4 Fruits That Can Change Your Diet for the Better

By Genevieve Cunningham

Eating healthy sometimes feels like a drag. You might imagine that a healthy diet is all lettuce and carrots and other rabbit food. But the truth is that a healthy diet can be quite tasty -- as long as you know what to eat! And if you're looking for healthy food that also tastes good, why not turn to the tried and true option: fruit! If you would like to add a little fruit to your regular diet, take a look at these healthy and tasty options to try today.

Berries

Berries are some of the most powerful fruit out there. They're full of antioxidants, which means they help to protect your body at the cellular level. They're also full of water and fiber, two crucial components of a healthy diet. And of course, berries -- whether it's strawberries, blueberries, or raspberries -- are absolutely delicious and full of tempting flavor. Eat to your heart's content. 

Pears

Pears are a fruit that often get forgotten. But pears are full of Vitamins C, B, and K, potassium, iron, and folate. It has a sweet and juicy flavor, and appeals to most people's taste buds. Pears are excellent raw, sliced, or cooked into a pie or cobbler. Add a few of these fruit per month, and enjoy the slight change in your normal diet. 

Apples

An apple a day keeps the doctor away. But why? Apples are full of both water and fiber. These help to keep digestion moving. And since the majority of the immune system lies within the gut, keeping digestion moving helps to eliminate potential sickness. And as a bonus, the water and gritty texture also helps keep the teeth clean between meals. 

Citrus

Citrus fruits include oranges, kiwi, grapefruit, lemons, and many others. So what's so great about citrus? While most citrus fruit is delicious, it also contains a massive blast of Vitamin C. This all-important vitamin is crucial for boosting the immune system -- which is your body's natural defense against germs. If you want to stay healthier, just add some citrus to your daily fruit lineup.

Some people will advise you to stay away from fruit, and if you're serious about sugar consumption, then this might be a good idea. But for the vast majority of people, fruit is an excellent, healthy addition to your diet. Add these to your menu, and enjoy the health boost and delicious flavor.
