Some people, especially children, do not like vegetables and fruits.
They want to give up this food, but they make a big mistake by neglecting the daily amount of fruits and vegetables.
In Eastern medicine, not eating grains and vegetables is completely unthinkable, because people treat diseases not with pills, but with herbs, vegetables and minerals.
A complete refusal or deficiency of vegetables and fruits for a long time (about six months or longer) can lead to irreversible consequences. So what will happen to the body if you do not eat enough vegetables and fruits.
Firstly, the immune system will weaken. Abrasions, wounds, burns will heal much longer due to the lack of fiber, cellulose and pectin - the main fighters against damage to the body surface.
Secondly, the likelihood of various diseases will increase: diabetes type 2, heart disease, cancer. Health problems can also include problems with vision (especially at dusk) and increased blood pressure.
Eating vegetables and fruits in general reduces the risk of heart disease by 30%. Vegetables, greens and onions protect the retina from premature aging and ultraviolet rays.
Without these products, the condition of the retina will become significantly worse, and the former eagle vision will no longer be restored.
Thirdly, depression and general fatigue are possible. Healthy foods with a high percentage of fiber increase emotional state, energy and a surge of strength. If you do not eat vegetables and fruits for a long time, fatigue can even turn into dehydration.
Fourthly, problems with the gastrointestinal tract. Imbalance of microflora in the colon, disturbance of intestinal peristalsis, which leads to delays in stool, bloating and diverticulosis - these problems are guaranteed for a person who does not eat enough fruits and vegetables.
Fifth, gaining excess weight. All vegetables and all fruits are low in calories, and at the same time nutritious.
If you eliminate them from your diet, the high-calorie foods you start eating will naturally lead to weight gain.
Vegetable salads and fruits are the main component of any healthy diet and the main rule for any person losing weight.
These are the consequences of a lack of vitamins, fiber, greens and antioxidants in them. Therefore, it is strongly recommended that any person eat vegetables in any form, 5 servings a day, each 30 grams.
Vegetables are best eaten together with the main meal, not before or after meals. Fruits are best eaten separately from meals, so to speak, as a snack between them.
You need to eat 2-3 servings a day, 40 grams each. It is better to eat fruits not fresh, but ground. In fresh form, they are poorly absorbed and can subsequently cause problems with the gastrointestinal tract.
