The rest of the energy arrives as radio wave, infrared, ultraviolet radiation, which is in turn broken down into ultraviolet A, B and C. None of the ultra violet C reaches the earth; UV A and B are filtered by the atmosphere, mostly by the ozone layer. But: In this country, the EPA has stated that the ozone layer has thinned over the past 12 years. The Skin Cancer Foundation estimates that this thinning could result in a 10 increase in the ultra violet B radiation reaching the ground, with the EPA calculating that this will result in at least 200,000 additional deaths from skin cancer in this country over the next 50 years.

Since youre probably on somebodys zucchini mailing list, nobody needs to tell you that now is the time for fruits and vegetables. And just in case your enthusiasm for finding new ways to eat zucchini or other fruits and vegetables is beginning to wane, press onward. Theres no better way to help reduce your chance for heart disease and cancer, said Georgia C. Lauritzen, Utah State University Extension nutrition specialist. About 35 of all cancer deaths are associated with diet, she said. Fruits and vegetables help reduce the risk of cancer because they contain little fat, high concentrations of vitamin A, vitamin C and fiber. A low fat diet, low in saturated fat and cholesterol and high in fiber, can help prevent heart disease as well, she added. Former U.S. Surgeon General C. Everett Koop said the countrys health if would improve dramatically Americans would eat at least five servings of fruits and vegetables each day. Echoing this advice, the National Institute of Health recommends the following: Eat five servings of fruits and vegetables each day. Eat at least one vitamin A rich selection each day. Eat at least one vitamin C rich selection each day. Eat at least one high fiber selection each day. Eat cabbage family vegetables several times each week. Making the change may not be as hard as you think, Lauritzen added, because you may be eating more vegetables than you thought. A serving is 12 cup of fruit, 34 cup of juice 12 cup cooked vegetable; one cup of raw leafy vegetables, or 14 cup of dried fruit. Its not so hard to make a few changes. For example: Include fruit on your cereal and also have juice for breakfast. Use fruit instead of syrup on pancakes and waffles. Add dried, canned or fresh fruit to muffins, pancakes and other breads. Choose soup with vegetables for lunch. Add more than one vegetable to a sandwich. Include raw vegetable sticks in a brown bag lunch. Keep a bag of dried fruit for nibbling between meals. Choose juice instead of soft drinks for snacks or lunch. Eat those fruit and & vegetable garnishes. Choose fresh fruit for dessert. Top frozen yogurt, ice cream or custard with fruit.
