Eating more fruit is an easy way to pack a healthy diet in antioxidants, fiber, and other nutrients without all the calories.

Eating fruit is also a great way to curb your sweet tooth in a healthy way. Here is a short list of some fruit super stars and ideas on how to get more of them in the diet.

Fact: Phytochemicals or phytonutrients are known to slow the aging process, and prevent many diseases. Phytochemicals and phytonutrients are chemical compounds that aid in the absorbtion of nutrients inside the body. Vitamins, antioxidants, and flavonoids are all types of phytochemicals.

What about Acai berries?

This fruit is recommended as a super food by many experts for good reason. Acai Berries are loaded with antioxidants, essential fatty acids that aid in the absorption of omega threes. Just beware, it is nearly impossible to find Acai berries fresh in the United States and Canada. So, food companies are adding these berries to everything and not necessarily doing it in a healthy way. Only drink the pure juice or better yet buy the unsweetened pulp.

Just adding a little extra fruit in the diet can make a huge difference. Eat fruit as snacks, a side dish and even dessert!
