The Power of Fruits

So I haven't updated in a day or so, because quite frankly, there is nothing new to update. I've been going strong with my meal plans, and I feel really good. 

The reason why I wanted to post an update was to share an article I read in Every Day Health . In Dr. Mike Moreno's 17 Day Diet, he asks that during the first cycle, you eat 2 servings of fruit per day. He is precise in what fruits he wants you to eat, and he gives brief reasons as to why these are the only fruits you can have during the first cycle (accelerate). He says that low-sugar fruits are good for weight loss because they are full of fiber, super low in calories and full of water. Apples, All types of Berries, Grapefruit, Oranges, Peaches, Pears, Plums, Red Grapes, and Prunes are the fruits in the list. In the article, Healthiest Power Fruits most of these fruits are mentioned, and they gave me more information as to why they are so amazing and what aspect of health in particular each fruit excels in. Some examples are apples, and how they help keep your bad cholesterol low and the good cholesterol high. They also talk about berries, and how they are fat blasters and so on. 

I hope you all enjoy the article, and keep eating the same old boring fruits, with amazing abilities to keep you healthy.
