RDs: Eat a rainbow of fruit for optimal nutrition, variety
(Pixabay)
To get the maximum nutritional benefit from fruit and to add variety and interest to your diet, aim to eat a wide range of colors and types, say registered dietitians, who offer 17 healthful options. While fruit does contain sugar, it also has healthful components that make it an important part of a balanced diet, and registered dietitian nutritionist Cordialis Msora Kasago says, "When you eat the fruit, you not only get the natural sweetness, but also vitamins, minerals, phytonutrients and fiber which also plays a role in regulating blood sugars and preventing disease."

The HR Leader
Meetings sometimes veer off course, and the problem usually boils down to four dysfunctional behaviors that can be reined in with proper planning. Several strategies -- such as clarifying the meeting's primary goal and inviting people who can help achieve that goal -- can keep meetings on track.

Fruits are among my favorite foods but the health and fitness industry often demonizes them for their sugar content. I find that maddening. Putting apples and Oreos in the same category is just wrong.
 
So I was glad to see today’s Health & Wellness story that addressed the question about fruit in sugar and listed 17 fruits that are delicious and good for us. Several of my favorites made the list, including blueberries, lemons, avocados and mangoes. I top my salads with blueberries and add them to smoothies. I garnish my morning eggs with avocado (and Tabasco). I drink lemon-flavored water throughout the day. And when they’re in season, mangoes sprinkled with li-hing mui powder are my go-to afternoon snack (just a light dusting of li-hing mui -- it’s very salty).
 
How do you take your fruit? I’d love some ideas. Let me know! And if you enjoy this brief, tell others so they can benefit also.
