The difference between vegetables and fruits
The difference between vegetables and fruits is:

1, the same ingredients are different: the minerals and trace elements in fruits are not as rich as those in vegetables, but the contents of vitamin B and vitamin A are relatively low, so if fruits are completely used instead of vegetables, the above vitamins and trace elements may be deficient.

2, different calories: fruits are rich in fructose, and the calorie effect far exceeds that of vegetables. Therefore, eating the same amount of fruits and vegetables, fruits are more likely to promote obesity and overweight. Patients with diabetes and obesity should strictly control the consumption of fruits, while vegetables are relatively safer.

3. Different acidity and alkalinity: Compared with fruits, vegetables are alkaline foods, which can more effectively regulate the internal environment balance, relieve fatigue and discharge toxins. Because fruit contains tannic acid, the effect of regulating human internal environment is even worse.
