Fiber

Fiber is great at overseeing that your digestive system is running smoothly, helps ease

constipation and keeps everything flowing smoothly. Fiber also helps moderate your weight,
decreasing your chances of obesity. It also controls

blood sugar levels and lowers your risk of diabetes.

Vegetables and whole grains provide a wonderful

supply of dietary fiber, which also monitors your blood

pressure, keeps your cholesterol levels in check, and

lowers risks of inflammation.

Steel cut oats are high in soluble fiber, which reduces

bad LDL cholesterol. Rich in healthier complex
carbohydrates, whole oatmeal is one of the best-known comfort foods that boosts the release of

serotonin, a feel-good hormone in the brain.

Yogurt

Yogurt is of course known for its high levels of calcium, which helps protect bones from

osteoporosis. Yogurt also has the good type of bacteria, which helps the digestive system do its

job, as it should. Yogurt has protein as well, for cell health and support of muscle, which naturally
declines with age.

Choose yogurt that is fortified with vitamin D in order to get the most benefit out of the calcium,
since vitamin D is needed for calcium absorption.
