Do this instead of: Eating whatever
I post a nutrition-related challenge on Thursdays. Since Fall is here and you can't wave a shopping list without hitting a pumpkin, it seemed like a great time to focus on this vegetable. Did you know pumpkins are considered a superfood? They contain a lot of nutrients, including Vitamins A, E, and C, Beta Carotene, essential fatty acids, and fiber. Also, they contain B5 and L-tryptophan, both of which can help regulate moods and ease depression.
Bonus points if you choose not to consume today's pumpkin in the form of spiced latte from Starbucks (like I did last week to kick off Fall)!
The Results: I had some pumpkin pecan oatmeal at breakfast this morning! If there's a Trader Joe's near you, this is where I picked it up. Very yum!
