✅ Sweet Potato – A powerhouse of fiber, vitamin A, and glutathione, an antioxidant that helps detox the gut and supports brain function. It also promotes good gut bacteria and strengthens the immune system.

✅ Zucchini – Hydrating and easy to digest, zucchini is packed with fiber and antioxidants that support gut health while reducing inflammation in the brain.

✅ Carrot – High in beta-carotene and prebiotic fiber, carrots help feed beneficial gut bacteria and support vision, brain function, and immune health.
