THE ISSUE:
Fruit and vegetable consumption across the U.S. continues to be a challenge for many Americans. According to surveys conducted by the CDC from 1996 to 2000, more than 75% of Americans failed to consume the minimum recommended five servings a day of fruit and vegetables. Since those studies were conducted, the USDA recommendations for daily intake of fruits and vegetables have been increased to eight to 10 servings per day. Every day, more nutrition experts are recommending individuals increase their daily dietary intake of fruits and vegetables, especially those having the brightest colors. The most intensely colored fruits and vegetables have been found to possess the highest levels of protective phytonutrients plus elevated levels of powerful antioxidants, yet few individuals manage to incorporate these foods into their diet.

In addition to the decline in fruit and vegetable consumption, Americans do not consume an adequate amount of fiber in their diet. The American Dietetic Association recommends consuming 25 to 30 grams of fiber per day, however the typical American diet only contains 12 to 17 grams per day. Low fiber intake is associated with constipation, weight gain and a host of other problems. Consequently, diets high in fiber have been shown to help maintain cholesterol, improve digestion and dramatically support healthy weight loss. Most Americans do not eat enough fruits, vegetables or whole grains to consume the recommended amount of fiber in the diet. In addition, the typical American diet includes foods that are heavily processed, reducing much of the already minimal fiber content.

THE SOLUTION: Fruit & Fiber Bar
The AdvoCare Fruit & Fiber Bar is an excellent solution to help you address your own issues with fruit and fiber consumption. Formulated for men and women of all ages, it provides antioxidant activity equivalent to two servings of fruits+ to help combat the effects of free radicals. This antioxidant activity is equivalent to 1,000 ORAC (Oxygen Radical Absorbance Capacity) units per serving, an innovative way to assess the relative antioxidant capacities of various foods and nutrients. Because the Fruit & Fiber Bar is so easy to carry, you can be sure to benefit from increased fruit consumption even when you can’t consume fresh fruits. Because it helps balance your diet and contains key antioxidants, you’ll receive nutritional support for healthy organ systems, cardiovascular health, preventative wellness and much more.

+One serving of Fruit & Fiber Bar is equivalent to the antioxidant activity of two servings of fruits. This antioxidant activity is equivalent to 1,000 ORAC units per serving as measured in the Oxygen Radical Absorbance Capacity assay developed by the U.S. Department of Agriculture as a way to assess the relative antioxidant capacities of various foods and nutrients.

The Fruit & Fiber Bar also contains five grams of fiber in each bar, providing a feeling of fullness while minimizing the absorption of fats and sugars. Fiber can also help with maintaining cholesterol levels that are already in the normal range directly by minimizing the absorption of lipids, and indirectly by helping you make better food choices. Proper fiber consumption has also been shown to play a role in diabetes management, slowing digestion and the absorption of glucose. Whether you’re looking for help in losing weight, or ways to live a healthier life, the fiber found in Fruit & Fiber Bar is key in meeting your needs.
