1726 One Simple Change to Improve Your Health

Healthy living can increase your stress. Who needs stress
when you can make one simple change to improve your health. And it
doesn't include physical exercise.

Now that's more than enticing. Most of us don't want to get up
and move more, even though we need to.

But today is not about intentional movement. It's something you
do every day. So, therefore, it's not about changing anything.
It's about adding something with a twist.


I'm sure you're wondering what it is. So why wait. It's time to
taste the rainbow.


And no! It's not Skittles; those sweet little candies.


The rainbow is fruits and vegetables.; the one simple change
that can improve your health.


Fruits are fun and yummy to eat. They are so sweet. Adding in
fruits isn't that challenging to add to your diet. But you have
to be intentional.


Now vegetables are a different story. Don't get me wrong.
Vegetables are yummy too. But there are some you just don't
like for whatever reason.


And I don't know about you, but I grew up eating vegetables
with lunch and dinner.


Now the American Heart Association recommends eating eight or
more fruits and vegetables a day. That's about 4 1/2 cups a
day.


Woah! That's a lot to eat. How many do you think you eat every
day?


If you are ready to feel better in your skin, it's time to eat
the rainbow.
The K.I.S.S. ~ Eat the rainbow!

Fruits and vegetables are full of nutrients, vitamins, and
minerals. And until you start eating them, you don't know what
you are missing.


So if we're going to eat the rainbow, it's time to go to art
class and understand the power of the colors.


RED
Red fruits and vegetables are colored by a natural plant
pigment called lycopene. Lycopene is a powerful antioxidant
that can help reduce the risk of cancer and keep our heart
healthy.


PURPLE /BLUE
The plant pigment anthocyanin is what gives blue/purple fruits
and vegetables their distinctive color. Anthocyanin also has
antioxidant properties that protect cells from damage and can
help reduce the risk of cancer, stroke, and heart disease.


ORANGE/YELLOW
Carotenoids give this group their vibrant color. A well-known
carotenoid called Betacarotene is found in sweet potatoes,
pumpkins, and carrots. It is converted to vitamin A, which
helps maintain healthy mucous membranes and healthy eyes.
Another carotenoid called lutein is stored in the eye and has
been found to prevent cataracts and age-related macular
degeneration, which can lead to blindness.


GREEN
Green vegetables contain a range of phytochemicals including
carotenoids, indoles, and saponins, all of which have
anti-cancer properties. Leafy greens (i.e., spinach, broccoli,
etc.) are excellent sources of folate.


BROWN/WHITE
White fruits and vegetables contain a range of health-promoting
phytochemicals such as allicin (found in garlic) which is known
for its antiviral and antibacterial properties. Some members of
the white group, such as bananas and potatoes, are also a good
source of potassium.


This is a lot to take in. However, I don't want you to let too
much information stress you out or overthink eating healthy.


One simple change is to add in fruits and vegetables
where you don't normally eat them. I eat vegetables at
breakfast. And not spinach or kale in a smoothie. I cook up
fresh green beans, peppers, sometimes zucchini, and onions in
olive oil. Then, add them to my eggs and that's an incredible
breakfast.


Healthy living can be fun and convenient. You just have to make
a few simple changes. And this is a colorful one!

"Taste the rainbow!"
