Do you honestly let your kids consume enough fruits and vegetables in a day? Let's at least talk about you, do you consciously ensure you get the recommended servings of fruits daily? Personally, we have enough vegetable servings at home. But fruits, not as much as we should, until quite recently.
To give you a background, I think I've mentioned this in my previous post before that my dad, who's 75 years old, has daily servings of vegetable and fruits. He cannot live without fruits in his diet and seeing how healthy he is now, made me realize more the effects of making fruits an integral part of one's diet. Since I was a child, I've learned to eat fruits and one of my favorites is pineapples, which is also my dad's favorite. So having said this, and consciously teaching by example, I've passed on the love of pineapples to my kids.
