Cantaloupe—a high volume food (high in water, fiber and air). 1 large cantaloupe = 277 calories. 1 cup = 427mg potassium and plenty of vitamin A and beta-carotene. Said to lower risk of high blood pressure and stroke, and is a powerful immune booster (for colds).
Cherries—loaded with anti-inflammatory, anti-aging and anti-cancer properties. The anthocyanins in the cherries are said to reduce the risk of colon cancer, and cause a decrease in blood urates and the relief of gout pain.
Coconut—coconut and its oil is said to be one of the healthiest things you can ingest. ½ cup shredded coconut = 4g fiber, 142mg potassium, 13mg magnesium, <3g sugar, and 13g of GOOD fat. The saturated fats in coconuts are mainly medium chain, and are easier to metabolize and preferentially used for energy rather than stored in your gut.
Cranberries—1 cup = 44 calories, high fiber, and low sugar. Have anticancer properties, inhibit growth of foodborne pathogens, and contain antibacterial properties to aid in preventing UTIs. Also high in phenols, which are said to be highly protective against many health conditions.
For keeping the heart strong, building the immune system and maintaining good blood circulation, the one miracle food the world over is garlic.
I eat a clove of garlic a day and haven't gotten sick in years.
I honestly believe it is a natural cure for virtually anything, including some types of cancer.

Do you eat the garlic raw? Just put it in your mouth and chew it up and swallow?
