What Our Children Are and [Aren’t] Eating

USDA has recently reported that:
Fewer than 15% of elementary-age students eat the recommended five or more servings of fruits & vegetables.

More than half of all elementary students eat NO FRUIT on any given day and 3 of 10 students eat less than one serving of vegetables daily.

25% of all vegetables consumed by elementary students comes in the form of French fries – a relatively poor vegetable option.

" Rob, my story is that I thought it was normal to have pain in my neck, crunchy knees, high blood pressure and high cholesterol. I started drinking Mona.Vie and first I noticed I was sleeping all night without waking up. Next I noticed my neck pain was gone, my heart was not beating as hard so I checked it and it was 15 points lower. Then the crunching in my knees started to go away, and now it 80% gone. I love the juice and I will drink it forever."
