  • Subtitles section
  • You are what you eat, and if you eat these vegetables, you are healthy.
  • Welcome to WatchMojo.com, and today we'll be counting down our picks for the top 10 vegetables.
  • 10. Eggplant Vegetarians know eggplant's high fiber content makes it a hearty veggie.
  • With its practically non-existent fat and calorie counts, it's a great weight loss tool, as long as you don't smother it in parmesan cheese.
  • Eggplants also have heart-healthy components, potassium, which can help reduce strokes and dementia, and antioxidants that prevent damage to brain cells.
  • So put this purple plant in your plan pronto.
  • 9. Beets The nutrient that makes beets red helps fight cancer and lower the risk of heart disease, while beets folate helps pregnant ladies metabolize amino acids.
  • Low-fat, low-cal, high-fiber, and high-carb, beets keep your body fueled, blood sugar levels normal, and digestive system healthy.
  • Potassium, magnesium, and manganese keep everything running properly as well.
  • But, believe it or not, beet greens contain more nutrients than the root.
  • 8. Asparagus Love it or hate it, asparagus ranks high as a free radical fighting powerhouse.
  • A low-cal source of potassium, protein, fiber, and folate, asparagus is known for its cleansing properties, which means it makes you go number one and number two.
  • With vitamins A, B6, C, and K, cardiovascular health and immunity receive a boost, and iron keeps the oxygen flowing.
  • Plus, some researchers claim it helps hangovers.
  • 7. Alfalfa sprouts Raw dieters know sprouts are full of plant-based proteins, and unlike the also important beans and peas, they don't need to be cooked to be enjoyed.
  • They're bursting with antioxidants and can help with anything from heart disease and cancer to osteoporosis and menopause.
  • Their fiber helps you feel fuller longer.
  • Plus, they boast nutrients like calcium, potassium, zinc, and manganese, and a bunch of vitamins between A and K. 6. Carrots We've heard the old wives' tale, carrots are good for sight.
  • Is it true?
  • Beta-carotene makes carrots orange, and humans metabolize it into vitamin A, which in turn keeps eyes, skin, and hair healthy.
  • Carrots' vitamin C keeps cardiovascular systems running smoothly and promotes iron absorption, while vitamin K ensures your blood clots.
  • Various other nutrients and minerals are Mother Nature's way of preventing problems from cataracts to cancers.
  • 5. Dark green vegetables Whether it's leafy greens like spinach, Swiss chard, or kale, or cruciferous veggies like broccoli, cabbage, or Brussels sprouts, they're lean green disease-fighting machines.
  • Their folate is great during pregnancy, while antioxidants and phytonutrients help against colds and cancers.
  • The iron, calcium, magnesium, potassium, and vitamins in dark greens promote overall health, but broccoli is especially talented at preventing stomach, lung, and rectal cancers, and type 2 diabetes.
  • 4.
  • Tomatoes Low-cal but nutrient-dense, a tomato's most impressive feature is lycopene, which protects against breast, colon, lung, skin, and prostate cancers, reduces cholesterol, and regulates blood pressure.
  • Beside fiber and heart-healthy nutrients, vitamins like A, which helps skin and eyes, C, which fights infection and maintains connective tissue, and K, which prevents osteoporosis, make tomatoes indispensable.
  • Technically they're a fruit, but call us when you have one for dessert.
  • 3. Bell peppers These yummy veggies are also called capsicum or sweet peppers.
  • Red ones are healthiest, with more lycopene, carotene, and vitamins A, B, C, and K. Those prevent cancers and keep teeth, gums, and eyesight in tip-top shape.
  • Inflammation from arthritis and asthma and age-related diseases don't stand a chance against their antioxidants, and fiber, potassium, and manganese are a few more of this superfood's benefits.
  • 2. Sweet potatoes Smokers and diabetics can benefit from eating this vegetable.
  • Vitamin A protects against emphysema, while a low glycemic index rating keeps insulin levels normal.
  • Sweet potatoes also crush other veggies in nutrient density, with more fiber, protein, and complex carb content, plus anti-cancer vitamins A and C, iron, and calcium.
  • Beta-carotene targets free radicals, vitamins and antioxidants fight inflammation and heart disease, and potassium lowers blood pressure.
  • Superfood for sure.
  • 1. Allium foods Adding Flavorful and healthful properties to meals, the allium family includes leeks, chives, garlic, and onions.
  • Famous in herbal medicine, both onions and garlic boast antibiotic advantages, increase immunity, and fight inflammation, while garlic is used to treat coughs and colds.
  • Alliums also balance cholesterol levels, help prevent hardened arteries, lower BP, and fight certain cancers and neurological diseases like Alzheimer's.
  • And that ain't even everything.
  • Adding any extra fruits and veggies to your diet is a smart move, but like anything, do it in moderation.
