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.
Most men from the age of 19 to 50 should eat about three cups of vegetables per day. Men over the age of 50 may only need about 2 1/2 cups. Men who get at least 30 minutes of exercise every day may need more vegetables. Women from the age of 19 to 50 need about 2 1/2 cups every day, while women over the age of 50 need about two cups. As with men, women who are physically active every day may need more.
