G-BOMBS stand for greens, beans, onions, mushrooms, berries, and seeds, emphasizing the importance of incorporating these superfoods into your daily diet. Greens include both lettuce and above-ground green vegetables, while beans offer essential nutrients and satiating fiber. Onions, including scallions, provide beneficial organosulfide compounds, and mushrooms, primarily cooked, offer unique health benefits.
