Fruits and Vegetables<\/h2>\n<p>Unsurprisingly, fruits and vegetables top the list of nutrient-dense foods you need to maintain a healthy diet.<\/p>\n<p>In addition to essential vitamins and minerals, fruits and vegetables are packed with\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.nccih.nih.gov\/health\/antioxidants-in-depth\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">antioxidants<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Antioxidants help counteract unstable molecules called free radicals. These can cause damage to the body\u2019s cells through a process called oxidative stress.<\/p>\n<p>A fruit or vegetable\u2019s color is actually a sign of its antioxidant properties, says Quyen Vu, M.S., Culinary Nutrition Specialist at Beachbody.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cRed is an indicator of lycopene, which is found in tomatoes,\u201d she says. \u201cYellow or orange means beta carotene, found in carrots. And blue or purple signifies anthocyanins, which are found in blueberries.<\/p>\n<p>This is why it\u2019s important to \u201ceat the rainbow.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/bod-blog-assets.prod.cd.beachbodyondemand.com\/bod-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/5-Nutrient-Dense-Foods.grains.600.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-133986 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/bod-blog-assets.prod.cd.beachbodyondemand.com\/bod-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/5-Nutrient-Dense-Foods.grains.600.jpg\" alt=\"Woman eating oatmeal with fruit\" width=\"600\" height=\"400\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h2>2. Whole Grains<\/h2>\n<p>Oats, brown rice, whole wheat, and barley are all nutrient-dense foods that fall under the category of whole grains.<\/p>\n<p>According to Kleiner, you should aim to fill a quarter of your plate with these nutrient-dense foods, which are rich in B vitamins, antioxidants, and fiber (including prebiotics).<\/p>\n<p>Looking to drop a few pounds or just maintain a healthy weight? Don\u2019t skip whole grains.<\/p>\n<p>The fiber content of this nutrient-dense food group can help you\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/beachbodyondemand.com\/blog\/6-filling-foods-that-boost-weight-loss?referringrepid=1393\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">feel fuller for longer periods of time<\/a>, which could make it easier to resist\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.beachbodyondemand.com\/blog\/poor-diet-causes?referringrepid=1393\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">cravings and extra snacks<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/bod-blog-assets.prod.cd.beachbodyondemand.com\/bod-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/5-Nutrient-Dense-Foods.protein.600.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-133984 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/bod-blog-assets.prod.cd.beachbodyondemand.com\/bod-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/5-Nutrient-Dense-Foods.protein.600.jpg\" alt=\"Chicken with greens, tomatoes\" width=\"600\" height=\"400\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h2>3. Lean Meats and Seafood<\/h2>\n<p>Lean meat is a nutrient-dense food that offers protein without excess fat.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSkinless poultry is a lean protein and a complete protein, so it contains all the essential amino acids that we need in the diet,\u201d says Amanda A. Kostro Miller, R.D., L.D.N.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.beachbodyondemand.com\/blog\/just-the-essentials-an-insiders-guide-to-amino-acids?referringrepid=1393\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Essential amino acids<\/a>, which are crucial to muscle growth and repair, cannot be produced by the body and, therefore, must be provided through food.<\/p>\n<p>Fish and shellfish, also nutrient-dense foods that provide plenty of protein, contain \u201cB vitamins, selenium, calcium, vitamin D, and antioxidants,\u201d says Kleiner.<\/p>\n<p>Based on the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/health.gov\/our-work\/food-nutrition\/2015-2020-dietary-guidelines\/guidelines\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Dietary Guidelines for Americans<\/a>, she recommends eating 2-3 servings of seafood every week.<\/p>\n<h2>4. Low-Fat Dairy<\/h2>\n<p>Milk, yogurt, and cheese are considered nutrient-dense foods, but Miller recommends their low-fat varieties.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cLow-fat and non-fat milk contain protein without all the fat of 2% and whole milk,\u201d she says.<\/p>\n<p>Milk also contains calcium and phosphorus, Miller adds, which are essential to bone health.<\/p>\n<h2>5. Healthy Fats<\/h2>\n<p>\u201cNuts, healthy oil, and seeds are nutrient-dense foods, but they pack in substantial calories per serving,\u201d says Miller.<\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s because fat (even the healthy varieties) contains more calories per gram than protein and carbohydrates.<\/p>\n<p>However,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.beachbodyondemand.com\/blog\/healthy-high-fat-foods?referringrepid=1393\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">your body needs the fat<\/a>\u00a0in nutrient-dense foods for energy, brain health, and many critical functions, like vitamin absorption.<\/p>\n<p>The key is to enjoy these high-fat, nutrient-dense foods but remain mindful of portion control.<\/p>\n<div style=\"margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;\" class=\"sharethis-inline-share-buttons\" ><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u201cNutrient-dense foods are foods that are rich in nutrients in relation to the number of calories they contain,\u201d says Rima Kleiner, M.S., R.D., and blogger at Dish on Fish.
