5 Foods That Are Surprisingly Healthy

Eating healthily doesn't mean sacrificing flavor. Some foods often considered guilty pleasures can be surprisingly good for you. Here are five unexpectedly healthy options for your next snack. Pasta. Low in fat and salt, pasta keeps you satiated longer, reducing the likelihood of overeating. Popcorn. Often dismissed as junk food, popcorn is rich in fiber, supporting digestion and providing vitamin B, manganese and magnesium. Honey. A natural sweetener loaded with antioxidants, honey offers cell protection, anti-inflammatory benefits and contributes to a healthy gut. Chocolate. Dark chocolate contains flavonoids that may safeguard against cell damage, lower blood pressure, and improve heart and brain health. Alcohol. In moderation, alcohol can offer protection against heart disease, kidney stones, gallstones and type 2 diabetes. However, it's crucial to avoid excessive consumption for optimal well-being.
