They found that a high intake of fruit and vegetables led to weight loss over the 24 year period, but the researchers also found that eating fruit appears to be twice as effective as eating vegetables. Every extra portion of fruit eaten a day led to almost half a pound being shed over the four year period.

A handful of blueberries a day was linked to nearly a pound and a half of weight loss, and prunes, apples, pears and strawberries were also found to contribute to weight loss.

Because of their high starch and low water content, potatoes are higher in calories than most vegetables.
因為土豆含淀粉多而含水量少，所以它們所含卡路里比大部分蔬菜都要高。
Although the magnitude of weight change associated with each increased daily serving was modest, combining an increase of one to two servings of vegetables and one to two servings of fruits daily would be associated with substantial weight change.
盡管體重的增加與每日的飲食關系并不大，但是與每天多吃一兩份蔬菜、多吃一兩份水果相結合，有利于大幅度的體重變化。
