Fruits and vegetables are good for us. There’s no arguing
that fact. But if they are so good for us, why do we have problems eating
enough of them? It is suggested that we should eat at least nine servings (4 ½
cups) of fruits and vegetables each day. Check out these
suggestions from the Harvard School of Public Health for 5 Quick Tips on
including fruits and veggies into your daily diet.
Here’s a tip that I found worked for my 18-month old son. He hates eating vegetables, so my wife and I make a smoothie for him. In every smoothie we blend a banana with spinach (which contains more nutrients per calorie than any other food on the planet), and then we add other fruits for flavor. He loves it!
