Fruits are a health powerhouse, providing gut-friendly fiber, disease-fighting antioxidants, and key micronutrients such as Vitamin C for iron absorption, folate for pregnant women, and potassium for heart and muscle health.
Starting at age nine, it’s recommended to consume two daily fruit servings. A serving can be a medium fruit (e.g., an apple or banana), two smaller fruits (like kiwis), or one cup of chopped fruit or berries.
Fruits are generally low in calories, with 100 calories or fewer per serving.
