Fruit, vegetables and fibre

The World Health Organization advises at least 400 g of fruit and vegetables a day (five portions of 80 g) and at least 25 g of fibre, the part of plants the body can't digest, from whole grains, pulses, vegetables and fruit. Eating more fibre is linked to less heart disease, type 2 diabetes and bowel cancer.
