New food products make life little easier
"5 to 9 made easy"

The Centers for Disease Control and prevention say eating 5 to 9 fruits and vegetables per day helps reduce the risk of cancer and other chronic illnesses. For life on the go, grabbing an orange or apple is easy enough, a salad for lunch, but that hardly tallies nine by the end of the day. Kagome offers a blend of vegetable and fruit juices that are simply delicious. Even children will love the Autumn Reds - tomatoes, apples, sweet bell peppers and red grapes; Purple Roots & Fruits - wild blueberries, beets black grapes and purple carrots; and Orange Carrot Blossom with a dash of lemon juice.

You'll know your kids are getting a drink rich in the antioxidants lycopene, anthocyanin or beta-carotene. They're made without added sugar or preservatives. Each 16.6 ounce bottle ($2.29) packs nearly three servings of fruits and vegetables. Kagome is sold at It's Only Natural in Main Street Market, Middletown. See www.kagome.us/ to learn more.
