Fruits are a source of nourishing substances that keep us alive and healthy. For example,
they contain many vitamins, especially vitamins A and C, and many mineraIs, such as calcium,
potassium, and zinc. They also provide fiber for a healthy digestive system and carbohydrates
that the body needs to make energy. They don't have a lot of calories to make us fat.
People use fruits for many things. We make juices from them. We cook bread and pie
with them. We make jams, jellies, and sweets. We freeze them to eat later. We even make
a1cohol from fruit. Beer comes from grains, wine comes from grapes, and some brandies are
made from plums, apricots, or other fruits.

they are!

warmth.
