Mushrooms

　　Get ready for this list: Mushrooms are low in calories, fat-free, cholesterol-free, gluten-free, with barely any sodium, and yet they carry a wealth of selenium, potassium, riboflavin（核黄素）, niacin and vitamin D. Mushrooms are also hearty and filling so they can help you control your weight without compromising taste. And they're a rich source of umami, the fifth basic taste after sweet, salty, bitter and sour. They can help simple dishes come alive.

　　Garlic

　　In my house, all I have to do is sauté garlic to draw hubby and the kids to my kitchen! Aside from tasting great, garlic has been touted as being able to help hair grow, cause acne to disappear and keep colds and flu at bay. Its antioxidant properties can help boost your immune system, and to get the most out of garlic's active chemical, allicin（蒜素）, cut a fresh clove up and expose it to the air for a little while before you cook with it.

　　Onions

　　Chef Julia Child said, "I cannot imagine a world without onions," and for good reason. The anti-inflammatory chemical in onions, called quercetin, can help ease discomfort from arthritis, and quercetin's beneficial properties have been associated with a lower risk of cancer, heart disease, diabetes and a stronger immune system.
