15. Artichokes

Artichokes are a great source of fiber, which is essential for healthy digestion. They can help prevent constipation and promote regular bowel movements. Artichokes are particularly rich in inulin, a prebiotic fiber that feeds beneficial gut bacteria. They're also rich in vitamins and minerals, which can support overall health. Steamed artichokes are the classic preparation. For convenience, artichoke hearts in water work well in salads or grain bowls. Just avoid the oil-packed versions.
