Do you consume fruits every day or replace it with vitamin C supplement?

I just read an article in readers' digest and it says that our perception of antioxidants (vitamins B, C, D, etc) is wrong and it usually doesn't help that much. But I believe that vitamin C supplement still helps in protecting the body because my mom has used it a lot and it helps. Fruits are still the best source for vitamins and minerals so I always make sure to eat at least one fruit a day. This is the still the best way to obtain vitamins and to make your healthy stronger. It's also more natural =)

My favorite fruit is apple. As the saying goes,"An apple a day keeps the doctor away." Apple is good for the skin,too.I eat apples every day.

our family try to have fruits on our table always, but thats really hard especially if everyone loves the fruit and it will only last for 2 days.... so sometimes we drink the supplement... i dont drink vitc too much coz it makes me more susceptible to colds....

hello femimi, i would like to go for natural things than synthetic ones.so i include fruits in my daily diet.infact i love consuming them than those nauseating pills.fruits have got better taste than pills i suppose.and moreover our nature has got all those nutrients and vitamins required for our healthy body,so why go for those laboratory made synthetic products?that is what i believe.so i eat fruits daily.i never take supplements and i wish i don't have to either. i like eating fruits raw than in juice form because i believe that raw ones have their nutrients intact which may get lost when we make the juice out of it.moreover the skin contains lots of nutrients.

hi femimi, i like fruit and try to eat it everyday, but dont have time to buy the fruit, so i buy a "fruit in a bottle" in other words, "vitamin" because i believe that supplement is a same as the natural fruits

The real vitamines are from fruits. Vitamin C supplement can't replace real vitamine. Nothink maked from human , can replace and be as good as real. But you can use Vitamine supplement , when you don't eat fruits , but think it's not the better choise.

I have vitamine C suppliments and also sometimes I ate fruit if I have it at home =) I do love fruit but just like u I am lazy *lol*

Yes, i consume fruits daily after my supper everyday with my family. My children also love fruits and every weekends we buy them in more quantities and store it in the Fridge. I feel it is very good for our health and also to our skin which will give glow. i like to take fruits compared to Vitamin C.

fruits r better ya..i do take thm daily...i dont prefer any supplement 4 fruits as they wont give the fresh n refreshment feelin as fruits does..keep smilin:-)

I normally do a multi-vitamin everyday. I try to eat fruit on a daily basis but normally I am lucky if I eat a serving a day. I am a diabetic and there are just a few fruits that don't raise my sugar level. I get tired of eating the same fruits over and over.

I seldom eat fruits.I know its very essential to have them everyday.But I just ignore that I don't know why.I eat balanced diet and am healthy.But to fight with disease one must eat fruits.I like mangoes and oranges.

yes every day i always consume fruits finished eat, i never changed with supplement, because fruit felt fresher to consumption comparing with supplement.

me too, i remember when i was a child after meal my mother always ask me to eat bananas or papayas, i really hate that, i dislike those two fruits,but after i separated from my parents,i almost never eat fruit, and i seldom consume vit c,

I'll try my best to eat fruits every day, but I can't do it actually in case of being busy or being lazy, but I'm trying my best, because it is really very important to our health:)

i always eat fruits everyday after meal and snacks,,vitamins does not replace fruits it does only supplements but not advisable fresh fruits is much better ..

me and my family eat fruits daily . we dont take any vitamin supplements . i think we are living in a family so its easy for us to eat as one person buys and others serves. so its not that you only have to do each and every thing , which is at times boring. i think that if also have to buy and eat alone, then i would also have been that lazy only. i m lucky to be in a family and my work is distributed among every one.

suppliment.i've never been a big fruit eater. i just don't care for them. i do like berries though,and a few of them have some vitamin c.

i agree with and i even consider humans are frutarians.though i dont take fruis coz i am on fasting .i think before man started to take cooked food .man was a frutarian. and in fact i have read lot of articles saying that we can cure lot of diseases only by taking fruits even cancer .its true and i have personnally seen that .but i dont agree with mixing fruits with other foods like vegetables and with cerals etc.fruits digest easily with 2 hours but other food will take 4 hours to diges if you mix both there will be delay in the digestion of fruit and it will start to putryfy in the stomach and it will cause lot of digestive problems int he long time.learn about this by yourself.i dont agree with you that vitamin c supplement is good.i consider all chemicals including pills are incompatible to our life .humans can only consume organic chemicals which is available from plants .if we can have inorganic chemicls we should have been able to use this directly from the soil which is full of all minerals and vitamins .but god has made us to use only organic compounds available from plants. also dont mix sour fruits with sweet fruits.

maybe the supplement can replace fruits in terms of vitamin C.but most fruits contain more nutrition than only vitamin C.personally i enjoy eating fruits and not take it as rountin.orange,banana,mango,etc.even the smell of them fascinate me so much!

i always eat fruits. sometimes, i skip a full meal just to eat a lot of fruits cause i really like it. besides its healthy. anyway, since im also away from home for college, i dont get to eat fruits regularly so my mom told me to take a supplement because it would help.
