Fruit and Vegetable Intake Reduces Stroke
Risk
A study, reported in the Journal of the American Medical Association (October
1999), showed that fruits and vegetables are beneficial in combating stroke.
It was conducted at Harvard's School of Public Health where
investigators studied the relationship between fruit intake and the rate of stroke in over 75,000 women. The results clearly showed a decrease in stroke risk in those who had an increase in intake in the number of servings of fruits and vegetables per day.
