Wonderful Strength of Fruit and Vegetables
Consider what is very likely to be your current lifestyle and your current diet. Raise your hand if any of these points apply to you:
- You don’t manage your five fruits and vegetables a day
- You eat a lot of processed foods and ready meals
- You go to the gym 3 times a week or less – and aren’t particularly mobile the rest of the time
- You don’t get enough sleep
- You are in a state of chronic stress due to work, family, and financial pressures
- You spend a lot of your free time on the couch,watching cartoons
- You spend more than eight hours a day looking at a computer screen, with a hunched back, staring at a bright screen
- You spend barely any time outdoors • You drink contaminated tap water • You breathe harmful smog-filled air
