Remember to eat your fruits and veggies. Your health depends on it. Really, eating five to nine servings (preferably closer to nine) of fruits and vegetables isn’t as difficult as it sounds. Especially when you understand what is actually considered a single serving. The Produce for Better Health Foundation provides easy-to-understand specifications for what constitutes a serving. Working vegetables into your meals and snacks is quite simple. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s Fruits and Veggies – More Matters health initiative lists a broad array of fruits and veggies to choose from along with hundreds of creative recipes to follow. Also remember that men and women are different, therefore requiring varied amounts to hit their daily values. Factoring in age and activity level is also important. Visit Fruits and Veggies – More Matters to calculate how many servings of fruits and veggies meet your personal daily requirements.
