A diet rich in fruits and vegetables may reduce the risk of heart disease and protect against certain types of cancers.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Protein:<\/strong> The building block for bones, muscle, cartilage, skin, and blood. Varying your protein source can provide a range of nutrients such as: B vitamins, Vitamin E, Iron, Zinc, and Magnesium.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Grains:<\/strong> Making half your grains whole grain provides health benefits such as healthy digestion, reduce cholesterol and risk of heart disease. B Vitamins, Magnesium, and Dietary Fiber are some of the many nutrients provided by the grains food group.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Dairy:<\/strong> Can be part of a healthy balanced meal.

Lactose-free dairy products and dairy alternatives can be used as substitutes for the dairy food group.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Women\u2019s Health &#8211; Key Nutrients<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Calcium:<\/strong> A mineral the body needs to build strong bones and teeth, as well as reduce the risk of osteoporosis.

Iron-rich foods include lean red meats, chicken, seafood, beans, lentils, spinach, and fortified cereals. Pairing with foods rich in Vitamin C increases the absorption of iron from foods.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Folate:<\/strong> Known as Vitamin B9, an important nutrient to help your body make blood cells. During pregnancy, folate helps prevent certain birth defects (Neural Tube Defects). Food sources include spinach and other dark green leafy vegetables, oranges, nuts, beans, lean beef, and cereals fortified with folic acid.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Omega 3- Fatty Acids:<\/strong> An essential nutrient that acts as an anti-inflammatory and supports heart, brain, and eye health. Omega-3 food sources include fish, chia seeds, walnuts, and hemp seeds.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Vitamin D:<\/strong> Paired with Calcium, Vitamin D helps build strong bones and reduce the risk of osteoporosis.
