Did you know that most adults aren’t eating enough fruits and vegetables each day? Yet they’re packed with the nutrients your body needs to perform at its best.


Here’s why making them a daily priority matters:


 Micronutrients: Fruits and vegetables are rich in vitamins and minerals that support everything from energy production to immune health.


 Fiber: Helps with digestion, keeps you fuller for longer, and supports a healthy gut.


 Antioxidants: Protect your cells from damage, reduce inflammation, and speed up recovery from workouts.


 Performance & Longevity: Consistent intake is linked to improved heart health, lower risk of chronic disease, and better overall vitality.


 Practical tip: Aim for at least 5 servings per day (that’s roughly 2 fruits + 3 veggies). Think:

 • Banana in your oatmeal

 • Side salad with lunch

 • Roasted veggies at dinner

 • Apple or carrots as snacks


Small habits create big change—and your body will thank you!


It's your turn to eat the rainbow (not skittles)
