Glutathione, which occurs naturally in some foods, helps in keeping down weight, according to studies done at the University of Michigan. Now that I’m older and gain weight easier, I’m looking for healthy ideas…but not boring or tasteless ones! Here are some foods which are rich in glutathione and are definitely not boring or tasteless:
- Avocados (We love fresh made quacamole! So yummy! In fact, I think I’ll make some for supper tonight.)
- Grapefruit (A nice juicy grapefruit is overflowing with flavor! For a refreshing summer treat, serve sweetened fresh-squeezed grapefruit juice over ice.)
- Oranges (Peel and pull apart into sections – great snack food!)
- Tomatoes (Served fresh in a salad, fresh slices drizzled with olive oil & salt/pepper, salsa with added fresh chopped tomatoes & onion, or spaghetti sauce over a one cup serving of pasta)
- Potatoes (baked with low-fat toppings, Low-Fat Mashed Potatoes)
