Vitamins

For years, researchers and studies have shown that most of the general population needs to eat more fruits and vegetables to get essential vitamins, and most people fail to get the recommended amounts of these essential foods each day. Fruits and vegetables supply your body with the necessary vitamins, minerals, and other nutrients that your body needs to function properly and defend itself against disease and aging.

One way that the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) suggest that you include different kinds of fruits and vegetables in your diet is to choose a variety of colors. When you choose a variety of different colored fruits and vegetables, you get a variety of nutrients, such as fiber, folate, potassium, and vitamins A and C. And when you choose a fruit or vegetable over another high calorie, low nutrient snack you are helping to maintain a healthy weight and providing your body with a good source of energy that can last for hours.

And remember, you don't always have to eat fresh fruit or vegetables to meet your nutritional needs. There are a variety of canned and dried fruits and vegetables available that can supply your body with the vitamins and minerals it needs. Just be careful when choosing canned fruits. Some canned fruits can contain high levels of sugar and may not be the best choice when trying to maintain your healthy diet. Still concerned about getting enough vitamins? You may also want to consider adding a vitamin supplement to your diet.
