Eating fruit provides health benefits people who eat more fruits and vegetables as part of an overall healthy diet are likely to have a reduced risk of some chronic diseases. Fruits provide nutrients vital for health and maintenance of your body.

Kiwis are tiny but mighty! It is a good source of potassium, magnesium, Vitamin E & fibre. Its Vitamin C content is twice that of an orange.

An Apple a day keeps the doctor away? Although an apple has a low Vitamin C content, it has antioxidants & flavonoids which enhance the activity of Vitamin C thereby helping to lower the risks of colon cancer, heart attack & stroke.

Strawberries are protective fruits. They have the highest total antioxidant power among most fruits & protects the body from free radicals causing cancer.

Oranges are the sweetest medicine! Taking 2 ­ 4 oranges a day help keep colds away, lower cholesterol, prevent & dissolve kidney stones as well as lessen the risk of colon cancer.

Watermelon is the coolest thirst quencher! It’s composed of 92% water, it is also packed with a giant dose of glutathione which helps boost our immune system. They are also a key source of lycopene ­ the cancer fighting antioxidant. Other nutrients found in watermelon are vitamin C & potassium. Watermelon also has natural SPF properties that keep our skin healthy looking and protecting it from those darn UV rays!

Guava & Papaya are the clear winners for Vitamin C content! Guava is also rich in fibre which helps prevent constipation and related issues. Papaya is rich in carotene which is good for the eyes (in addition to flatulence and indigestion).

Tomatoes​ provide excellent nutrition as a preventative measure for prostate related problems.
