Eating healthy is easier said than done because there are a lot of products on the market that may be deceiving. Many food products may seem healthy, but are actually loaded with ingredients that are detrimental to your health. As part of a healthy diet, it\u2019s important to include fruits and vegetables to your plate. Eating healthy can have many beneficial effects on the mind and body.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.24.2″ _module_preset=”default” width=”100%” max_width=”2560px” global_colors_info=”{}” column_structure=”3_5,2_5″ theme_builder_area=”post_content”][et_pb_column type=”3_5″ _builder_version=”4.24.2″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.24.2″ _module_preset=”default” theme_builder_area=”post_content” hover_enabled=”0″ sticky_enabled=”0″]<\/p>\n Adding colorful fruits and vegetables to your plate is beneficial for your health and increases life longevity. Colorful vegetables that contain phytonutrients protects humans from chronic diseases, such as heart disease, and reduces the risk of cancer. A balance of colorful fruits and veggies are of equal importance, where one specific color of fruit or vegetable is not necessarily more beneficial over the other. It\u2019s also important to consume the skin of most fruits, such as apples or peaches, rather than peeling off the outer layers. When shopping for food, if you notice that your vegetables are mostly green, try adding in some colorful components to boost your intake of phytonutrients.<\/span><\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”2_5″ _builder_version=”4.24.2″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/sleep-wellness.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/2610087.png” _builder_version=”4.24.2″ _module_preset=”default” theme_builder_area=”post_content” title_text=”2610087″ hover_enabled=”0″ sticky_enabled=”0″][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.24.2″ _module_preset=”default” width=”100%” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.24.2″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.24.2″ _module_preset=”default” hover_enabled=”0″ global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content” sticky_enabled=”0″]<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.24.2″ _module_preset=”default” hover_enabled=”0″ global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content” width=”100%” sticky_enabled=”0″][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.24.2″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/sleep-wellness.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/2610089.png” title_text=”2610089″ align=”center” _builder_version=”4.24.2″ _module_preset=”default” hover_enabled=”0″ global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content” max_width=”60%” sticky_enabled=”0″][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.24.2″ _module_preset=”default” width=”100%” custom_margin=”|auto|-18px|auto||” custom_padding=”||0px|||” global_colors_info=”{}” column_structure=”3_5,2_5″ theme_builder_area=”post_content”][et_pb_column type=”3_5″ _builder_version=”4.24.2″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.24.2″ _module_preset=”default” hover_enabled=”0″ global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content” sticky_enabled=”0″]<\/p>\n Knowing what foods not to eat is just as important as knowing which foods to add on your plate.
