We have provided below the top five fun-to-grow fruits and vegetables that would make great candidates for your <em>antioxidant garden<\/em>.<\/p>\n<h2>5 Antioxidant-Rich Fruits and Vegetables to Grow in Your Urban Garden<\/h2>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p><strong>1. Blueberries<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-2653\" src=\"https:\/\/seewhatgrows.org\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/Grow-Your-Own-Antioxidants-Blueberries-1024x571.png\" alt=\"Grow-Your-Own-Antioxidants-Blueberries\" width=\"640\" height=\"357\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Blueberries top the list of practically every article naming antioxidant rich foods. This tiny berry holds more of the magic molecules than over three-dozen of the most common fruits in vegetables common to North America. They are especially rich in <strong>proanthocyanidins<\/strong>, which are\u00a0flavonoids with potent antioxidant capacity. Blueberries can be grown with confidence in moderate Canadian climates, with local blueberry farms thriving in places such as Richmond and Abbotsford in British Columbia. Blueberries can be eaten fresh out of the blueberry patch and make a fun and tasty addition to oatmeal, baked goods and smoothies.

Kale is touted as being one of the world&#8217;s superfoods and for good reason. This leafy-green vegetable is jam packed with\u00a0beta-carotene, lutein, zeaxanthin and\u00a0alpha-lipoic acid. Alpha-lipoic acid, which is both fat and water soluble (meaning that it works throughout the entire body), is an antioxidant of special interest. <a href=\"http:\/\/umm.edu\/health\/medical\/altmed\/supplement\/alphalipoic-acid\">A study shows<\/a> that alpha-lipoic acid\u00a0may help regenerate other antioxidants. Alpha-lipoic acid also occurs naturally in the body and\u00a0turns glucose into energy. Kale makes a great foundation for salads or as an addition to sandwiches (in lieu of traditional lettuce) and even smoothies.

To maximize access to antioxidants\u00a0peel-off as little of the skin as you can, fight back the tears,\u00a0and consume it raw.
