It ’ s

Good for

You by Pat Pankey

Eat your vegetables ; they ’ re good for you .” Who hasn ’ t heard these words before ? Most often they were spoken by our mothers . Well , she might have been even more correct than she knew ! The foods we eat are full of nutrients but now , due to much research , we know a great deal more about those nutrients and what they do for us .
I subscribe to a weekly e-newsletter from the National Gardening Association . On January 14 , I read an article entitled “ Eat Well .” It caused me to investigate the power of plants in our diet . I have to share some of the information I learned .
