Every Guy’s Diet Needs More…

The other day, one of my clients asked me why I eat so many fruits and vegetables, and why I tell him to do the same. After all, neither one of us is trying to lose fat.

I told him that eating well isn’t all about fat loss. For example, when researchers from the Department of Preventive Medicine at the University of Southern California studied the food records of over 193,000 men and women, they found that an increase in fruits and vegetables in the men’s diets, specifically, helped to reduce the incidence of colon cancer.

I don’t know any men who are eating too many fruits and vegetables, do you? Here’s how I increased my intake (and I encourage you to do the same)…

First, I started eating raw broccoli and peppers alongside my morning omelet. Second, I have fruit for my mid-morning and mid-afternoon snacks (blueberries, apples, bananas, and even watermelon). Third, I added spinach to my lunches by taking a can of Amy’s Organic Chili, heating it, and pouring it over the spinach leaves. And, finally, my dinner revolves around a piece of chicken or steak surrounded by asparagus, broccoli, and avocado.
