How Much Do I Need?
Half of a medium persimmon is about one cupped handful of sliced
persimmons. This is about a ½ cup of fruit. The amount of fruits and
vegetables you need depends on your age, if you are a boy or a girl, and
how active you are every day. All forms count toward your daily needs –
fresh, frozen, canned, and dried. Write down a list of fruits and vegetables
you will eat to reach your daily amount. (See chart below.) And remember to
get at least 60 minutes of activity every day.
