To be honest, no one eats the suggested 5-9 servings of fruits and vegetables per day. No matter how hard you might try to eat a balanced diet, it is always going to be hard to intake the recommended amount of certain nutrients.

Many people don’t pay enough attention to their feet when they think about their overall body health. However, it is very important to do so since we rely solely on our feet to get us from point A to point B, and for recreational activities as well. Wearing proper shoes is the first thing you need to consider to make sure your feet are protected – inside and out! A number of studies have shown that high-heel users will usually have shorter steps and flexed toes.
