Vegetables and Fruit To Diet


As we already know that fruits and vegetables are highly nutritious. But it required a specific tips for maximum nutrient content can still be obtained. Many of us thought had been eating fresh fruits and green vegetables in sufficient quantities every day. But if we look further, how many actually we have been eating, of course the story is different.
Because fresh fruits and green vegetables contain nutrients that are essential to health and reduce risk of cancer and heart disease. Both types of food were also low in fat and calories, it is also the most delicious healthy food.
So, try to consume at least five servings per day: two kinds of fresh fruit and three kinds of green vegetables. Often we rely on a number of basic foodstuffs purchased constantly. Due to a variety of vegetables and fruits that have a nutrient content varies, so by eating various types means you get greater benefit from each nutritional content.
Note the color
In order to ensure nutrient content, we also have to start from the attention to color. The darker the color, the greater nutritional content. Dark green vegetables (kale, spinach, broccoli) and vegetables and fruits, yellow-orange (sweet potatoes, carrots, mango) contains a sufficiently high nutrient levels. Try eating at least one serving per day for each of these types.
Add the vegetables, dark green to enrich the nutritional content of your salad dish When you buy a melon, choose a darker color. If you have to choose between white and red wine, choose red.
Select a fresh
The shorter the time elapsed since the harvested until it gets to the table, the greater the nutrients that you will get. If you can buy directly from farmers or market stalls where farmers sell their crops directly, or you can have a vegetable garden and fruit yourself, then you're in luck. Even if you are shopping at the supermarket, choose fruits and vegetables that look the freshest. Avoid the type that might be slightly faded or have passed its expiration date.
Types sold in plastic bags can be a good alternative choice reason, the plastic bag will help the freshness of fruit and minimize the possible loss of nutrients in the fruit. Vegetables and fruits are at peak nutritional content while still raw. By eating as fresh vegetables will ensure the integrity of the vitamins that are often easily damaged when cooked. Instead, your body also describe difficulties or ingestion of vegetables rich in fiber, such as carrots and broccoli, if it is only eaten as vegetables. Thus, the nutritional content will be more easily exploited or absorbed when vegetables are boiled first.
There are some nutrients in vegetables that are easily soluble in boiling water, and some are destroyed by heat from the fire that is too high. The longer the cooking, the more water you need and the more nutrients will be lost. Try it with a microwave that requires little water and cook a short time. This is the best way to retain nutrients in food. Melayukannya boil vegetables or with a little oil is also a good way to cook.

Vegetable Juice Diet or Raw Vegetables

 
Increase intake of vegetables may be listed in your diet resolutions. In order for the higher intake of vegetables, then eat your vegetable juice. There's nothing wrong with this choice. However, the benefits of eating raw vegetables can not be replaced with vegetable juice.

Mayo Clinic's nutrition expert, Katherine Zeratsky RD LD, say, low-sodium vegetable juice can increase the amount of intake of vegetables in your diet program. However, he added, you should only consume vegetable juice regularly and not be a daily routine, let alone replace the intake of raw vegetables that keep your body needs.

"The lack of intake of raw vegetables would cause the risk of constipation, high cholesterol, high blood pressure, and overweight," says Zeratsky.

Vegetable juices contain vitamins and minerals are high, but lower fiber content than raw vegetables because of the manufacturing process in the blender. Meanwhile, says Zeratsky, adults need at least 203 cups of vegetables every day. This amount will vary depending on each person of age, gender, and physical activity. You can get these vegetable requirements from various sources, can be either raw or cooked vegetables, fresh or chilled vegetables, canned vegetables and vegetable juices.
