It’s in the news again: EAT MORE VEGETABLES!!!!
Actually, what it says is, “Eat 10 servings of fruits and vegetables a day to live longer.”
According to researchers at Imperial College London, eating up to 10 portions of fruit and veggies a day will reduce the chance of heart attack, stroke, cancer and early death.
I don’t do so well with restrictive eating goals. They can make me anxious and I can feel deprived. Positive ones don’t have the same negative effect. For example, for years, as a vegetarian, I’ve tracked protein.
I’m heading home from a conference to a very busy few weeks of work ahead. I’m starting to ride more and I need to make sure I get enough good things to eat. If I don’t manage to track anything else I think I’ll try to count servings of fruits and vegetables.
Wish me luck!
How many servings of fruits and vegetables do you eat each day?
