Eating Vegetables
We all know that vegetables are good for us. However, not all of us eat enough vegetables everyday. According to the experts, five servings of fruits and vegetables a day are not enough anymore to maintain good nutrition and prevent disease. The new goal is nine servings of about half a cup each, split between four servings of about half fruit per day and five of vegetables or legumes, such as beans, peas and lentils.
