Everybody should be eating at least five portions of fruit and vegetables a day. It is vital for your overall health.
Search for NHS Eat Well Guide which has a lot information. I quote from there:
“ Most of us still are not eating enough fruit and vegetables. They should make up over a third of the food we eat each day.
Aim to eat at least 5 portions of a variety of fruit and veg each day. Choose from fresh, frozen, tinned, dried or juiced.
Remember that fruit juice and smoothies should be limited to no more than a combined total of 150ml a day.
Fruit and vegetables are a good source of vitamins, minerals and fibre.”
Thank you happy Rosie my husband keeps telling me not eat fruit and vegetables every day he eats take aways every night and so does my step son and I know there not eating healthy hope you keep well and safe thank you for replying ❤️❤️❤️
Yes it’s important to eat vegetables and fruit , preferably fresh stuff . Far better to eat these than junk food .
Yes, if you can tolerate them. I eat lots of fresh veg but I have to go easy on the fruit as my stomach can't take too much(IBS). Take care 😉
Thank you for replying do you get bloated when have eat to much fruit I take ibs tablets I get stomach spasm you take care to Linley ❤️❤️❤️
Hi Blademink Always a good idea to eat fruit & vegetables - especially in season. This is a great time of year to make vegetable soup with all the root veggies in abundance . There's lots of salt & sugar in takeaways so they're not very good for you - and think of the £££ you could save too. One takeaway would easily buy enough frit & veg for a week 🥕🥕
Thank you doglover 1973 for replying I love making soup you take care ❤️❤️❤️

To add the chorus of folks here saying 'Eat your greens!', I would agree that it's generally a good idea and it certainly isn't going to cause problems with tinnitus if you have a healthy diet.
As a vegetarian, I'm biased, but eating a good proportion of veggies, fruits, nuts and all that other good stuff makes me feel better (he said, casting a longing look at the lovely bananas next to his desk...)
Lol I totally agree with you it makes me feel better thank you for your reply take care BTAPat ❤️❤️❤️
yes fruits and vegs are necessary for good overall health - I used to have M&S ready meals through week as well sometimes , but i have stopped these coz all ready / pre prepared meals have salt as do lots of foods ( peanut butter etc etc) Its not poss to avoid salt totally - but reduce in some ways - I am sure my T has improved ( slightly) since I reduced the salt and stopped the ready meals
yeh - many ready meals are good with veg and protein - its just the salt content - i am reducing these but i dont know if i can cut these out completely as sometimes I need the convenience of a ready meal - best look for those with reduced / low salt . We are now microwaving some hard veg like carrots in a wee dish with a bit of water for 1 minute or longer - steaming veg as well. Its more veg prep but probably worth it if it helps reduce tinnitus a wee bit
