OH MY
If you eat a order of medium French Fries it will take you 113 minutes at 3 miles an hour or over 40 minutes of swimming just to burn the extra calories off.At Least 5 A Day
Did you eat your fruits and vegetables today? Mom has always known best when she has always told us to eat our vegetables. However, what’s the big deal with fruits and vegetables?Our bodies crave and need fruits and vegetables. We were made to consume them more than any other food. From eating the recommended amount of fresh fruits and vegetables our bodies can almost get all the vitamins and nutrition it needs from them. However, we tend to miss the mark on what we eat each day. We often think were doing just fine on 2-3 servings, or less a day. According to the USDA (Mypyramid.gov) they recommend at least 5 servings per day! Five servings each day will help fight off sickness, help prevent disease, and make us feel great. So with a little thought and effort we can help give our body what it so desperately needs and wants.10 tips to get at least 5 a day:
Add fruit to your breakfast in your cereal, oatmeal, or on your waffles.
Add a fruit to your favorite plain yogurt.
Snack on raw vegetables or fruits instead of chips or pretzels.
Drink 100% juice instead of coffee, tea, or soda
Going out to lunch? Order a salad with the dressing on the side and order green vegetables for your side instead of French fries.
Keep fruits and vegetables at home in plain sight- grapes, oranges, bananas, and apples on the table or counter. If you see them, you will eat them.
Try dried fruit instead of potato chips.
When cooking vegetables, cook extra and store them in serving size containers for easy access.
Add fruits and vegetables to your precooked and readymade meals.
Try berries and melons or make a fruit salad for a naturally sweet dessert instead of that piece of pie, cake, or cookies.
And a bonus of eating 5 besides they’re full of the vitamins and nutrients is your body will feel full longer and satisfied till your next meal.
Even with fruits and vegetables serving size is still important so check out the serving size chart below and remember- LIFE’S A SPORT and to play the game of life, you need to be healthy! So, like mom said… Eat those fruits and veggies and you’ll be ready to GET IN THE GAME.
