Gayle Guyardo, the host of the globally syndicated health and wellness show Bloom, keeps viewers informed each week with her popular "Bloom Boost" segment. This week, Guyardo delved into trending health news, focusing on ways Americans are seeking to improve their well-being through diet and nutrition.

From social media to medical journals, doctors and nutritionists are encouraging the inclusion of specific nutrient-packed foods to boost overall health. Here are the top dietary additions making headlines:

1. Berries Packed with antioxidants and vital nutrients, berries have long been celebrated for their disease-preventing properties. A new study highlights elderberry juice as a tool for weight management and improving metabolic health, offering even more reasons to add these tiny powerhouses to your daily diet.

2. Cruciferous Vegetables Broccoli, Brussels sprouts, and other cruciferous vegetables are nutritional goldmines. These greens contain sulfur compounds that play a role in balancing hormones, making them a must-have for hormonal health and overall wellness.

3. Fatty Fish Rich in omega-3 fatty acids, fatty fish like salmon and mackerel are renowned for their heart health benefits. These healthy fats support cardiovascular function and are an excellent addition to a balanced diet.

4. Mushrooms Mushrooms are not only versatile in the kitchen but also boast medicinal benefits. They’re a natural source of vitamin D and are gaining recognition for their role in supporting immune health and overall well-being.

5. Spices and Herbs More than just flavor enhancers, spices and herbs pack a healthful punch. From lowering blood sugar to reducing inflammation, ingredients like turmeric, cinnamon, and oregano prove that small changes can lead to big health benefits.

The Takeaway: Guyardo’s "Bloom Boost" encourages viewers to think of food as medicine and embrace nutrient-rich ingredients that promote long-term health. Whether it’s adding elderberry juice to your morning routine or experimenting with new spices, these simple dietary tweaks can pave the way to improved well-being.
