And Minster Chiropractic Center gets that you know fruits and vegetables are healthy foods, that you knows vegetables and fruit should be main parts of your Minster healthy diets, and that you gets eating fruits and vegetables is healthier than eating fast food. But do we – Minster Chiropractic Center included! - eat fruits and vegetables like we should? Unlikely. But you are not alone! Life distracts our best plans! Minster Chiropractic Center is just sharing this kind research-based notice of the help eating fruits and vegetables presents to Minster chiropractic folks and their friends and family members!
FRUIT AND VEGETABLE INTAKE REDUCES INFLAMMATION AND MAY KEEP DEATH AT BAY LONGER
Eating right just may allow you to live longer! Minster Chiropractic Center sees many Minster chiropractic patients who’ll love to read this! There is increasing evidence that fruit and vegetable consumption influences all-cause mortality. In a study of over 6000 people over 6 years, eating more fruits and vegetables (especially in those who ate 7 servings or more a day) reduces all-cause mortality. (1) The variety of fruits and vegetables takes on an important role in reducing inflammation and lowering C-reactive protein (CRP) concentrations, too. (2)
FRUIT AND VEGETABLE INTAKE IMPROVES BMD
Lower bone mineral density (BMD) folks see more favorable outcomes of eating more fruits and vegetables and a lower occurrence of osteoporosis, too. Minster Chiropractic Center has in its Minster chiropractic practice many Minster chiropractic patients with osteoporosis who want to do what they can to halt, treat and prevent it. In one study, the more fruits and vegetables eaten, the higher the BMD and lower the osteoporosis risk in middle and older age folks. And for those who may not love vegetables, you’re lucky! Fruit is more likely helpful in this concern than vegetables. At least up your fruit intake! (3)
HOW TO UP YOUR INTAKE OF FRUITS AND VEGGIES
If you are undecided about eating fruits and vegetables, try being kid-like. Take a chance, and let yourself play with your food because one article states that sensory play is the forerunner to tasting fruits and vegetables you play with! (4) It is successful with preschool kids who attempted tasting their “play” fruits and veggies! Minster Chiropractic Center would love to hear your stories if you try this!
