7 servings a day of fruit and vegetables maximizes your attractiveness and mental well-being.

American portions are bigger: half a cup of cooked vegetables, or 1 cup of a raw leafy green.

Actually, are fruits and vegetables in the same bucket?

Or should we steer more toward vegetables than fruits?

Fruits and vegetables were in the same bucket for this study.

I find fruits more enjoyable than vegetables.

I could easily eat 7 servings of fruit a day. Vegetables would be harder.
