You know that you need to drink more water. But if you are like most people, you don't get your six to eight glasses of water per day. But did you know that fruit is 80% water? So if you add more fruit to your diet, you will be getting more water in your diet. There is no other food on the planet that contains this much water.

If you have digestive problems such as abdominal cramping, constipation or diarrhea, you can alleviate some of these symptoms by eating fruit. Fruits contain natural fiber that will help to regulate your bowel movements. It has also been proven that fruits are very effective in lowering your cholesterol levels. This can help to prevent heart disease and stroke.

Other studies are finding evidence that fruit helps to stimulate the memory. People who eat fruit on a regular basis are able to retain information and recall it faster than those who do not make fruit a part of their diet. Studies have also proven that people who eat fruit or drink fruit juices on a regular basis will decrease their risk of getting Alzheimer's disease by as much as 76%.

One great reason to eat fruit is that it is relatively inexpensive. Some people think that fresh fruit is too expensive and they cannot afford it. But think about the price you pay for the take out meals or that pack of potato chips. If you make it a habit to replace those unhealthy snacks with fruit, you will not notice a difference in your food bill. If fact, it may be less! The real benefit to replacing unhealthy snacks with fruits is the fact that you are becoming much healthier. There is no way to put a price on your health.

We must remember that fruit is the most natural food on the planet. There are not many other types of food that you can just pick from the tree or bush and pop into your mouth without having to cook it first. Your body craves these all natural foods. Fruit is food the way it is meant to be.

So if you think that fruit is not that important to your health, think again. It can provide your body with water, improve your memory and it can help prevent disease. There are so many benefits in something that is all natural and so easily obtainable. Do your body a favor and start eating more fruit. You will love the way you look and feel.

  • Quick Success Is No Success By: Derek Cla - Quick Success Is No Success When people come to me for advice on how to lose weight, they typically don't ask about what exercises they should do, they want to know how they can control their appetite. They are well aware that they are overweight because they eat too much, but they just can't stop...for a variety of reasons. The first thing I tell them is to not go on a diet. For a week, anyway. I have them start a journal in which they keep track of everything they eat and drink, every day. What time they consume it, how they feel before and afterward.

  • What do you know about teenagers and marijuana? By: Dr. Jennifer B. Baxt, DMFT, NCC, DCC - With all the televisions shows, movies and general stereotypes about teenagers, it’s easy for adults to believe that the majority of all teenagers use marijuana. Despite this common stereotype, few actually use it. In fact, one recent statistic has shown that only about one in every seven teenagers, on average, use marijuana.

There are many reasons for a teenager wanting to try and use the drug, the least of which include stresses at home, school and peer pressure.

  • What Causes ADHD Symptoms? By: Dr Kenny Handelman - The general idea out there is that ADD and ADHD are caused by social problems. Very often, people hear their family members or neighbors telling them that Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder is caused by: video games, TV, music videos, single parent families, parents who work too much, computers, inexperienced teachers, etc. While many people talk about ADHD being due to many problems in society, they are not only wrong, they are actually doing a real disservice to people with ADHD.
