  • There should be at least 5 portions of Fruit and Vegetables per day. However that is rather a minimum guideline. The only way you will know how many vegetables per day you have to eat (and what type) is following your nutrient intake. Record what foods you eat and what nutrients they provide. If you are running low in a certain nutrient (let's take Potassium), try to eat a vegetable or fruit which is rich in that particular mineral. Most vegetables and fruits are rich in various essential minerals and vitamins, which the human body is unable to produce itself. Therefore eating vegetables is essential for health.

you need 2-3 fruits and vegetables a day

To be healthy and have plenty of vitamins and energy, it is a good idea to eat five or more servings of fresh fruit and vegetables every day. A serving should be about the size of your closed fist.

The amount of servings of fruits and vegetables varies from person to person. This is due to how not everyone needs the same amount of servings of certain food groups. Generally, three servings of each are a minimum.
