A recent study by the University of Warwick in the U.K. found a link between fruit and vegetable intake and mental wellbeing. According to the survey in England that included 14,000 participants, eating five servings of fruits and vegetables every day leads to a better mental health.
The participants had their mental health assessed by the Warwick-Edinburgh Mental Wellbeing Scale, and they were all older than 16 years old. The study, published in the British Medical Journal, also found in 2012 that mental wellbeing peaked when fruits and vegetables were consumed in seven portions per day.
