Which is your favourite fruit? Mine is Mango. Everyone of us love to eat our favourite fruits. But with busyness we forget to have our meals on time, then how can we remember to eat fruits. On the contrary health conscious people eat fruits regularly. They know and admire the benefits which fruits provide. Today I will make you know more about fruits and their benefits. So that, all of us include fruits in our diet.

Fruits are rich source of vitamins and minerals and a healthy snack option. We all come across various post showing health benefits of fruits, we read it but never try to implement or you can say think it’s not so important. You must eat fruits that are available in your local market, wherever you stay in the world. Include seasonal fruits in your diet as they provide much more benefits.

I don’t think any fruit in the world, which is not beneficial for us to eat. The focus is on local and seasonal because they provide benefits according to the weather conditions of that particular region. Just close your eyes for a while and remember all the fruits which you have eaten in your childhood. Are they still available at your place? If yes, then don’t hasitate to buy those fruits and let your children also enjoy the benefits.

You can google the benefits of each fruit you eat. But what is the use of just knowing what is beneficial for you, if you don’t have a practical approach towards it. Now a days we all are talking about immunity. The advertisement we see on T.V are flooded with products which will boost our immunity. Have you seen a fruit seller advertising his fruits? The benefits are known to us from years. We grown up eating those fruits. The more we come close to nature and natural things the more happy and healthy we become.

Instant food is always injurious to health. Try to stay away from it, if possible. The purpose is to share all, that can help you stay healthy and when we are healthy we are automatically happy. Who wants to spend his hardcore money on illnesses, and bear medical expenses? I think, no one. Save that money of yours. How you can curtail medical expenditure? The answer is, by adopting a healthy lifestyle. ‘Prevention is better than cure’ .

The more colors on your plate, the more healthy you are. Have fruits as salad, have them as a snack when you feel hungry, make a smoothie, enjoy each fruit and its unique natural flavour. Happiness is best enjoyed when your body and soul is healthy. There are many players providing fruit juices in tetra packs. What we like about it is that, it has a shelf life more than fresh fruit juice, easily available at a store near us, saves our time. We just pour it in a glass and have it, thinking we are sipping a healthy drink but, when we see it’s ingredients we will know, to increase its shelf life many preservatives are being used which are not at all good for our health.

Most of you are already aware of what I am emphasising on. Good, that you don’t just rely on health insurance and think otherwise. To give a healthy life to your children, the first step is show them what is healthy lifestyle not by just preaching them but becoming an inspiration to them. They are 24×7 at home struggling with, which we all have not been through, yes, you are right, I am talking about the pandemic. The questions which my son ask me most of the time is ” Mumma, when you were a child, have you faced a situation like pandemic? Were there lockdowns, when you were a child?” These questions makes me think that children, around the world might also feeling the pressures, which my child is feeling.

Hope my blog be fruitful for my readers and the first thing they will do is go and buy local and seasonal fruit for themselves and their family.
