🍁 Maple Syrup as an Alternative to Refined Sugar

Maple syrup contains around half the calories of refined sugar, and is a much more nutritious choice. It's loaded with antioxidants that protect your body's cells from damage and reduce the visible signs of aging.

Maple syrup is also a brilliant source of manganese and zinc, which boosts your metabolism and immune system. In addition, it's perfect for your skin and can protect against skin blemishes, dry skin, and redness.

Finally, maple syrup has been shown to protect against various chronic ailments and diseases, including arthritis, cancer, diabetes, inflammatory bowel disease, and heart disease.

💚 Zucchini Added to Smoothies

Zucchini is rich in vitamins B6 and C, potassium, folate, magnesium, carotenoids, and omega-3 and omega-9. This vegetable is refreshing because it has high water content.

Foods rich in water content are tremendous for the skin, especially if you suffer from dry skin. In the winter, more people suffer from dry skin, so by adding extra zucchini into your diet in the cooler months, you can moisturize the skin from within to eliminate any dry flaky skin.

Not only is zucchini full of antioxidants that are important for the skin, but it is a low-calorie vegetable and full of fiber. Eating "zoodles" zucchini spiralized into spaghetti noodles is a perfect lower-calorie and low-carb option to pasta.

Zucchini is also a terrific option for those avoiding gluten by replacing gluten-filled pasta with zucchini noodles. The magnesium and potassium in zucchini help calm the nervous system. When you relax the nervous system, you help lower your blood pressure.

Zucchini Key Nutrients

Vitamin B6 | Vitamin C | Magnesium | Folate | Potassium | Carotenoids | Omega-3 | Oleic acid

🍓 Strawberries are a Low-Sugar Fruit
