1.Spinach.
It may be green and leafy, but spinach is no nutritional wallflower, because it increases blood flow to the nether regions, helping to protect you against age-related sexual issues. Spinach is also packed with lutein, a compound that fights macular degeneration (and may help your sex drive).
2. Tomatoes.
The red ones are the best because they’re packed with more of the antioxidant lycopene. Studies also show that a diet rich in lycopene can decrease your risk of bladder, lung, prostate, skin, and stomach cancers, as well as reduce the risk of coronary artery disease.
3. Carrots
Most red, yellow, or orange vegetables and fruits are spiked with carotenoids — fat-soluble compounds that are associated with a reduction in a wide range of cancers, as well as reduced risk and severity of inflammatory conditions such as asthma and rheumatoid arthritis.
4. Njahe (Kenyan black beans).
All beans are good for your heart, but none can boost your brain power like njahe. That’s because they’re full of anthocyanins, antioxidant compounds that have been shown to improve brain function.
5. Oats
They are packed with soluble fiber, which lowers the risk of heart disease. They are also loaded with carbs, oats also have 10 grams of protein and they deliver steady, muscle-friendly energy.
