One of the
easiest ways to improve your overall health is to add raw vegetables to your
daily diet.
Raw
vegetables are rich in nutrients and anti-oxidants. Try to consume them at
least three times a week on their own or combined with other foods.
After one
month, you will note that your energy levels have increased, your eyes will be
sparkling and your hair, skin, and nails will have improved.
