Only 1 in 5 Americans eat the recommended fruit serving each day. Do you?
RISE: DO YOU TEND TO EAT THE SAME FRUITS EVERYDAY? IF SO, YOU MAY HAVE FRUIT FATIGUE. I’M RISE JILL MILLER. JUST FOUR FRUITS – ORANGES, BANANAS, APPLES AND WATERMELON – ACCOUNT FOR NEARLY HALF OF AMERICA’S FRUIT INTAKE. A VARIETY OF COLORFUL FRUITS IS VITAL TO A HEALTHY DIET, BUT ONLY ONE IN FIVE AMERICANS EAT THE RECOMMENDED ONE TO TWO CUPS EACH DAY.
REGISTERED DIETITIAN AND “MYPLATE FOR MOMS, HOW TO FEED YOURSELF AND YOUR FAMILY BETTER” AUTHOR ELIZABETH WARD:
WARD: THE TWO THOUSAND TEN DIETARY GUIDELINES FOR AMERICANS AND THE U-S-D-A MYPLATE ICON ENCOURAGE AMERICANS TO ‘MAKE HALF THEIR PLATE FRUITS AND VEGETABLES,’ TO DO THAT WE NEED TO THINK ABOUT FRUIT VARIETY, TASTE AND FORM. TART CHERRIES – ONE OF TODAY’S HOTTEST SUPER FRUITS – CAN BE AN EASY WAY TO ADD THOSE KEY ELEMENTS AND HELP BEAT AMERICA’S FRUIT FATIGUE.
RISE: TART CHERRIES’ UNIQUE SWEET-TARTE TASTE AND YEAR-ROUND AVAILABILITY AS DRIED, FROZEN AND JUICE MAKE THEM AN IDEAL PART OF ANY SNACK OR MEAL. AND THEIR POWERFUL ANTIOXIDANTS HAVE BEEN LINKED TO ANTI-INFLAMMATORY BENEFITS. VISIT CHOOSE CHERRIES DOT COM OR FACEBOOK DOT COM SLASH CHOOSE CHERRIES.
