Did you know that September is “National
Cholesterol Education Month,” “Prostate Cancer Awareness Month,” and “National
Childhood Obesity Awareness Month?”
It’s interesting that all three of these disease awareness holidays are grouped together with “Fruit and Veggies—More Matters Month” (yep, it’s that too). Why? Because eating plant-based foods like fruit and veggies can actually prevent and even reverse high cholesterol, cancer, and obesity, as well as other common ailments such as heart disease and diabetes.
