How do you get your 5 a day?

https://blog.extraface.com/2024/08/07/fh1mu8orf4 As most of us know, “5 a day” refers to the well publicized government campaign that we should all eat 5 portions of fruit and vegetables every day as part of a healthy diet.
The intention behind this campaign was to simply get us all eating more fresh produce. A portion of fruit is one banana or apple, or a handful of dried fruit, or 3 tablespoons of vegetables (80g). Check out this link for more details on portion sizes.

Also, fruit juice and beans or pulses can count towards the 5 a day, but only count as a maximum of one portion irrespective of how much you have.

Well I seem to remember reading that following some research on fruit and vegetables the optimum number of servings a day was actually 8 or 9. But given that a lot of people hardly eat any at all, the UK average being around 2-3 portions a day, 5 was considered a more realistic target to engage the general public.

https://nedediciones.com/uncategorized/u4rh8u5ahttps://mandikaye.com/blog/91vbcws So I conclude that the number 5 is pretty much plucked out of thin air. However, in terms of your diet, 5 is an achievable number to aim for without being excessive. I probably get 3-7 portions a day in myself. Fruit and veg ARE healthy, they provide energy in the form of carbohydrates, they provide vitamins and minerals, and they provide fibre. They add variety to the diet, and fill you up for relatively few calories. Despite the number 5 being random, it doesn’t seem unreasonable.

https://www.completerehabsolutions.com/blog/xom1ztfhttps://polyploid.net/blog/?p=28qrnh25 Part of the problem is a lack of regulation surrounding the 5 a day promotion. The UK government have an official logo which looks like this:

https://nedediciones.com/uncategorized/zt7q6s44xf It can only be used on approved foods, but there is nothing which stops manufacturers putting their own 5 a day claims and logos on packets.
One of the sneakiest claims which has recently come to my attention is the logo “1/2 of your 5 a day”. Beware if you see this. It may not mean 1/2 of the whole 5, as in 2 and a 1/2 apples. It means 1/2 of 1 of your 5. As in half an apple.

If you buy a ready meal, buy it because you want it, not because it contains 1 of your 5 a day. And then buy some fresh or frozen veg to go with it. And a banana for dessert. Sorted.

That is tricky when food manufacturers can “tweak” the good to make it not really all that good. I often wonder where those numbers come from.
