Eating five fruits and vegetables a day supports your well-being.
Five-a-Day for Better Health
You’ve probably heard it before, “eat five servings of fruit and vegetables per day.” But why is that recommended? It turns out that eating an average of five fruits and vegetables per day is associated with big mental and physical health benefits.
Regularly eating fruits and vegetables can help improve mood, reduce stress, and decrease your risk of heart disease and cancer. This is thanks in part to the satisfying fiber and nourishing nutrients they provide, two important contributors to healthy systems.
Incorporating more produce in your diet doesn’t have to be difficult or flavorless either. Eat Fresh and Have a Plant both have lots of recipes to help you get your five-a-day. From refreshing Strawberry Basil Popsicles to cozy Tomato White Bean Soup, there are delicious ways to eat more fruits and veggies in every season!
