6. Prunes
How old is your digestive system? If it has some decades, it needs a boost from time to time. Lauren Harris-Pincus, MS, RDN, a registered dietitian nutritionist in New York City, author of the cookbook called The Protein-Packed Breakfast Club, and founder of NutritionStarringYOU.com should be part of everyone’s diet, no matter the age.
From young to middle-aged adults, prunes are great for keeping your bones strong while improving your bowel movements due to their fiber content. Dried plums, in particular, are the best option for those who are dealing with constipation, plus, it’s all-natural!
You can add to that a wide range of minerals and vitamins such as magnesium, vitamin K, potassium, and polyphenols.
