Why eat vegetables?

Many of us know perfectly well that nowadays, thanks to fast food and some bad habits, most people do not eat enough vegetables. This is considered one of the causes of overweight and obesity. And many of us also wonder why we should eat vegetables. The answer is below: Vegetables are rich in vitamins and minerals that the body absorbs more easily than vitamins taken in pill form. Vegetables contain a lot of water, especially when consumed raw. This water helps to hydrate and, along with the fiber they contain, provides a feeling of fullness and helps us stay in shape or lose weight. Vegetables have fiber, which aids in better digestion and helps prevent constipation. They are low in calories, fat, and sodium. Foods rich in sugar and white flour rob us of energy, while vegetables provide us with energy. Vegetables help keep us healthy. Due to their high nutritional level and the presence of important phytonutrients, they help us remain healthy and strong. The antioxidants and other nutrients they contain prevent many diseases. People who eat a lot of vegetables suffer less from some types of cancer, such as colon cancer, and other diseases. It is important, based on what we have read, to eat vegetables. We should include them in our daily diet and teach our children so that they grow up healthily.
