Phytonutrients are naturally-occurring substances found only in plant foods (fruits, vegetables, beans and whole grains such as brown rice, oats, whole wheat pasta and barley). They provide health-helping actions beyond what vitamins and minerals do.

The names of phytonutrients can be hard to pronounce and long on syllables. No need to remember which phytonutrient does what in the body, simply remember each fruit, vegetable, whole grain and bean contains a unique combination of phytos and every one of these foods is a tasty way to help you and your family enjoy the gift of good health.
