Memorial Weekend F&V Challenge
It’s time to reveal the consumer of the largest variety of fruit and vegetables over the Memorial Day weekend, but before I do, a couple of comments.
If you would have typically eaten the vegetables and fruits anyway, good job. I know that readers who perceive themselves as eating enough servings were probably more likely to respond, but still, good job.
For those of you who went out of your way to add more vegetables and fruit, I hope you’ll continue to find a way to increase your typical intake.
For those of you who didn’t try, there is no question that eating more plant-based foods is healthier for you. Taking great supplements fills gaps, but it doesn’t replace eating food as well.
The winner for the largest variety of fruit and vegetable intake was J.B. with a whopping total of 28 different vegetables and fruits. There were a number of readers who hit 20, but 28 was tops. Great job! We’ll issue the challenge again for the 4th of July holiday weekend.
Insider Call Tomorrow
Omega-3 fatty acids have been in the news lately; recent research has shown an association with omega-3 intake and the development of atrial fibrillation. I’m going to look at this in detail to see if there’s anything there. I’m also going to answer Insider questions. For those of you who aren’t Insiders, you have until 8 p.m. Eastern to join and participate in the call at 9 p.m.
What are you prepared to do today?
