National Eating Healthy Day

Happy National Eating Healthy Day guys! That term "healthy" means many things to many people but the American Heart Association    Advices us to consume a colorful plate in order to get essential nutrition. This campaign is designed to show us how simply adding a cup of fruits and vegetables a day (2 servings) will help you live a longer, healthier life. Take this opportunity to makes small changes to your plate. For instance, if you tend to skip out on fruit, set a day this week to eat 1 serving of fruit. What's a serving? Glad you asked!
