Eat Your Veggies for a Longer Life!

Written by

You know the saying, "An apple a day keeps the doctor away"? Turns out eating one apple isn't enough. A new study suggests people who eat up to seven servings of fruit and

vegetables a day can cut their risk of death by 42% - and that vegetables may be more important than fruit to your overall health. During the study, researchers also found

that vegetables are king – and end up being more important than fruit to your overall health.

It seems diets rich in fruits and vegetables protect people against cancer, heart disease, and all other causes of death.

So, hit the farmer’s market – or plant a garden. Your life might depend on it. (CNN)
