5 colors Everyday

It’s important to get a colorful variety of fruits and vegetables into your
diet every day! Eating 5 or more servings of colorful fruits and vegetables
a day is part of an important plan for healthier living. That’s because
deeply hued fruits and vegetables provide the wide range of vitamins,
minerals, and phytochemicals your body needs to maintain good health
and energy levels, protect against the effects of aging, and reduce the risk
of cancer and heart disease.

It’s all about color – blue/purple, green, white, yellow/orange, and red. So
when you're grocery shopping, planning your meals or dining out, think color.

The Produce for Better Health Foundation (PBH) is a non-profit 501 (c) (3)
consumer education foundation whose mission is to be the catalyst for
creating a healthier America through increased consumption of a variety of
fruits and vegetables. PBH is chair of the National 5 A Day Partnership,
consisting of government agencies, non-profit organizations, and industry
working in collaboration to expand 5 A Day efforts to increase
consumption of fruits and vegetables for improved public health. The
5 A Day for Better Health program is the nation’s largest public-private
nutrition education initiative with 5 A Day coordinators in each state,
territory, and the military.

In this connection let us mention that the United States Department of
Agriculture (USDA) also provides a useful website MyPyramid.gov where
you will be able to know the amount of each foodgroup you need daily.
