healthy blood pressure levels, cholesterol levels, and even blood sugar. Oats also provide essential energy to fuel the body throughout the day without the crash often experienced after consuming sugary snacks. Not only are oats a great source of well-balanced nourishment for adults, but they can also be a beneficial snack for children as it promotes healthy growth and development.
Bananas
Bananas are a delicious and nutritious snack, full of essential vitamins, minerals, and fiber that can help keep your body fit and healthy. A single banana contains moderate levels of vitamin C and B-6, as well as magnesium, potassium, and manganese, all important for optimal functioning. Bananas can also provide energy; their natural sugar content makes them an ideal pre or post-gym boost. In addition to these benefits, bananas are known to aid digestion due to their high fiber content.
Maple Syrup
Rich in antioxidants, maple syrup has been found to reduce inflammation, strengthen the immune system, and protect the body from cell damage; this makes it a great option for anyone wanting to improve their overall health and well-being. Maple syrup also contains essential minerals including calcium, potassium, and zinc, contributing to stronger bones and improved digestion. Not only that, but one tablespoon of pure maple syrup is equivalent to 10% of your daily requirement for manganese – an important trace mineral required for nerve communication, ligament and tendon production, metabolism of many vitamins and minerals, and more!
