24. Broccoli
Just because you hated it in your childhood, you don’t have to repeat that in your adulthood. “In addition to being loaded with bone-building vitamin K and absorbable calcium, broccoli is an alkalizing food that’s been linked to greater bone density and reduced bone loss in postmenopausal women,” says Kotsopoulos.
“It’s also rich in nerve-calming magnesium, folate for pregnant women, and fiber that helps keep you full and aids in weight-loss.” Plus, broccoli contains indole-3-carbinols (I-3-C), which helps eliminate excess estrogen from the body that can cause belly fat, and that stubborn extra weight in hips and thighs.
