It feels like there’s an incredible amount of conflicting information out there when it comes to healthy eating. But have you ever noticed that there is one consistent message?
Yep, everyone from the vegans, to the raw food brigade, to the low fat fans, and even my fellow slow carbers all agree we should eat more vegetables.
so how much is enough?
According to the Australian Guide to Healthy Eating, most people should be aiming for at least 5 serves of veg a day.
Pregnant ladies and breastfeeding mums should be aiming for 6 – 7 serves.
Children’s needs increase with their age. But basically by the time you’re 8 years old, you should be aiming for 5 serves as well.
what exactly is a serve of vegetables?
Glad... More...
