Fruits & Vegetables Love 🍅 🥦 🥕

Fruits and vegetables are great, I honestly love them all!

The reasons why

The reasons why you should eat them on a daily basis are endless, but I'll tell you my favorites.

They are so coulourful and vibrant, they bring joy to your meal or snack.
They are also crispy and full of water, which brings a sensation of freshness super appreciated especially during summer.
Of course, they are full of nutrients and really good in prevention of a bunch of diseases including cardiovascular diseases, hypertension and certain types of cancer. They can also prevent constipation and obesity.

Visit your local farmers market

To get the best of them, I like to buy seasonal fruits and vegetables at the farmers market. That way, I get to eat fresh and delicious fruits and vegies but also to limit their travelled distance and therefore the emission of CO2. At the same time, it supports local farmers and economy. It's a win-win-win situation! 🙌

You can use the images below as a guide to know which fruits and vegetables are in season during Spring, Summer, Autumn and Winter.

If you don't have access to a farmers market, you can also buy fruits and vegetables at any other facility, either fresh, frozen or canned. Fruits and vegetables in any form is better than none!
