Do you find it hard to get your serving of fruit in everyday? Heck, do you even notice that you're not getting your fruit in everyday? 90% of Americans don’t meet their recommended daily fruit and vegetable requirements. So you're not alone. I know as busy moms, it can be very easy for us to fall off the boat and totally not think about what should be a necessary part of our diet. I know I'm guilty of that. I was so glad I got a chance to review the Fruit2Day fruit drinks. Talk about yummy and healthy!
Fruit2Day drinks are a mixture of all natural fruit juices, purees, and little chunks of fruit. They are 110-120 calories each and have no sugars added. One bottle gives you two servings of fruit. The USDA says that an ideal intake of fruit for an adult would be four servings a day. That would only be two Fruit2Days.
So how does Fruit2Day do it?
According to the USDA Dietary Guidelines, one serving of fruit is equal to one half cup.18 This measurement is based on fresh fruit cut in typical slices or chunks. Of course, by cutting the fruit into small bits like we do in Fruit2day, we can fit the equivalent of a full serving into a smaller space. That’s why even though a bottle of Fruit2day is only 6.75 fluid ounces, it still contains two complete servings of natural fruit goodness.
Neat huh?
I actually drink Fruit2Day as a snack. I love the little chunks of fruit because it fills me up. I love it because all you have to do is open and drink. By doing simply that, you're getting in the antioxidants, potassium, fiber and various vitamins such as A and C that your body needs! Seems like a no brainer to me! Lisa Drayer, M.A, RD says "It’s always a good idea to mix it up when you’re choosing produce – the body benefits from a diverse supply of nutrients, plus you’ll avoid boredom and be more inclined to sustain healthy habits." So there you go. Fruit2Day is a great way to get your fruit in without getting bored. Thus, leading to healthier habits! Seems like a good deal to me.
You can find Fruit2Day at your local grocery store in the refrigerated juice section.

I appreciate that you like them, but I just tried drinking the pineapple and banana version and it was - in a word - grotesque. I'd rather just eat an apple.
