It’s a pleasure to eat outdoors in the long, hot days of summer, whether you’re enjoying brunch in your backyard, picnicking in the park or catching up with friends at a barbecue.

Summer is the ideal time to savor juicy fruit, crunchy salads, succulent salmon and other healthy foods.

But, to eat more healthily, you don’t need to go all-out and radically change your diet during the summer months.

It’s easy to improve your diet — and your health — by adding just a few delicious, super-healthy foods each day.

1. Add Blueberries to Your Breakfast

Blueberries pack a powerful nutritional punch by:

· improving your concentration and memory because they contain very high levels of antioxidants

· enhancing your mood, regulating your hormones and increasing your energy levels, due to their high level of vitamin B6

· keeping blood sugar under control because of their low glycemic load and their relatively high fiber content, which also helps you feel fuller for longer

· improving your skin and boosting your immune system because of their high vitamin C content.
