Beets
These root veggies are not only healthy but versatile, too. Besides, they are low in calories. For instance, one cup of beets (approximately 136 grams) contains 59 calories. On top of that, the same amount will give you 13 percent of the DV for potassium. And if you have trouble managing your high blood pressure, maybe it’s time to add some beets to your diet.
Broccoli
While it’s not as loved as carrots, for example, no one can deny the fact that broccoli is literally one of the healthiest veggies on the planet. Evidence shows that broccoli consumption may even prevent some types of cancer. Plus, 90 grams of broccoli (approximately one cup) packs around 30 calories and more than 100 percent of the recommended daily amount for vitamin C.
P.S.: If you’re a smoker, it’s a good idea to consume broccoli more often as your body may need larger amounts of vitamin C.
