It goes against everything we’ve been told. Eat your veggies to boost your immune system. They have tons of Vitamins, Minerals, and anti-oxidents. They help eliminate food cravings & control our appetite.
And they help fight against Fat.
Or DO THEY?
Recent data released by the USDA says otherwise. Over the past 50 years store bought fruits and veggies have been losing their luster, and they’re not as Nutrient Packed as we think.
Here’s the data from a few store bought veggies under the microscope
Tomatoes of Today contain
- 29% LESS iron
- 57% LESS Calcium
- 46% LESS Vitamin A
Carrots of Today contain
-40% LESS Iron
-33% LESS Calcium
Broccoli of Today contain
-27% LESS iron
-60% LESS Calcium
-52% LESS Vitamin A
Sweet Corn of Today contain
- 76% LESS Calcium
- 22% LESS Vitamin A
Due to farmers using hybrids to create a better looking crop to put on the shelves so that they SELL BETTER, our favorite fruits and veggies are being depleted of their precious vitamins and minerals.
Those are just 4 examples, but when I read this report I was totally appalled…
Not because the hybrid crops are yielding less nutrients, but because
NO ONE IS TELLING US ABOUT IT….
NOR are they giving us better options..
Here are 2 other options to get your veggies to ensure they are rich in vitamin & minerals:
1) Grow our own garden - Not exactly plausible for everyone. Plus it’s a
long pain-staking process, especially if you don’t have a green thumb
2) Seek out your local home-grown fruit and veggie market, and buy your
stuff there.
Growing a garden isn’t the best option for everyone, but local farmer’s markets have great produce as compared to its store bought counterpart.
Plus you’ll know it’s not devoid of the precious nutrients that help eliminate our food cravings & control our appetites…
