Health Magazine: Best Food Products

Health Magazine looked at more than 500 products -- from snacks to dinners -- to assemble their list of the top 25 foods. Many of the foods on the list are great for someone who is healthy and wants to stay that way. But there are some high carb foods -- and highly processed foods -- I would not recommend to those needing to lose a lot of bodyfat.


That said, here are a few selections from the top 25:
