Nutritionists agree that we should eat 5 portions of fruit and vegetables per day, but many people are unclear which fruits and vegetables count (for example potatoes don't!!) or what a 'portion' means.

So, to help, we've listed below which fruits and vegetables do count, and the size of one portion. Try to eat at least 5 different portions to get a good range of vitamins and minerals.

If you have any doubts that you aren't getting an adequate range of vitamins and minerals from your diet, why not check out our range of weight loss supplements, to ensure you stay healthy while you diet.
