Vegetables vs. Fruits: Which is Healthier for Lunch?
Questionwhich is healthier for lunch? a vegetable salad or a fruit salad?
AnswerBOTH fruits and vegetables are an extremely important part of a healthy diet. It shouldn't be one or the other but BOTH. Both carry different nutrients and have different health benefits. Add BOTH to your lunch or do a fruit salad one day and a vegetable salad the next. Add a variety too. Sticking to the same fruits and vegetables can get boring and doesn't add as much nutritional value as changing it up!
