Recommended fruit and vegetable intake depends on sex, age, and level of physical activity, so there is no magic number that every person should follow. However, most adults should consume an average of 1.5-2 cups of fruit per day and 2-3 cups of vegetables per day. The USDA offers helpful guidelines to determine what counts as a cup of fruits or vegetables.
Boys and girls from age four to eight years old should eat 1 1/2 cups of vegetables every day. One serving for a small child may be only three or four tablespoons. Girls age nine to thirteen should eat at least two cups of vegetables every day and boys of the same age should eat 2 1/2 cups daily. Kids who are active and get at least 30 minutes of exercise every day may need even more.
