Amelia Chiropractic Clinic is just sharing this kind research-based notice of the advantage eating fruits and vegetables offers Fernandina Beach chiropractic folks and their friends and family members!

FRUIT AND VEGETABLE INTAKE REDUCES INFLAMMATION AND MAY KEEP DEATH AT BAY LONGER

Eating right just may keep you living longer! Amelia Chiropractic Clinic sees many Fernandina Beach chiropractic patients who’ll love to hear this! There is increasing evidence that fruit and vegetable consumption affects all-cause mortality. In a study of over 6000 people over 6 years, eating more fruits and vegetables (especially in those who had 7 servings or more a day) reduces all-cause mortality. (1) The variety of fruits and vegetables takes on an important role in lowering inflammation and lowering C-reactive protein (CRP) concentrations, too. (2)

FRUIT AND VEGETABLE INTAKE IMPROVES BMD

Lower bone mineral density (BMD) folks experiences more favorable results of eating more fruits and vegetables and a lower incidence of osteoporosis, too. Amelia Chiropractic Clinic sees many Fernandina Beach chiropractic patients with osteoporosis who want to do something to stop, treat and prevent it. In one study, the more fruits and vegetables eaten, the higher the BMD and lower the osteoporosis risk in middle and older age folks. And for those who may not love vegetables, you’re fortunate! Fruit is more likely valuable in this respect than vegetables. At least up your fruit intake! (3)

HOW TO UP YOUR INTAKE OF FRUITS AND VEGGIES

If you are hesitant in eating fruits and vegetables, try being a kid again. Take a chance, and allow yourself to play with your food as one article states that sensory play is the forerunner to tasting fruits and vegetables you play with! (4) It is successful with preschool kids who tried tasting their “play” fruits and veggies! Amelia Chiropractic Clinic would love to hear your stories if you take a stab at this!
