"Vegetables are low in fat and calories. They also provide fiber, vitamins (such as vitamins A and C and folate) and minerals. Different vegetables are good sources of different nutrients. Eat a variety of vegetables. Include dark-green leafy vegetables (spinach, romaine, kale, mustard greens, collard greens, turnip greens), deep-yellow vegetables (carrots, sweet potatoes, yellow squash), and legumes (navy, pinto, kidney, chickpeas, etc.) several times each week. (Legumes can count either as a vegetable or can be used in place of meat.)" As stated at: http://www.healthgoods.com/Education/nutrition_information/Food_Groups/why_vegetables_important.htm
