Fruits and Vegetables

Fruits and vegetables add nutrients to your diet that help protect you from heart disease, stroke, and some cancers. In addition, choosing vegetables, fruits, nuts, and other produce over high-calorie foods can help you manage your weight.

Physical Activity for All

Everybody needs physical activity for good health. However, less than half of U.S adults with serious difficulty walking or climbing stairs (mobility disability) report engaging in aerobic physical activity. For those who are active, walking is the most common physical activity. Yet, adults with disabilities report more environmental barriers for walking than those without disabilities.
