Concord Grapes


               Concord grapes are known for their dark purple skin

               and seeds, which are full of polyphenols, a compound
               proven to boost your brain power, keeping you sharp

               and alert.


               They also bolster your arteries, reducing the risk of

               heart disease while increasing blood flow to the brain.


               Since these grapes are harvested for a few short weeks during the fall, finding them fresh is very

               difficult, so opt for drinking 100% pure grape juice instead to get all the benefits of these potent

               fruits.


               Mushrooms


               Many studies have been carried out on the healing

               powers of mushrooms.


                   •  They can reduce and prevent inflammation

                   •  Help fight cancer

                   •  Boost the immune system

                   •  Detoxify the body naturally
                   •  Protect the heart

                   •  Mushrooms also provide B vitamins, which are

                       crucial for turning your food into sustainable energy and promoting healthy metabolism

                   •  Mushrooms are the only plant food that contains vitamin D, which helps the body absorb

                       calcium and supports strong bones.
                   •  A great bonus is the type of fiber found in mushrooms, called beta-glucan, which helps

                       with weight management. Additionally, mushrooms are very filling, delicious, and super

                       low in calories, making them a great addition to your weight loss efforts.
