Why can't I find anyone on this site (maybe except for vegetarians/vegans) that actually eat their minimum requirements for vegetables. Does everyone only eat processed foods? I'm astonished that most people are not even getting 2 servings a day...... Opinions?

Eating VegetablesHey, Jenn, I eat my daily requirements for veggies and fruits and avoid processed foods. In addition to eating fresh foods, I also use a wellness program called ViSalus to assist me with obtaining optimum nutrition to achieve my health and fitness goals.

Glad to see that I'm not the only one! I know the visalus products. They are great. My father in law is a regional director and mother in law is on her way. Posted by FighterDiet_Jenn on Feb. 01, 2012 at 09:54AM |

Eat to LiveI really endores Dr. Joel Furhman's Eat to Live plan of eating. It focuses heavily on fruits and vegetables (he does recommend vegan but for omnivores simply suggests meat/fish a few times per week). Many people who are truly health conscious and who have cared enough to look into proper nutrition are familiar with The China Study and similar studies, whose conclusions directly recommend against any animal products - hence, the high number of vegetarians/vegans. Further, people who care enough about themselves to learn about nutrition are more likely to eat their vegetables and take care of themselves anyway.

Yes, china study. Often refered to by the non-fad diet writers. I've read his book too. Very good book. I was living vegan for a few years; however, due to Dr instruction, I eat local chicken and eggs. Fish too. Posted by FighterDiet_Jenn on Feb. 02, 2012 at 12:52PM |
