This cheap food decision is one of the most healthy for your body. Fruits have many daily needed nutrients to make your body feel great. Fruits also have several different flavours, that make them amazing on any plate. In this article, I would like to show you how to eat more fruits, what a fruit is and what is the purpose of being a fruit. Shall we begin on this fruity journey together?
What is a Fruit?
A fruit, at its most basic, describes the ripe or mature ovary of a flowering plant or seed-bearing plant, and is usually accompanied by its seeds. There are countless identifiable fruits, ranging in size, colour and shape, making fruit arguably the most diverse food group. Bananas, oranges, apples and berries are all common examples of fruits, but the fruit family extends to less conventional items such as durian, lychee and dragon fruit.
Understanding the Purpose of a Fruit
They evolved towards making seeds and, whenever possible, dispersing them. This is the fruit function we can (barely) live without, but there are many fruitful meanings beyond biology that we need. What use are fruit to us? They are hugely important nutrient powerhouses, providing us with vitamins and minerals and fibre – that which is usually cited is what we often mean. What use are fruit to us? They are yummy food!
The Benefits of Fruits and Veggies
Fruit and vegetables, as some people like to call them, have their own friendly alter-ego: yes we’re hanging out in the same universe. Fruit and veggies actually provide us with antioxidants, which are powerful characters that keep free radicals from causing all sorts of symptoms including cancer and heart disease. Fruit and veggies are, also really low in calories and high in fibre, which makes these two (yes, I just called them that too) a prime candidate for dieters.
How to Eat More Fruit
So you see, the real question is not how to make yourself eat more fruit, but rather how to make yourself eat less. Here are some suggestions for how to eat more fruit.
Start Your Day with Fruit
Have some fruit to start your day. Mix them in cereal and yogurts, or blend them in a smoothie.
Pack Them in Your Lunch
Time to learn some hobbies. Fruit is the perfect afternoon snack. Pack an apple, a banana or a punnet of berries for a lunchtime treat.
Include Them in Your Dinner
You can introduce fruits into your meals, including main course ones, like adding pineapple to your pizza or cooking your chicken with a bit of apricot jam.
Opt for Fruit Desserts
Eat a fruit salad rather than a cake as your dessert or a bowl of mixed berries.
Drink Your Fruits
Though there is no replacement for whole fruits, as they provide nourishment from the entire plant and much more (see the piece above), freshly squeezed fruit juice is a good way to boost fruit intake – that is, if you don’t overdo it, as fruit juices are very sugary.

The Wholefruit Concept
The four categories of fruit you need to know about are the whole fruit (or whilefruit, if being cheeky!), which means eating the whole fruit: skin and seeds intact (when they are edible and safe to consume).
Does Orange Juice Make You Higher?
The myth that orange juice boosts the high wasn’t scientific, either. There was no basis for the claim that OJ increased or intensified the effects of any substance on the body, or increased the ‘high’ or brought out your inhibitions, as this myth suggested. Orange juice might make you feel a sugar rush, but that was about it.
Conclusion
Incorporating more fruit in one's diet can boost the sweetness of the meal, as well as ensuring you benefit from the range of nutrients that each individual fruit offers. This means make sure you vary the fruits that make it into your diet. Enjoy!
In short, whether the apple derives from the family of fruit or some exotic w fruit from the lengthy list of w vegetables, more fruits in one’s diet will bring health and taste, always available.
