ОглавлениеOther foods that you should make a beeline for when shopping are brightly coloured fruits and vegetables. The bright colour signifies a large number of antioxidants, which they will pass on to us (see here), and fresh vegetables and fruit are also rich in a variety of other vitamins and minerals, as well as being a very good source of fibre. We’ll talk about antioxidants a little later (see here); however, for now, you may want to know that they are, for one thing, the nutrients that can help slow down the degenerative effects of ageing. I can’t think of anyone who wouldn’t want some of those! Remember that fruit and vegetables will contain fewer antioxidants if they are not grown in a natural environment. You’ll be getting plenty of fresh and raw vegetables and fruit on the Viva Mayr Diet. What’s more important here, however, is when you eat them.
