I've heard that some fruits and vegetables are better than others - in fact that some can be unhealthy for us. Can anyone reference (with citation or website link) some type of study or evidence or list of which fruits and veges are best and worst? Thanks!

I would have to say nope. Different fruits and veggies have both of their pros and cons. Live avocados: they're high in fat, but they are a wonderful source of copper, magnesium, potassium, zinc, vitamin B6, the list goes on. Fruits like apples can have 13 grams of sugar or more, but they are an excellent source of fiber and vitamin c. So, yeah some do have some 'down sides' but in the end, you body is soooo much better off eating anything that grows from the ground than something processed.

Depending on what vitamin or nutrient you are wanting to increase or decrease in your diet, each fruit and vegetable has its own good and bad properties. Any food in large amounts can be bad, and many fruits such as apples are high in natural sugars if you are concerned about blood sugar, however, if you need more fiber apples are a good choice. However, there is no "best" or "worst" veggie.

The only reason I know of that a fruit or vegetable would be unhealthy is if one was allergic to it.

ive never heard of any fruit or vegetable that was unhealthy. i do certain ones like lettuce and watermelon are just mainly water so they are not as healthy as say, asparagus or apples.

I have got a huge problem with Egg Plant. It looks nothing like an egg. Is it just me or what?
