Chicken

Chicken is the first superfood listed that isn’t a fruit or vegetable, and that’s for a very good reason! This amazingly lean meat has less saturated fat and cholesterol than any other red meat. Because of its health benefits compared to red meat, meat-eaters often choose baked, stir-fried, or grilled chicken over that cholesterol-dense burger option for dinner. Most people love chicken (that are not vegetarians and vegans) and you are probably eating a lot of the meat already.

Chickpeas

Chickpeas are much more than the tasty main ingredient of everyone’s favorite side dish: hummus. While small and seemingly innocuous, these little peas are packed with nutrition for your heart. Each one of these little legumes is loaded with potassium, fiber, Vitamin B-6, and Vitamin C. More than any other legume out there, chickpeas use this special combination of nutrients to help reduce your chances of developing heart disease. We love hummus, too!
