sign: FRUITS from Housel Fitness for our month health post

Today's sign compliments of Housel Fitness 1st of the month posts - a little late but here nonetheless! (If you've missed previous health posts from Housel Fun & Fitness - check this one out... psst click here)


I love the sign because Ms. Little Fingers loves her fruits. I think I'll add it to our signing list! Thanks Mark!


Sign: FRUIT

Let's see what Mark has to say about FRUIT


We have all heard about the importance of eating FRUITS and vegetables in staying healthy, but what do they do for us?  FRUITS and vegetables contain essential vitamins, minerals, and fiber that may help protect you from chronic diseases. Compared with people who consume a diet with only small amounts of FRUITS and vegetables, those who eat more generous amounts as part of a healthful diet are likely to have reduced risk of chronic diseases, including stroke and perhaps other cardiovascular diseases, and certain cancers.

Information gathered from the Department of Health and Human services and the Center for Disease Control and Prevention

So what about you and your family - do you make sure your family gets their FRUITS and vegetables in?
