Fruit and vegetables are a good source of vitamins and minerals, including folate, vitamin C and potassium. They're an excellent source of dietary fibre, which can help to maintain a healthy gut and prevent constipation and other digestion problems. A diet high in fibre can also reduce your risk of bowel cancer. They can help to reduce your risk of heart disease, stroke and some types of cancer. Fruits contribute to a healthy, balanced diet. Fruits also taste delicious and there's so much variety to choose from.
