From experience, I can tell you all that this is true: vegetables make you feel better. But even I wouldn't take my word for it. Scientifically speaking, veggies balance out your digestive, excretory and skeletal systems, your blood pressure levels, as well as many more things. These juicy little munchers pack a powerful punch of vitamins and carotinoids, which your body needs. On top of all of this, veggies help your body maintain a healthy weight and keeps your skin and hair healthy.
Veggies are the saving grace for all hard-core athletes. On top of every little scientific vitamin they procure for your body, they hydrate you above all else. The Fruitarian, as he is known on YouTube, is an ultrarunner who lives soley on fruits, and the occasional but plentiful vegitables — just take a look in his trunk!
I have eaten a mainly fruits and vegetable diet for the past year, and have lost thirty pounds. Honestly from the experience of a young adult, veggies are an amazing go-to meal, and they are best grilled!!!
Grilled Veggies
asparagus (salt n' peppered) peppers (cut in quarters or left whole)
eggplant (sliced very thinly and seasoned slightly)
zucchini (sliced)
sweet potato (sliced)
brussel sprouts (cut in half & salted)
Place veggies on grill and cook until grill marks appear. Do not overcook!!!!!! You will know this happens if you end up with a big charred mass. Keep an eye on it so it doesn't burn!
