In a new report, the Center for Disease Control (CDC) found that less than a third of adults eat the recommended serving of fruits and vegetables each day. Although the CDC has been taking steps to encourage healthier eating, Americans are still not getting what they should. You should be eating 5 to 9 serving of fruits and vegetables a day.
