10. Asparagus

Asparagus is a bit of a controversial food, but fans of this spear-like veggie benefit from its long list of healthy nutrients. Thanks to the amino acid asparagine, asparagus helps reduce water retention.

It also contains a prebiotic fiber, inulin, that nourishes the gut’s probiotics to keep everything running on track. Inulin increases regularity and can prevent both bloating and constipation.
