How to get 10 fruit and vegetable servings per day
We've long been told to get our "5 a day", but new studies show that 10 portions of fruit and vegetables per day is much much better. Eating 10 servings per day was associated with a 24% reduced risk of heart disease and a 33% reduced risk of strike (amongst numerous other benefits).
