Can fruits replace vegetables

Female  32 years old 2018-06-21
Because I don’t like vegetables and I’m afraid of vitamin supplements, I plan to eat more fruits instead of vegetables to supplement vitamins. Is this useful?

    It is not acceptable to replace fruits with vegetables. The amount of minerals and vitamins contained in fruits is much smaller than that of vegetables. If you do not eat vegetables, fruit alone is definitely not enough to provide enough nutrients. Cheap vegetables are sometimes better than fruits. In terms of vitamin C content, cheap cabbage and radish are about 10 times higher than apples, pears and peaches. The vitamin C content of green peppers and cauliflower is 2-3 times that of strawberries and citrus. Where fruits outweigh vegetables. Fruits contain organic acids and aromatic substances, which play an important role in promoting appetite and helping the absorption of nutrients. And the fruit does not need to be cooked, and there is no problem of nutrient loss.
