Eat Green, Go Green
February 27, 2009
Green is the color of youth, vigor and energy. Nature has created plenty of green resources for us to take benefit of. Green vegetables are always good for healthy body and healthy mind. As foods are key to our existence, we must be very careful and choosy about the food we intake and its form.
Everyone wants to be in vibrant health and good spirit. The key to energized and disease-free body is green fruits and vegetables. Consumption of such foods will provide our body sufficient amount of vitamins and minerals and good amount of water content. These are all responsible for our better cellular activities, which in turn affects the metabolism in a good way and thus keep us healthy. Healthy people build healthy family and healthy society and in this way a healthy world can be formed.
Awareness must be there for the right choice of foods. These are more important in today’s life because of the pollution and increase of fast foods in our life. Along with avoiding harmful food habits and pollution causes, we must start taking green fruits and vegetables regularly to keep diseases away. Green vegetables fight with toxic substances in our body by providing sufficient antioxidants in digestible form.
As spinach is rich in iron and tomatoes help prevent prostate cancer, alfalfa, limes and kiwifruit are good sources of vitamin C; limes, grapes, apples, honeydew melon and pears are mouthwatering and maintain the vibrancy of health as well. Packed with antioxidants, green vegetables take control of the metabolic system of our body and protect us from many bacteria and virus attack.
Earlier, people used to intake good amount green vegetables and fruits as they were unaware about spicy foods and fast foods. As we deviated from nature’s own way and took control of us on our own, we started making mistakes and growing harmful habits. This resulted many untimely loss of lives, mental retardation and societal damage. Let the technology grow, but we should keep ourselves green by eating green. Otherwise, our loving earth will have no habitat to walk on it one day.
