    Although almond is rich in calorie, it also contains a lot of phytosterols, which can lower the harmful cholesterol in the body and help to stabilize the level of blood sugar in the diabetic patients. What's more, it is also rich in amino acids, which can increase the level of testosterone and promote the growth of muscle. In addition, almond also contains a large number of vitamin E, which is very good for the repairing of sunburn. At the same time, it can also protect the blood vessels; enhance the memory and cognitive ability.

    Second, tomato
    First of all, red tomato contains a great amount of lycopene. Secondly, processed tomato is better than fresh tomato, because the lycopene can be more easily absorbed by the body after it is processed. Studies have shown that lycopene-rich diet can reduce the risk of bladder, lung, prostate, skin and stomach cancer and intestinal diseases, and help to delay skin aging.

    Third, plum
    Plum is rich in copper and boron, which can prevent osteoporosis. What's more, plum also contains dietary fiber called as inulin, which can destroy the harmful bacteria in the intestinal tract, so as to maintain the digestive tract in a healthy acidic environment and promote the absorption of calcium.

    The probiotics in yogurt can maintain the health of intestinal tract and improve the function of immune system, and it can also help prevent cancer.

    Fifth, walnut
    The nutrition of walnut is very comprehensive. The omega-3 fatty acids contained in walnut are more than that contained in salmon. In addition, it contains a large number of polyphenols, which are more abundant than that contained in red wine, while polyphenols have an anti-inflammatory effect.

    Sixth, black beans
    Research has shown that eating 3 ounces of black beans every day can reduce the risk of heart attack by 38%. What's more, black beans are also very beneficial to the health of brain, because black beans contain a large number of anthocyanins, which can improve the function of brain.
