3. Sweet Potatoes

Sweet potatoes are root vegetables that have tremendous benefits for your health. They are full of antioxidants, fiber, vitamins A, C, potassium, and zinc. 

The dietary fiber in sweet potatoes improves gut function. Research indicates it acts as a prebiotic, promoting healthy gut bacteria growth and better digestion.

In addition, this vegetable affects the immune system, prevents cancer, and regulates blood sugar and cholesterol levels. With all these benefits, it’s no wonder this vegetable should be included in your weekly veggie lineup. 

4. Kale

Kale is often called a superfood, and for good reason. Just one cup or 21g of raw kale contains potassium, calcium, vitamins A, C, K, and copper. This leafy green powerhouse is also rich in fiber, manganese, and antioxidants, particularly lutein and zeaxanthin, which may combat inflammation and prevent chronic diseases. 

A study finds that eating kale with a high-carb meal prevents sugar spikes more effectively than eating a high-carb diet alone. If you are not adding this wonder veggie to your salads, it’s high time you should. 

5. Beets

Beets are colorful root vegetables that have an earthy aroma, and while they might not seem appealing at first, eating them regularly provides more benefits than you can imagine. Beets contain folate, manganese, fiber, and nitrates (which the body converts into nitric oxide).
