The National Cancer Institute has launched a new program for men, especially African-American men, to eat not just 5 servings of fruits and vegetables a day, but 9 servings every day. h tt p://5a da y .g o v/9a da y/ The campaign is to inform men of the importance of eating phytonutrient-rich fruits and vegetables every day, in order to fight disease and maintain health. According to the 9 a day website, most men eat only 1/3 of the recommended 9 servings daily, and only 4% of men eat 9 servings of fruits and vegetables every day. A quote from the website mimics what GNLD has been saying for years, that the power of phytonutrients, especially carotenoids, in foods is critical to achieving long-term good health. “One thing is clear: the different colors of fruits and vegetables— green, yellow-orange, red and blue- purple—all contain a unique array of disease -fighting phytochemicals that work together with vitamins and minerals to protect our health.” Of course, we know that we do not always eat 9 servings every day. And we know that the servings we do eat often have their nutritional value compromised due to preparation, storage, or a variety of other factors. What’s the best way to bridge the gap between what we should eat and what we really eat? High quality nutritional supplements. Bridge the nutritional gap with Carotenoid Complex™, Flavonoid Complex™ and Cruciferous Plus™, your “PhytoDefense®” for good health.
