In the world that we live in, there are vast amounts of fruits and veggies.Picking the best ones is always a challenge.The answer is simple.I’ve come up with 3 easy to follow steps to ensure that the best fruit or vegetable has been picked.On another note, be sure that you get a variety. People always have their favorite two or three that they always eat.Your body will thank you 1000 times over. Eating raw fruits and vegetables are a core foundation for holistic weight loss and living a healthy lifestyle. When choosing your fruit or vegetable look for these three things:
1.Vine ripened50% of the vitamins and minerals go into the fruit or vegetable when it ripens on the vine or tree.Fruits and Vegetables are picked early when they are still green. They then get sprayed with chemicals so that they will ripen as they are shipped.
2. Organic:Research shows that organic fruits and vegetables have thirteen times more vitamins and minerals than conventional produce.In addition, organic produce isn’t sprayed with dangerous insecticides and herbicides. Studies actually show that these chemicals leach into the skin and flesh of conventional fruits and vegetables.
3. Local:Produce that is local to your region will have an amazing benefit on your body.This is because there are local bacteria, nutrients, and other micro-organisms that you need to have tolerance to.If you go to Mexico and wind up with “Montezuma’s revenge” then you understand what I’m talking about. Your body isn’t used to the local bacteria.
By understanding these three key points, you can get the most nutrition out of your produce which directly helps you in your anti-aging process and indirectly helps with your holistic weight loss efforts.
