  • Healthy Foods, From A to Z


    Just because my mind concocts the most random ideas, I had one this morning, to make a list of healthy foods from A to Z. After filling in a decent amount, I decided to cheat and did a Google search, where I found this list. Unfortunately the list was missing certain healthy foods, I guess they are not considered among the "healthiest." But I continued to fill in where I could for a more complete list. And here it is:

    Asparagus, Avocados, Apples, Almonds, Artichoke, Ackee, Apricot
    Beets, Bell peppers. Broccoli, Brussels sprouts, Bananas. Blueberries, Barley, Brown rice, Buckwheat, Black beans. Beef, Black strap molasses, Bokchoy
    Cabbage, Carrots. Cauliflower, Celery, Collard greens, Cucumbers, Cantaloupe, Cranberries, Cashews, Corn, Cheese, Cod, Cayenne pepper, Chili pepper, Cilantro, Cinnamon, Cloves, Cumin, Cane juice, Chicken

    Eggplant, Eggs
    Fennel, Figs, Flax seeds,
    Garlic, Green beans, Green peas, Grapefruit, Grapes, Ginger, Garbanzo beans
    Halibut, Honey, Honeydew
    I count find any healthy food that began with the letter "I."

    Leeks, Lemon/Limes, Lentils, Lima beans, Lamb, Lettuce
    Mushrooms, Mustard greens, Mustard seeds, Millet, Milk, Miso
