Extractions: THE NATURAL FOOD HUB'S DIRECTORIES For the last 2 million years or so we had no choice but to gather and hunt food. More recently, we supplemented gatherer hunting with growing food. Very recently, most of us have abandoned growing any food almost entirely, and the only option left is to buy food. This hub is about BUYING food and GROWING food. Call it 'natural food', call it 'paleofood', this site is about the kinds of food our body chemistry has adapted to over the last 500,000 years. How to grow it. Where to get it. BUY Natural food in the Urban Jungle When we were gather-hunters our daily lives were driven by the need to find food to feed the family. Today we have abandoned the baskets, digging sticks, snares and spears and have only to decide which foods in the markets to select, according to our beliefs about the nutritional value of food, how much time we have to prepare food, our knowledge and inclination about cooking, how much money we have, and what we and our family like to eat. In my opinion, the evolutionary appropriateness of the natural foods available in the urban jungle varies. (More on this in the directory for your country.)

Not so! At least not where fruits and vegetables are concerned. Study after study continues to show that eating at least five servings of fruits and vegetables daily is good for your health. Generous amounts of fruits and vegetables in the diet can help treat and/or lower your risk of contracting many diseases and disorders, including heart disease, stroke, diabetes, cancer, macular degeneration, and diverticulosis. Why? Fruits and vegetables contain fiber, but little or no sodium, fat, or calories. They are nutrient-dense foods. This means they provide a lot of vitamins and minerals for the small amount of calories they contain. Plant foods, such as fruits, vegetables, and grains, also contain phytochemicals, substances that have been found to help prevent many of the chronic diseases and disorders from which Arkansans suffer.

Helen has been a Registered Dietitian for over 20 years and a Certified Diabetes Educator for 10 years. A serving is generally defined as ½ cup or a "medium fresh" serving. Adequate intake of these foods is one of the most important steps you can take towards achieving a healthy diet and may reduce the risk of several types of cancer as well as obesity, heart disease, hypertension, and stroke. These foods provide their benefits by containing a wealth of vitamins, minerals, water (yes water!), and fiber, while being low in fat, saturated fat, calories and cholesterol-free. Despite the known health benefits, research indicates that 30 to 40 % of Americans have insufficient intake of fruits and vegetables. Common reasons include busy schedules that make grocery shopping, meal planning and meal preparation more difficult. In addition, many meals are consumed away from home - at work, eating out or on the run - when finding good choices can be a challenge. However, there are many good tips available for increasing both the quantity and variety of fruits and vegetables and improving the nutritional value of your daily diet.
