Lemons prevent kidney stones.
Kidney stones are waste products that crystallize and build up in the kidneys. Citric acid in lemon can prevent kidney stones by increasing urine volume and urine pH. This results in a less favorable environment for kidney stone formation.
If you already have kidney stones, drink half a cup (four ounces or 125 milliliters) of lemon juice every day. This provides you with enough citric acid to prevent further stone formation.
Artichoke hearts
Artichokes are rich in magnesium, which is known for generating energy. These unusually-shaped vegetables are the most antioxidant-rich foods on this list.
Additionally, artichokes are full of dietary fiber and minerals. These nutrients help improve heart and liver health.
Artichokes also contain chlorogenic acid. Some studies suggest that chlorogenic acid’s antioxidant and anti-inflammatory benefits can help lower the risks of certain cancers, heart disease, and Type 2 diabetes.
The antioxidant content of artichokes may vary depending on how you cook them. Boiling artichokes increases their antioxidant content by eight times, while steaming can increase it by about 15 times.
