The 2011 Functional Foods/Foods for Health Consumer Trending Survey conducted by the International Food Information Council (IFIC), Washington, D.C., reports that the majority (95%) of Americans believe they have some control over their health and that food and nutrition play the most important role in maintaining and improving their overall health. Additionally, an impressive 70% of the 1,000 adults who participated in the web-based survey this spring identified fruits and vegetables as having health benefits beyond basic nutrition. This should not be surprising, as fruits and veggies are packed with lots of good-for-you components including vitamins, minerals and fiber.
