The reason to even write an article about the issue of eating enough fruits and vegetables is because many people today simply are not.
For a lot of the American population the lettuce and tomato on their big mac is the extent of their vegetable consumption.
Their fruit comes from highly processed fruit drinks that actually have about 10 percent fruit juice by volume and are packed with high fructose corn syrup.
Most people today are not eating enough servings of whole fruits and vegetables in fact a lot of people are not even eating one serving much less the 4 to 13 servings a day that are currently recommended for good health.
If you are one of these people who does not like vegetables or doesn't take the time to make sure they eat enough then you are potentially a good candidate for eating vegetable supplements.
Whole food vegetable supplements are made up of vegetables that are compressed into tablet form, poured into capsules or in a powdered form.
They are called whole foods because they are the whole vegetable just as nature created it.
No isolated vitamins or minerals or added synthetic ingredients.
Hopefully the whole food vegetables supplements you may decide to eat are organic, meaning no herbicides, pesticides, irradiation, just a concentrated vegetable or blend of concentrated vegetables.
The idea is that you can get your daily fruits and vegetables and all the nutritional components without having to actually sit down and eat many servings a day of actual fruits and vegetables.
The need for whole food vegetable supplements is more relevant today than ever.
The out of control preventable health problems in the American culture that are directly tied to a lack of nutrition is clear evidence that people are ignoring their bodies need for fruits and vegetables.
Also a majority of the vegetables and fruits that are being consumed come from poor soil, mono crop farming practices, may be genetically modified and are grown with a host of chemicals and synthetic additives.
The diluted nutrition in conventionally grown fruits and vegetables is another big reason to add fruit and vegetable supplements to your daily diet to boost your nutritional intake.
I have always believed that variety is the spice of life and eating a wide variety of whole raw fruits and vegetables in many colors is an extremely important aspect of creating robust human health.
The differing colors of the fruits and vegetables reflects the different types of antioxidants and antioxidants are critical for fighting disease including cancer.
Vegetable supplements and fruit supplements can offer a way to get these different antioxidants.
Choose high quality organic whole food supplements, do your homework and educate yourself so you can chose wisely and get the most for your money.
