We’re all about adding more antioxidants to our diets however we can, whether it’s the heart-healthy epicatechin in red wine and tea or the all-around good-for-you power of pomegranate. Antioxidants can prevent or delay oxidative damage to your cells, and since many fruits and vegetables are packed with them, a balanced diet can do a world of good for your overall health.

There is nothing more cozy than a hot meal on a cold winter day. Living in the Northeast, I find joy in watching the snow fall while enjoying a bowl of oatmeal for breakfast or soup for lunch.

This is because they were created using genetic engineering, also known as genetic modification—an area of concern among many health-conscious consumers....
