Tomato Sauce
Every family has their own secret tomato sauce for everything from pasta to pizzas to even dipping sauces. The next time you whip up your version, know that tomato juice has been studied extensively, and this little vegetable has the power to help lower the bad cholesterol in your blood (lipoprotein). It also has high amounts of lycopene, which helps the skin look younger and also helps protect against heart disease.

Brussels Sprouts
Brussels sprouts might have an adverse smell, and for some of us, an interesting taste as well, but these little green sprouts have loads of nutrition. Since they belong to the cruciferous family of vegetables, they have high amounts of glucosinolates, potassium, iron, and protein. All this means they act like a warrior body detox-er, helping to fight against cancer, and improve the overall health of your heart. Brussels sprouts might be a bit unpalatable during warmer weather, but the frosts of winter cause their summertime chemical reactions to cool down, as they then produce more sugar.
