Fruits and vegetables are more than just color on your plate. They provide fiber, vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants that support your health and wellness!

An easy goal to increase your fruit and vegetable intake is to try to include at least one fruit or vegetable at each meal or snack. Fresh, frozen, dried, and canned are all great options!

Did you know that our bodies have built-in signals to tell us when to eat and when to stop? Tune into your stomach (not your head).

Hunger cues might feel like stomach growling, low energy, trouble focusing. Fullness cues might feel like comfortable satisfaction or loss of interest in food.

The goal is to start eating when you notice early hunger and stop when you feel comfortably satisfied, not overly full. Slowing down and tuning into these signals can help you better understand what your body needs!
