FRUIT DIET Confirms 'Fruits and Veggies - More Matters' as Nature's

Best Remedy for America's Growing Obesity and Health Concerns

SAN DIEGO, March 28 /PRNewswire/ -- The FRUIT DIET is more than just

a weight-loss plan. According to author and clinical nutritionist, Jay

Robb; " more fruits and vegetables in the diet are just what Americans

need. " The Produce for Better Health Foundation would seem to agree,

with the launch of the " Fruits and Veggies - More Matters, " campaign on

March 19, 2007 to help Americans overcome barriers to eating fruits and

vegetables. According to the Foundation, more than 50 percent of adult

consumers know they need to eat five or more servings of fruits and

vegetables per day, but more than 90 percent do not eat the recommended

amount.

 

Most nutritionists will agree that humans should eat judicious amounts

of fresh fruits and vegetables to maintain optimum health and prevent

all major diseases. Unfortunately, since most Americans fall way short

of eating the government's suggested minimum it is easy to see why over

2/3 of all Americans are overweight.

 

If five daily servings of fresh fruits and vegetables are suggested for

good health, what would happen if you accelerated that number to 20 or

more daily servings? Jay Robb says, " It could radically change your

life by turning back the hands of time, softening your skin, lowering

your body fat levels, lowering your blood pressure, firming your

muscles, lowering cholesterol levels, improving your eyesight, while

eliminating joint pain, indigestion, backaches, headaches, and

constipation. "

 

.... Humans are designed to eat volumes of fresh, raw fruits and

vegetables. The ultimate carbohydrate source for energy is fresh fruit.

Vegetables are good as a secondary food source, being especially

valuable for their vitamin and mineral content.
