Nourishment Notes

Potatoes

The skin of a potato contains the highest amount of fiber, specifically insoluble fiber. Insoluble fiber helps to relieve constipation. Cooled potatoes also contain resistant starch that may help to feed gut-bacteria and promote a healthier digestive system.

Asparagus

Asparagus contains many nutrients, including folate. Folate is important in helping grow new and healthy cells.

White Beans

White beans contain a high amount of insoluble fiber. Insoluble fiber helps to draw water and add bulk, making it a great type of fiber for relieving constipation. Beans are also a good source of plant-based protein.

Fatigue Buster

  • Peas

    Use frozen peas instead of fresh to reduce prep time.

  • Lemon Juice
