Healthy Diet

I just read another study that supports the adage to eat your fruits and vegetables. The study was with women with ovarian cancer and it demonstrated that women who ate diets higher in colorful fruits and vegetables had longer survival rates than those who did not.

This study was based on the women eating at least 5 servings of fruits and vegetables a day. Broccoli and yellow vegetables were linked with the longest survival rates.

So your mother was right to tell you to eat your fruits and vegetables. If it helps women with cancer, think what it could do for you if you don't have cancer! Eat those fruits and vegetables!!
