Nutrition Tip Eating the rainbow is a fundamental healthy eating tip. Eating fruits and vegetables of different colors gives your body a wide range of valuable nutrients, like fiber, folate, potassium, and vitamins A and C. Next time you build your plate, make sure you include fruit and vegetables with different colors such as — red, orange, yellow, green, and blue.
FRUIT & VEGGIES COUNT Get Active! Children and adolescents should get at least 60 minutes of daily moderate aerobic physical activity, but what does that look like? Moderate physical activity makes you breathe harder and your heart beat faster. You should be able to talk, but not sing. Examples include; walking, jogging, playing on the playground, biking, dancing, and doing jumping jacks. Make sure you include one of these activities on your daily routine!
Make your meal count by adding fruit and vegetables. Fruits and vegetables provide great taste and nutrition, while adding variety to your diet. They are rich in vitamins, minerals, and nutrients that are an important part of a wellrounded, healthy diet. Experts recommend at least 5 servings of fruit and vegetables per day.

Here are some ideas to help you fit more fruits and vegetables into your day: • Take at least one of the two fresh vegetables served daily at IDEA Cafeterias • Enjoy a green leafy salad with fresh vegetable toppings • Add diced vegetables into entrees and side dishes such as egg white omelet and whole grain pasta • Sweeten up your morning smoothie with fruit or add spinach for an extra boost • Top off cereal with fresh fruit • Refrigerate cut up fruits and vegetables in small bags for easy snacks • Keep a bowl of whole fruit handy. Whole fruits such as bananas, apples, and pears are convenient when on-the-go • You can enjoy juice, but make sure it’s made from 100% fruit juice, and limit yourself to eight ounces per day to avoid too many added sugars • Challenge yourself to try a new veggie or fruit every week and keep trying. For some foods, it may take multiple times before you acquire a taste for it
