Let's Get Fresh with Healthy Gifts

Only a third of all American adults eat two or more servings of fruit every day. When I think of all my favorite fruits: mangos, lychee, strawberries, blueberries, persimmons, etc, etc, etc. I think it’s such a shame that more people don’t love the basic healthy goodness of fruit. Fruit is not only part of a wholesome diet, but it is nature’s candy. Fruit contains a small fraction of the calories of your typical candy bar, offers enzymes, vitamins, and minerals that are not contained in a candy bar, and is all together more nutritive while still able to satisfy that sugary sweet tooth. Fruit intake is also beneficial for weight loss. It supplies energy, water, decreases the risk of heart disease and some forms of cancer, and can slow down the aging process. Who wouldn’t want to eat more fruit after studying these facts? Next time you have a chance to send a gift, why not send a fruit basket? If you’re going to send someone sweet and sugary foods, why not give the gift of wellness as well?
