Sweet Potato

This spud is one of the most nutritious (and inexpensive) vegetables around. The Vitamin A in sweet potatoes keeps eyes healthy, and acts as an antioxidant in the body. Sweet potatoes are a favourite among babies because of their natural sweetness and bright colour, but they are often forgotten once we get older. 

Flaxseed

This nutty plant food is packed full of Omega-3 fatty acids which are needed for optimal brain development. Flaxseed is sold whole and ground, but research suggests that ground is absorbed by the body better. 

Tofu

Though not always a favourite when served whole in dishes, tofu is fantastic  when used to provide a creamy base in smoothies and desserts. Tofu is a great source of protein, B vitamins, calcium, and iron. These are nutrients that support proper growth and bone health.
