Does eating 5 a day of fruit and veg actually help?

I agree that we increase our intake of vitamins and nutrients and fibre by consuming five portions of fruit and veg daily.  This helps with our immune system and digestion and hair /skin etc.

It also helps us lose weight as the body is almost fooled into becoming satisfied that we have eaten and yet taken very few calories in the process.

The hard part is being strict with ourselves and making sure we stick to the 5 a day or 6 a day or 7 a day targets we set ourselves.
