It is even better if you go to a farmer’s market to choose your fruit. Here, the fruit tends to be more fresh and free of harmful chemicals and hormones that allow the fruit to grow at a quicker pace.  It is recommended that we eat at least 7-8 servings of fruit each day. Fruits are rich in vitamins and other minerals and nutrients necessary for our body’s wellbeing.  Each fruit is known for a certain quality for example, berries are known to be natural antioxidants and citrus fruit is known to stabilize blood sugar levels. Dried figs are great to snack on they have low calories and have a significant amount of fiber. Bananas are a fruit filled with potassium and can help lower blood pressure.
