IN SIMPLEST TERMS, HEALTHY EATING IS ABOUT GETTING BACK TO DID YOU KNOW? Most of us don’t get enough nutrients from fruits and vegetables. The current recommendation for a healthy diet is to fill half your plate at each meal with fruits and vegetables. Do you get that much? Hardly anyone does, especially not our children. The best way to reduce your risk of disease is to eat a healthy diet. Almost every day, another research study or news story touts the importance of our dietary choices - especially the benefits of eating more fruits and vegetables. The message is clear: we need more fruits and vegetables and other whole foodbased nutrition in our diets every day. It's the one thing everyone agrees we can do to improve our health and reduce our risk of chronic diseases, such as heart disease, stroke, and cancer basics - by following the latest USDA guidelines, like those from USDA’s My Plate. Today, healthcare professionals know more than ever about how health and wellness are influenced by nutrients from fruits and vegetables. But healthy eating takes time, planning, and can cost a lot of money. With today's busy lifestyles – from busy moms to traveling executives to active seniors – it's easy to miss out on the nutrients we need from fruits and vegetables.
