Fruits And Vegetables In Our Diet.

Most Americans are not eating enough fruits and vegetables. In fact the Center for Disease Control, CDC, has a new initiative to get the majority of Americans to eat 2 servings of fruits and 3 servings of vegetables a day by the year 2010. The question is, are these government objectives going to make a difference in reducing diseases like obesity, diabetes and heart disease?The best thing you can do for your health is to eliminate processed foods from your diet and choose to eat whole foods as close to the garden as possible. At the least make it your aim to eat raw fruits and vegetables with every meal. At best make it your aim to make raw fruits and vegetables your main meal, rather than the condiment of your meal.
By making these changes you will feel better, look better and do much to protect yourself from the deadly diseases that plague Americans who eat the Standard American or SAD diet.
