Most of us don't think about our white fruits and vegetables being in our healthy color code, but they are. Pears, bananas, mushrooms, cauliflower, onions, and even garlic are very healthy choices. These fruits and vegetables will help to reduce the risk of heart disease as well as lower LDL Cholesterol.
Bananas are currently the most popular fruit in North America. They are a potassium powerhouse. They have a low water count and a high carbohydrate count. After exercise, a banana is a quick source of energy for your body. They will replenish your body with potassium, magnesium, vitamin C, and folate.
Mushrooms provide immune boosting qualities. Onions have a peptide shown to reduce bone loss and guard against cancer. Garlic helps to attack bacteria that may cause stomach ulcers. Cauliflower offers protection against certain cancers. Pears provide your body with fiber and vitacim C - as long as you leave the skin on.
Bananas, onions, mushrooms, garlic, and cauliflower are low on the pesticide scale, so you can purchase these in the regular produce section. Pears are on the high range and I would suggest buying organic.
