Right guys well my diet is somewhat lacking in veggies alot of the time recetly i find myself eating just chicken on its own i wanna start throwing some veggies in the mix.. can some one tell me the importance of veggies?

I only like a few i like tomatoes cucumber broccoli green beans, peas, sweetcorn, lettuce, green red and yellow peppers, theres probly loads im missing but the fact is i have been neglecting them quite badly

whats the best veggies for carbs?

I watched a interveiw with ronnie coleman and he says he doesnt eat any veggies he just has like some multi vit pills and specific pills to compensate for the lack of veggies...

I hope some one can shed some light on this vegetable mystry that surrounds us all

Just remember the world is just a great big onion!

most root type veggies (potatos, carrots, sweet potatos) are higher in carbs than leafy types.

Corn and peas have a good amount of carbs as well.

Vitamins should only be used to "supplement" your diet, not to be the exclusive supply of your nutrients. Aside from the typical vitamins/minerals you find in veggies, they are also high in phytonutrients. These are found exclusively in plants and are usually destroyed during the cooking process. So even canned veggies would more than likely lack these.

Plus, you feel satiated after eating fibrous veggies which means you're less likely to eat less desirable foods that can affect your health/weight in a negative way.

cool well i eat fresh tomatoes not the tinned stuff.. frozen peas or fresh green beans.. sweetcorn is always out the tin sometimes on the cob lol with the peppers i like them fresh (more crunchy) but i will put them on the grill for about a min just to toast them a bit but i prefer em crunchy! cucumber is never tinned always fresh lettuce always fresh and broccoli is always fresh so its really only the sweetcorn that comes out the tin..

Exactly this. Add in some raw bell peppers here and there, lots of tomatoes, and baby, you've got a diet goin'!
If you need carbs, sweet potatoes are fucking tasty and are a good source of complex carbs.

Veggies provide the body with essential minerals as well as balance out the acidity/alkalinity of the body.

Even a savory version is almost like dessert. I cut em up in ~1/2" cubes, drizzle with olive oil and seasonings on a baking sheet with thin sliced onions, throw in the oven until they are a little brown on the edges. Dayum good!!

spinach is high in Oxalate and this makes them a risk factor for kidney stones

Also uncooked spinach leaches vitamins and mineral , just bad news
