#Fruitsandvegetables

A new study has revealed that increasing fruit and vegetable intake can dramatically improve sleep quality—offering hope to millions suffering from insomnia in Thailand and around the world. According to recent findings by researchers from Columbia University and the University of Chicago, consuming a full day’s recommended serving of fruits and vegetables—about five cups—can improve sleep quality by as much as 16% in as little as one night, making this simple dietary shift a potentially powerful tool against sleep problems (Futurism).

Recent nutrition research continues to champion dietary fiber as a key pillar of healthy living, and new recommendations are highlighting specific foods that can make it easier—and more delicious—to meet daily fiber needs. A report published on Martha Stewart’s website, drawing on advice from registered dietitians, emphasizes that most adults fail to eat sufficient fiber, with far-reaching implications for digestive, metabolic, and heart health (Martha Stewart). For Thailand, where the average daily fiber intake remains well below recommended levels, this message carries particular urgency.
