From Shereen Jegtvig, your Guide to Nutrition
This week I'm going to introduce you to black rice, which isn't as common as white or brown rice. I'll also explain how eating the right foods might help get you though the cold and flu season and tell you all about some superfoods for eye health.

Have a great week!

Shereen


Black Rice
Black rice is rich in anthocyanins, which are powerful antioxidants, much like the compounds found in blueberries, plus black rice is also a good source of fiber.

Eat Well to Help Reduce Your Risk of Cold and Flu
The time sure goes by quickly, doesn't it? Summer vacation's over, school's back in session and that means the cold and flu season will start soon.

Superfoods That May Help Keep Your Eyes Healthy
These superfoods are rich in vitamins, minerals and phytochemicals that may help keep your eyes and vision healthy.
