My mother received an email not too long ago about the correct
way to eat fruits! I never would have thought twice about it if
she’d not have told me about the email, and although she deleted
it before she could send it to me (good job ma!), I did a little
looking online, and I’ve found several different sites that pull
together the basic concept of what my mom was trying to tell me
from the email. I’m not all great with this whole blogging
thing, so hang with me for a bit while I try to get the basic
points across! Fruits contain approximately 80% water, so if you
do not consume the daily recommended water for your body type,
eating fruits will increase your overall water intake. (I do not
recommend that you stop drinking water and use fruits as a
substitute, I am simply saying that on the days that you don’t
quite make your water goal for the day, the fruits you have
eaten will help make up for it!) Fruits have also been linked to
lowering cholesterol, therefore they can help prevent strokes
and heart disea
