Fruits and vegetables contain vitamins, minerals, and pytochemicals that act as “rust protectors” for the body. Vitamins A, C, E and beta carotene are known as antioxidants, that is, they protect and repair cells damaged by every day living. Phytochemical research shows these natural plant compounds provide a variety of health benefits such as reduced risk for cancer and heart attacks, and increased immunity to disease.
