Some Tips

Fiber, whole grains, legumes, fruits and vegetables are the most important types of foods to include in your diet each day and like everyone else you probably don't get enough because you eat processed foods on the go.


-Fiber is under-consumed and the best sources are whole grains, cooked dry beans and peas, vegetables, fruits and nuts.

-Most people eat too many grain foods but not enough whole grains.

-Fruits and vegetables can help you lower the risk for many chronic diseases but only if you eat enough and base your diet on them.

-A more vegetarian diet will help lower the incidence of cancer, BMI and blood pressure.
