Sprinkle in Some Seeds

Adding one or two tablespoons of chia, flax, or hemp seeds into your daily diet is one of the easiest ways to amp up your antioxidant and fiber intake. They make great mix-ins for almost any morning meal, and you can also add them to baked goods to increase the fiber and nutrient content.

Your action plan: Sprinkle two tablespoons of your favorite seed on your oatmeal, Greek yogurt, or smoothie in the morning. If you choose flaxseeds, remember to eat them ground, otherwise they won’t be fully digested—and you won’t extract the nutrients.
