Fruit and vegetables – getting your five a day

Eating five portions of fruit and vegetables a day provides your body with vitamins, minerals and fibre. It’s easier than you might think to get your 5 a day.

How can I get my 5 a day?

  • Try to fit in a piece of fruit or vegetable into almost every meal or snack.
  • Don’t forget that raw, cooked, canned and frozen vegetables, frozen and dried fruit and fruit canned in natural juice all count towards your 5 a day.
  • 100% pure fruit juice and smoothies also count. The recommendation is 150ml portion per day as fruit juice is high in sugar.
  • Keep your diet interesting by eating a variety of fruit and vegetables.
