What is the difference between fruits and vegetables?

Answer

Best,

From a nutritional point of view, both vegetables and fruits are very good suppliers of vitamins and minerals. Especially if you vary a bit with the species, you have a very balanced intake.

On the food triangle they are together in a beam, but also separately. What matters here is the difference, namely the fruit sugars or fructose. I think you have already experienced that fruit is much sweeter. It naturally contains a certain amount of fruit sugar. There are differences according to the species; eg bananas and grapes actually contain the most. That fructose also provides us with energy, so calories. For the same amount, fruit naturally contains a lot more calories than vegetables. Hence the difference in 2 squares, but within the same block.

We need 300 grams of vegetables per day, which is an enormous amount (ie half a plate with the hot meal and a salad with the sandwich). You need 2-3 pieces of fruit per day.

People who follow a slimming diet are therefore not allowed to eat unlimited fruit, but this is almost the case for vegetables. Of course you have to make sure that your diet remains balanced.
