Fruits And Vegetables Are Key to Weight Loss Success

Posted Aug 24 2010 1:53pm

When most people start a diet or just set out to lose weight, the initial thought is 'I have to stop eating so much'. In reality, the quantity of eating isn't so much the problem as is the quality of foods being consumed.  As a society, we aren't calorie-deficient that's for sure. What we are, however, is nutrient-deficient. This is the biggest reason we recommend Juice Plus+® as it contains nutrients from a variety of fruits and vegetables. Juice Plus +® is not the answer for being nutrient deficient, but instead eating plenty of ripe, raw fruits and vegetables is the solution. However, even the best of intentioned people struggles to get the minimum needed. Now since the majority of the US is on some sort of diet at any given time, it behooves us to intertwine these two messages that have the same solution and provide dual results. That is, eating more fruits and vegetables will not only provide the needed nutrients for better health, but also eating those foods in greater quantity will yield weight loss. How? Those foods are bulky but low in calories. Translation: you feel full but aren't getting the calories you're probably used to that provides the same satiation. So if you are wanting to lose weight, just think about taking steps to be healthier, and you'll be on your way to permanent weight loss and good health. Here's more from the CDC --

Comments: So the important thing to remember as you set out to go on a diet, is that you really don't need a diet but just a few adjustments in what you eat. Adding more fruits and vegetables in place of some of the higher calorie foods you're probably consuming, will not only give you a boost to your health, but also result in a net loss in the calories consumed, and that means a loss in your weight too!  So start picking up more fruits and vegetables and be sure to eat them in their natural state: ripe and raw, for best results.
