Eating fruits and vegetables provides many benefits. One benefit is calorie control.
Many fruits, vegetables, and legumes (peas, beans or lentils) are low in calories, high in volume, and are packed with vitamins, minerals, fiber, and other nutrients that can help you feel full without eating too many calories.
Fruits, vegetables, and legumes can help you get the most nutrition out of the daily number of calories you're supposed to eat.
Different vegetables are rich in different nutrients, so aim for a variety of vegetables throughout the week, including those that are dark green and leafy, orange, and starchy. Don't forget dry beans and peas.
