This BBC report reveals that the current guideline of 5 fruits and vegetables daily is too low and they now recommend 7 servings. My recommendation to patients is to include NINE servings of vegetables and fruits daily!! Serving size for raw = 1 cup and for cooked = 1/2 cup, in general. Check out your diet and add some veggies if you’re too low. Try hitting your local farmer’s market for the best deals on fresh produce 🙂
