The recommendations for X amount of fruits and vegetables a day are a way for the general public to focus on healthier non-processed sources of carbohydrates, more specifically, the focus is on making sure people get their required levels of micronutrients and fibre which processed carbohydrates dramatically lack.

Generally, it's 10-12 servings (1/2 cup of chipped fruit, 1 medum sized fruit or 1 cup of raw vegetables) per day. With a 5:1 veggie to fruit ratio. When you're cutting weight, this becomes more important as fruit is still sugar, but overall well being, fruit isn't a problem in moderation.

Nope, I used to but I just don't see the point anymore. There is honestly no need to weigh your vegetables out, unless they are starchy vegetables (basically everything that isn't green and leafy). Just try and get 2 portions of green vegetables in every meal and I promise you will be fine!

Does this mean I shouldn't be worried? I rarely eat processed food. My main sources of carbs are oats, fruits and vegetables.
