Whole Food Supplementation...What's missing from your diet?

"Our ancestors consumed 30 to 65 percent of their daily calories (and up to 100 grams of fiber a day) from a wide variety of fresh fruits and vegetables. That's why, long before the discovery of vitamins, people who had access to healthy foods lived extremely long lives without vitamin deficiencies or major illnesses. Their protein needs were met by consuming pasture-fed animals, wild game, and fish that were rich in highly beneficial omega-3 fatty acids. These fats protected our ancestors against diseases such as cancer, diabetes, and heart disease - and they can do the same for us as well."

We must strive to consume at least 5 servings of fresh fruits and vegetables every day. Of course, if you keep track of what you eat/feed your family every day, you'll soon see that you generally fall short of this goal. My family chose to supplement our diet with Juice Plus+ A whole food based nutritional that I've talked about before. We like Juice Plus+ for many reasons, but mainly because it's just that...fresh fruits and vegetables in powdered form...no additives, preservatives or other "nasties" we don't want in our bodies. It does help fill in the gap between the amount of fruits and veggies we should eat and the amount we actually do eat.
