Research has demonstrated that increasing fruit and vegetable consumption promotes healthy aging by delaying the onset or severity of a variety of chronic conditions (Hendrix et al., 2008; Nicklett & Kadell, 2013). The subsequent increased consumption of phytochemicals associated with a diet rich in fruits and vegetables is a component thought to be associated with the observed health benefits (Si & Liu, 2014). Phytochemicals are nonessential, nonnutritive compounds (Si & Liu, 2014)
