FRUIT AND VEGETABLE INTAKE REDUCES INFLAMMATION AND MAY KEEP DEATH AT BAY LONGER
Eating right just may allow you to live longer! Pure Chiropractic knows many Concord, NC chiropractic patients who will love to read this! There is growing 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 consumed 7 servings or more a day) decreases 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 results of consuming more fruits and vegetables and a lower occurrence of osteoporosis, too. Pure Chiropractic sees many Concord, NC chiropractic patients with osteoporosis who want to do something to stop, treat and prevent it. In one report, the more fruits and vegetables consumed, the higher the BMD and lesser the osteoporosis risk in middle and older age folks. And for those who may not be lovers of vegetables, you’re fortunate! Fruit is more likely beneficial in this concern than vegetables. At least up your fruit consumption! (3)
HOW TO UP YOUR INTAKE OF FRUITS AND VEGGIES
If you are tentative about eating fruits and vegetables, try being kid-like. Take a chance, and let yourself play with your food because one article points out that sensory play is the forerunner to tasting fruits and vegetables you play with! (4) It works for preschool kids who attempted tasting their “play” fruits and veggies! Pure Chiropractic would love to hear your stories if you take a stab at this!
