We all know that fruits and vegetables are extremely important for health, but the fact is 90% of Americans arenโt eating the minimum recommended amount of 5 servings daily.

Great question! It does not mean five servings of fruits AND five servings of vegetables daily โ Itโs 2 servings (2 cups) of fruit and 3 servings (3 cups) of vegetables daily for a TOTAL of five servings. And thatโs the MINIMUM recommended daily amount!

Vegetables and fruits are an important part of a healthy diet, and variety is as important as quantity. No single fruit or vegetable provides all of the nutrients you need to be healthy so you need to eat plenty every day.
A diet rich in vegetables and fruits can lower blood pressure, reduce the risk of heart disease and stroke, prevent some types of cancer, lower risk of eye and digestive problems, and have a positive effect upon blood sugar, which can help keep appetite in check. Eating non-starchy vegetables and fruits like apples, pears, and green leafy vegetables may even promote weight loss. Their low glycemic loads prevent blood sugar spikes that can increase hunger.
At least nine different families of fruits and vegetables exist, each with potentially hundreds of different plant compounds that are beneficial to health. Eat a variety of types and colors of produce in order to give your body the mix of nutrients it needs. This not only ensures a greater diversity of beneficial plant chemicals but also creates eye-appealing meals.

Place several ready-to-eat washed whole fruits in a bowl or store chopped colorful fruits in a glass bowl in the refrigerator to tempt a sweet tooth.

Variety and color are key to a healthy diet. On most days, try to get at least one serving from each of the following categories: dark green leafy vegetables; yellow or orange fruits and vegetables; red fruits and vegetables; legumes (beans) and peas; and citrus fruits.

Choose other vegetables that are packed with different nutrients and more slowly digested carbohydrates.

Try cooking new recipes that include more vegetables. Salads, soups, and stir-fries are just a few ideas for increasing the number of tasty vegetables in your meals.

Check out the picture for the quantity of fruits and vegetables you should be eating every single day. I can tell you that during the past six years Iโve committed myself to a healthy lifestyle but I still have a tough time eating 5 total servings some days. In fact, prior to my kidney failure in 2013, I doubt I ate ANY fruit in a typical day and maybe averaged one or two servings of vegetables most days.
The CDC reports that just 1 in 10 adults meet the federal fruit or vegetable recommendations, according to a study published in CDCโs Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report (MMWR).
โThis report highlights that very few Americans eat the recommended amount of fruits and vegetables every day, putting them at risk for chronic diseases like diabetes and heart disease,โ said Seung Hee Lee Kwan, Ph.D., of CDCโs Division of Nutrition, Physical Activity and Obesity, lead author of the study. โAs a result, weโre missing out on the essential vitamins, minerals, and fiber that fruits and vegetables provide.โ
Seven of the top 10 leading causes of death in the United States are from chronic diseases. As stated above, a diet rich in fruits and vegetables daily can help reduce the risk of many leading causes of illness and death, including heart disease, type 2 diabetes, some cancers, and obesity.

Itโs for this reason that the supplement industry is booming. We all know we need phytonutrients, vitamins, minerals, and fiber in our daily diet but the fact still remains that the vast majority of us simply arenโt willing to eat enough fruits and vegetables to achieve optimal health.
A multivitamin alone doesnโt do the job. Itโs also the polyphenols (antioxidants) that help our body win the battle against the free-radicals that cause disease and illness.
Supplements are designed to help fill the void for the 90% of us that donโt eat enough fruits, veggies, and protein every day. Greens powders, protein powders, and speciality supplements for things like improved skin, hair and nails, increased energy, improved joint pain, better digestion, stress and so on โ supplements can help boost your overall nutrition, particularly if youโre not getting enough of the phytonutrients from food alone.
There are a lot of supplement manufacturers with slick marketing but the most critical aspects of any supplement brand are the quality, purity, and quantity of the ingredients inside.
We at ๐ง๐ฟ๐๐๐ ๐ข๐ฟ๐ด๐ฎ๐ป๐ถ๐ only manufacturer supplements of the highest standards. We source only non-GMO ingredients and select organic options whenever possible.
Most importantly, we provide what I call the โGoldilocksโ dosage of each ingredient โ not too much, not too little โ our quantities are just right! Our extensive research ensures our products contain what science has determined to be a safe and effective dose for everyday use.
When it comes to supplements, itโs become popular to toss in more and more ingredients in an attempt to fool consumers. After all, more is better, right? The answer is NO!
When I was younger and uneducated about supplements, Iโd go to a pharmacy or GNC and see the endless array of products. Take Vitamin C for example โ it seemed logical to me that if 500 mg was good, 1000 mg is better and 10,000 mg? Well thatโs gotta be awesome!
THE TRUTH? Not only is that monstrous dosage of Vitamin C not beneficial, over time, it can actually be dangerous.
The same holds true when supplement brands throw 50, 60 or 70 ingredients into their supplements to create the โmore is betterโ illusion. These supplement brands have included such small amounts of each ingredient by spreading it out among so many ingredients that you arenโt actually getting the medicinal benefits of the herb, spice or extract inside the product.
Sure, youโre still getting healthy nutrients from these gimmicky supplements but the reality is youโd be far better off with a supplement containing far fewer carefully selected ingredients containing the proper scientifically studied dosage.
