Cucumber is a staggering 98% water and thus must have a very low nutritional content... because of this it is a good diet food.

Shortening is healthier. It's made from a vegetable base. Lard is the byproduct of animals and it tastes way better. You can't be beat a tortilla made with lard!

Every fruit and vegetable has unique properties that contribute to good health, smoker and non-smoker.\n\nThe golden rule is color: the more colors of fruits and vegetables you have, the better the balance of nutrients you are receiving.\n\nWhile I could give you the breakdown of vitamins and minerals for various vegetables and fruits, know this: there are a variety of undiscovered and recently discovered chemicals that contribute to good human health.\n\nBroccolli has received a lot of attention since the discovery of yet-named chemicals. These chemicals provide protection from carcinogens, and helps heal the damage already done by carnicogens. Since cigarette smoke is jam packed with cancer-causing chemicals, broccolli has been identified as a key food to consume.\n\nSpinach, cauliflower, uncooked carrots, peppers, onions and garlic all contribute to good health and good healing.\n\nThey must be fresh, served without corn/vegetable oils, no salad dressing, no butter. No deep frying or smothering your broccolli with cheese.\n\nAlso, you need whole unprocessed grains. These are key to repairing damage done by smoking. Steel cut oats, whole grain breads (not whole wheat breads), wild rice and basmati rice should be part of a post-smoking recovery diet.\n\nEat several servings of each every day. You will feel better and look better.\n\nCongratulations on successfully quitting smoking. Not an easy thing to do, so I think you will have an easy time enjoying all the fresh fruits and vegetables that await you.

I feel that it is better to eat fresh fruits and vegetables and nuts to lose weight. You get all the fresh nutrients of the whole fruits and vegetables. When fruits are dried you lose some Vitamin C. Dried fruits have a long shelf life though.\n\nThe second link below tell about the benefits of eating Prunes and losing weight.\n\nI wish you the best in finding a way to lose weight and to eat right.

Magnesium is very important to heart health. Lots of people are deficient in magnesium. Grape juice is good for the hdl, particularly the purple. The white is good too, but the purple is better.  However, note that a study suggests that too much purple grape juice interferes with iron assimulation. Results are not conclusive but alternating purple with white grape juice might be prudent if grape juice becomes a regular part of the diet.

Goji juice probably has the best scientific backing. Personally, I'd buy the berries myself though - a lot cheaper, more natural, and they have the seeds, unlike the juice. The seeds are high in essential fatty acids and other good stuff. \n\nBasically, all fruit juices are good for you, but goji is much higher in antioxidants than noni or xango, has many proven anti-cancer agents, is extremely high in vitamin content, and contains polysacherides, which enable your cells to communicate more effectively, and thus, provide anti-aging benefits. \n\nThe important thing to remember is that no nutritional supplement will make up for a poor diet, poor lifestyle and little exercise, however. So many people notice benefits from these products simply because they weren't eating right to begin with, and suddenly their bodies have a continuous supply of vitamins and other beneficial agents that they weren't getting before. In many cases, they simply could have eaten regular fruit and vegetables on a continuous basis and noticed the same beneficial effects.

5 words- THEY ARE GOOD FOR YOU.\n\nWhy? I can just look it up on the wikipedia anyway.\n\nImportance of vegetables in the diet\nVegetables are eaten in a variety of ways as part of main meals and as snacks. The nutrient content of different types varies considerably. With the exception of pulses, vegetables provide little protein and fat. Vegetables contain water soluble vitamins like vitamin B and vitamin C, fat soluble vitamins including vitamin A and vitamin D, and also contain carbohydrates and minerals.

if you are looking to eat health/loose weight i recommend..\napples, grapefruit  and bananas.  grapefruit is supposed to boost your metabolism while the others are good sources of vitamins without too much natural sugar.\nveggies.. dark green is good.  spinach leaves for salads, broccoli,asparagus, green beans (not canned).  no carrots or corn, too high in sugars.  things like tomatoes and bell peppers are good too.  yams are great, they are a super carb- great for abs!

Well they are called negative calorie food. Celery, cucumbers, pickles (watch the salt) bell peppers..These foods take more calories to digest than you take in. The trick is to combine those with other foods to have a healthy snack. Notice these are all high in fiber. Some people do the celery and peanut butter route, its a nutritious snack. Zero calorie drinks are also a way to help it along. I'm a huge fan of herbal tea, no calories no caffeine.
