Title: Power of Fruits & Vegetables View count: 3290 Rating: 5.0 (7 ratings) Description: "It''s hard to argue with the health benefits of a diet rich in vegetables and fruits: Lower blood pressure; reduced risk of heart disease, stroke, and probably some cancers; lower risk of eye and digestive problems; and a mellowing effect on blood sugar that can help keep appetite in check. Most people should aim for at least nine servings (at least 4½ cups) of vegetables and fruits a day, and potatoes don''t count. Go for a variety of kinds and colors of produce, to give your body the mix of nutrients it needs. Best bets? Dark leafy greens, cooked tomatoes, and anything that''s a rich yellow" (Harvard School of Public Health) (from http://www.PeopleCinema.com) Tags: fruits, vegetables, health, Author: cindyfromhevan |
