Upton, Wirral -- (SBWIRE) -- 03/13/2017 -- It has recently been reported in the news that five portions of fruit and vegetables has now grown to ten. The research behind this has found that eating ten portions of fruit and vegetables a day can increase people's life span and reduce risks of diseases such as cancer.

This study has found that consuming ten portions of fruit and vegetables a day does in fact reduce the risk of heart disease by twenty-four percent, cancer by thirteen percent and the risk of a stroke by thirty-three percent.

This has come at a great time as many people are getting worried about the rising number of overweight and obese people in the UK – which consequently has a negative impact on the NHS. Not only does being overweight and obese higher the risk of getting a disease, for example heart disease and cancer, but it has been known that overweight parents have overweight children.

A spokesperson from Grow & Harvest was incredibly keen to comment saying, "We were delighted when we heard this news. Many people don't realise how good fruit and vegetables are for you, they're full of vitamins and nutrients which can help you lose weight, and most importantly get you fit and healthy.
