With all the choices people are given today about what foods and exercises are good for them, no carbs, no fat, vegetarian, low fat, without the proper guidance it can be a bit too much to handle. However, with the help and support of Washington, DC’s top personal fitness trainer, you can be on the right road to healthier eating and exercising. I take pride in being a top personal trainer in Washington, DC and I am dedicated to helping people like you achieve your health goals.

1. Grass Fed Beef: If the fact that this is 1st on the list surprises you due to the high fat content of beef then please remember that not all beef is created equal. More important than what you eat is what your food ate before it became your food. Grass fed beef is low in saturated fats yet packed with healthy omega-3fatty acids, fat burning CLA and protein, not to mention it tastes great.

2. Turkey Bacon: Crumbled in salads or as a side dish for a breakfast of egg white omelet, I think you will find, as I do, that this is one tasty dish. It is high in protein and extremely versatile making it one of my favorites.

3. Berries: Sweet and wonderful. Whether they are strawberries, blueberries, blackberries, raspberries, they are considered a number one super food. Packed with vitamins, anti oxidants and healthy phytochemicals. Funny thing is that they are relatively low in sugar, when they are ripe taste as sweet as the sweetest candy. A great suggestion is to stop eating that nutrient deficient cereal and toast for breakfast and try replacing it with a bowl of sweet berries for breakfast instead. They are so much better for you and will wake up your boring taste buds as well. Try it once and I can guarantee you’ll never look back.

4. Spinach: It is packed with beta-carotene to aid in the prevention of cataracts, Vitamin C to boost the immune system and leutin to help protect against macular degeneration. With all that going for it, I would say Popeye knew a good thing when he saw it! Try this for a day and see if you think your deprived have a spinach omelet for breakfast, spinach salad for lunch and grass-fed beef with a side of spinach for dinner. I think you will be quite satisfied.

5. Shrimp: Ready to serve in less than two minutes, it is a very lean protein. With shrimp, you will be offered vitamin D for your bones, vitamin b12 which gives energy, selenium for an antioxidant. At only 112 calories per 4 oz, serving shrimp is high in protein and low in fat. What isn’t perfect about that?

Being one of Washington, DC’s top personal trainers, I am confident that you will get a wealth of benefits from trying the top five super foods I have listed above. Not only will your taste buds thank you but also you will be doing a lot of good for your body and your health.
