Fruits and vegetables

How important are fruit and vegetables?

Finally, even the government is on the fruits and vegetable ban wagon and its about time!


Recently, a new government study came out proving that we need more fruits and vegetables. The 5 a day campaign not only not working (only one in four Americans get that), it is really far from what we really need as far as proper intake. Their new campaign "Fruits and Veggies- More Matters" is finally addressing the serious issues in the American diet. This will hopefully be turning point to change our diets to one of the healthiest in the world. I hope that my articles also add to helping people get to a healthier diet.

As it is, my husband is what I call a "meat and cookies" kind of guy. I am working hard to sneak more veggies in his diet. Tonight, I am making a veggie pizza. I am not really going to tell him how veggie it is. I am hoping he will like it enough so that we can do it regularly. Then, I will think of more veggie favorites to sneak in!
