Eating a diet rich in fruits and vegetables can help reduce the risk of many leading causes of illness and death, such as cardiovascular disease, type 2 diabetes, some cancers and obesity. Despite these positive health benefits, few adults meet the recommendations. You can be the exception as you challenge yourself to reach your fruit and veggie goals!
To our off-site locations: Don’t forget our coaches want to help your teams eat more fruits and veggies too! Reach out to AnnMarie or David to set up a Zoom session if your team would like a Wellness Break.
