It is well known and supported by many personal trainers that fitness, health and longetivity can be enhanced by eating much more vegetables. Or in simple terms, eating healthy means eating lots of vegetables! As a Houston Personal Trainer, I realize that many people may find it hard to live on a 24/7 vegetarian diet, however its not necessary to be a total vegetarian to reap the benefits toward health.

Try maintaining a minimum of four, totally-veggie meals a week (one serving of raw vegetables is a cup of food so you will feel fuller too) and fill up on whole grains, and fresh fruit to top it off.

I read the following post in "Testosterone nation" and am posting it here to highlight how a lot of people feel about vegetables..." It started out as a little experiment but now I see that vegetables really are useless." "Any vitamin that you can find in a vegetable, you can get in a multivitamin. I haven't eaten anything green in MONTHS. And I feel just fine. I take a Centrum everyday which has all the vitamins I need (and Fiber One heh). So not only do vegetables taste bad, but they have no use anyway. I mean really, what possible benefit do you need (emphasis on "need") from a vegetable that you can't get from supplements or normal food? Bet you can't think of one."  (Paul 2200, California)
And the Response to the post was equally as funny..(from 808 flight concepts)
"You must be one constipated son of a bi.... And when you do take a sh.., it's probably pitch black and solid like a brick. I have a friend that knew an employee at one of those colon cleansing establishments and this guy who only ate bread and meat for like 10 years came in to get his colon "cleansed." Needless to say, the tech who did that guys cleanse became a vegetarian and quit soon after. Just my two cents--eat your veggies."

As an experienced, Houston In Home Personal trainer, I have found it is sometimes difficult to eat a lot of veggies in a day (five servings a day is what I require) so getting a juicer or making smoothies will help make that easier to accomplish. My website designer recommends the Jack LaLanne Power juicer because it accommodates whole fruits and veggies.
