Learn the importance of including bioactive foods in our diet for improved health. Bioactive foods tamp down inflammation which can help to decrease belly fat.
These conversational vodcasts are available to the Kitchen Pioneers who have joined my YouTube membership community—The Traditional Foods Kitchen Academy.
What Are Bioactive Foods?
Bioactive foods are real foods in their original whole state. These foods are rich in nutrients that can boost immune function and promote overall good health.
The good news is that bioactive foods are also common foods. You can easily obtain them from most local grocery stores, farmer’s markets, or even maybe your own kitchen garden!
I talk more about Bioactive Foods in today’s Kitchen Academy video.
A Sampling of Bioactive Foods
Here is a sampling of some of the bioactive foods you can choose from:
- Apples
- Blackberries
- Brocolli
- Brussel Sprouts
- Buckwheat

Learn more about bioactive foods with the research paper, “Role of Bioactive Compounds in Obesity: Metabolic Mechanism Focused on Inflammation“.
