  • Antioxidants, vitamins, and fiber

    Fruits and vegetables are the main sources of antioxidants, vitamins, and fiber your body needs to fulfill different processes and functions.

  • We don't eat enough fruits and veggies

    Most of the population in the United States does not eat the daily amount suggested by the World Health Organization (WHO) of fruits and vegetables (5 servings of 80 g each or at least 400 grams in total). According to 2015 data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), only 17% of Hispanics do so, thereby reducing the risk of diseases by doing this.

  • 20-30 grams of fiber

    People need between 20 and 30 grams of fiber daily from fruits and vegetables to stay healthy. However, in the United States, the average consumption does not exceed 15 grams, and for Hispanics, it is usually a lower number.

  • In every main meal, such as breakfast, snacks, lunch, and dinner, include at least140g (one cup) of fruits and vegetables, divided as you like.
  • You can continue eating as you usually do during the challenge. There are no restrictions for the rest of the foods you eat.
  • Choose the fruits and vegetables you will eat during the day. Weigh 5 portions, approximately 140 grams each (700 grams total), or measure five cups.
  • Follow the suggested tips for this challenge to choose your foods.
  • Try to add a variety of products. This will allow you to expand the range of nutrients and avoid getting bored of eating the same thing.
  • Despite not having food restrictions by prioritizing fruits and vegetables, you help increase your fiber intake. As a result, you will feel satiated quickly and for longer. This will make it easier for you to make healthier decisions and will even support weight loss.
