Increase Your Intake of Fruits and Vegetables

A study by the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) and the National Cancer Institute revealed that most Americans are not consuming the daily recommended amounts of fruits and vegetables suggested by the USDA MyPyramid diet guideline.

The pyramid is based on age, gender, and activity level but generally recommends that Americans consume at least two servings of fruit and three servings of vegetables each day as part of a healthy diet. Because of the far reaching benefits that fruits and vegetables provide, most experts in the field of nutrition argue the USDA recommendations are still low. Walter C. Willett, M.D. author of the national bestseller Eat, Drink, and Be Healthy: The Harvard Medical School Guide to Healthy Eating, recommends fruits be eaten 2-3 times/day and vegetables eaten in abundance.

Do a simple Google search using “fruits and vegetables” and it quickly becomes clear why eating fruits and vegetables are so important. I did just this at my favorite health related website (NewsTarget.com) and here is a sampling of the headlines I found:

• Fruits and vegetables can help lower blood pressure



• Fruits and vegetables help protect vision



• Plant- based diet greatly reduces risk of cancer



• Darker fruits and vegetables found to fight colon cancer



• Availability of fruits and vegetables improves the eating behaviors of schoolchildren



• Blue, red, and purple fruits and veggies fight cancer



• Water rich food (read fruits and vegetables) allow people to eat more while losing weight

And the headlines went on and on, for 12 pages to be precise. If you were to read just one of these articles there would be no question as to why increasing your intake of fruits and vegetables is probably the single best thing you can do for your health.

So, we know we need to add more fruits and vegetables but how can you make this work for you? Easy, upgrade your diet by adding one more fruit or one more vegetable into your daily diet. Or, even easier, you can supercharge your upgrade by simply adding one ounce of NingXia Red® to your diet.

Why You Should Drink NingXia Red Juice

How often have you found yourself in the grocery or health food store and see all the different Goji drinks available. There are so many out there that its hard to know what is the best. Even more, its hard to understand why one drink would be better than another.

Here is a great article to help you understand why Young Living's NingXia Red is THE best goji berry drink out there! http://www.naturalnews.com/022639.html

Please take a moment to read the article as it is very informative and helps clear up some misconceptions about all the Goji berry drinks out there. The article speaks very strongly about the NingXia region of China and its superior wolfberry. This is the precise berry that Young Living uses in its NingXia Red Juice. In addition, it is important to note that Young Living uses the entire berry in their juice. This is an added bonus as it is like drinking the whole berry, skin, pulp and all. If you don't know, eating the whole of anything is better than just drinking the juice. Now, how many Goji juice makers can tout that the whole berry is in their juice - only Young Living as far as I know.

Here is a snippet of the article:

So next time a goji berry juice sample flies at you wherever you may be, just stop and ask 3 simple questions:

1) Is it Lycium Barbarum species?

2) Is it certified organic?

3) Is it from Ningxia province in China?


If the source scored "yes" to all 3 of these questions, you have the goji that is a true superfood.


Young Living has the best!!!! With Young Living's NingXia Red you CAN answer yes to all three of these questions! Get some of this great berry into your body and feel the difference it can bring to your health!
