Fruit!

Fruit is delicious! Fruit is least likely to be a problem with getting it in your diet because of how sweet they are. So why highlight fruit?

- Try a variety of fruits! Sticking to one kind of fruit can make you miss out on essential nutrients other fruits have.

- Make it a point to eat whole fruit over fruit juice. Juice can be very refreshing on a hot day, but by cutting out certain parts of the fruit you are again missing out on key nutrients. Not to mention the added sugars a lot of store bought juice has.

- Fruit is a good substitution for dessert! If you are finding yourself eating too many sweets, try substituting it with a bowl of fruit. You want to aim for sugar found naturally in foods like fruit and not processed foods.
