 The sweet potato is high, especially for those who practice physical activities as it is a low glycemic complex carbohydrate, which means that its absorption is slower, releasing glucose into the bloodstream slowly and without much stimulating hormone called insulin (responsible for increasing hunger and by the accumulation of fat). High in fiber (helps promote a healthy digestive system), it is also a source of iron, vitamin C and potassium, besides presenting high content of vitamin E, contains vitamin A and C (antioxidant and anti-inflammatory).

Broccoli, one of the foods that I like, is a rich source of vitamin C and dietary fiber. It is also an excellent source of beta-carotene and protein addition is rich in various minerals such as Magnesium, Calcium, Iron and Zinc. It has few calories, only 35 per 100 gram portion thereof.

A full meal, especially with roasted garlic, which is excellent for digestion eliminating waste from the body. Great combination, is not it? So let’s get down to business …
