From eight hours of sleep to 10,000 steps a day - we sort health myths from medical fact
The research, which was published in the International Journal of Epidemiology, found that eating 800g – or ten portions – gave the highest protection.
The World Health Organisation has similar guidelines though some experts have said calorie counting could be harmful. But paediatrician Aaron Carroll points out that most of this water comes from other sources – fruit and veg, beer, tea and coffee. Prof Graham MacGregor, from the Wolfson Institute of Preventive Medicine in London, says the evidence we should stick to 6g is “overwhelming”.BMI fails to take into account those who have a lot of muscle and little fatis used to categorise your health. A high or low BMI may be an indicator of poor diet, low activity levels or high stress.The healthy range is regarded as 18.5 to 24.9. Anything under is underweight, above overweight. But it doesn’t work for everyone.
