What exactly is a portion or a serving of veg or fruits ?


A portion of fresh fruits or veggies is 80 grams. The World
Health Organisationrecommends at least 400 grams of fruits and vegetables
daily to prevent obesity,heart disease, cancer and type 2 diabetes.

 So breaking this 400 into five servings means each serving should be around 80 grams.
