Phytonutrients are biological substances that give fruits and vegetables their color, flavor, smell and disease resistance.
There are an estimated 40,000 phytonutrients available in colorful foods, and they can prevent cancer, heart disease, arthritis, infection, allergies and numerous other diseases.*
Look down at your plate today when you’re eating. It should look like a colorful painting. Try to make your plate more vibrant with fresh fruits and vegetables.
Express your love today!
