Carbs: Fruits/Veggies vs. other carbs

Most dietitians and national/international nutritional authorities are recommending a minimum of 5 servings of fruit/veggies daily. Details vary, sometimes it's something like 3 veggies, 2 fruits or similar; sometimes it's half cup servings for most things, maybe one cup for fluffy stuff like leafy greens, 1/4 cup or less for dried things (like dried fruit, for example); I think the UK suggests 80g servings for most things.

A few sources are now suggesting 10 or more servings daily instead of 5. I think the UK was flirting with recommending 10, but I'm not sure they finally did.

Different countries seem to limit the number of servings of things of things that people in that country tend to get more of already, when they count servings. I think the UK said one should count no more than one serving of beans (not green beans, but the kind people put in baked beans), and the US limits how many potato servings count, if I recall correctly.

I know I'm being ridiculously vague here, but in my view, the point is the generalities they usually have in common: 5 servings minimum, 10 may be better, reasonable serving size, don't eat too much of any one veg/fruit but rather keep it varied types and colors.

My personal goal is a daily minimum of 5 x 80g servings of fruit/veg, and I shoot for 10+ x 80g servings (usually get there, or at least close). I make it a point to vary types and colors during a day, and over time. I count beans or potatoes, but don't tend to overdo either one (hardly ever eat potatoes, in fact, despite being USAian).

To me a hint that I'm doing OK - though not a guarantee - is that I'm always over my MFP fiber minimum daily, usually well over all the micronutrient minimums it tracks, on a daily basis . . . and pretty much always over the micro minimums looking at weekly averages. It'll do, for me. YMMV.

P.S. I literally don't care how many grams of carbs I eat. I look at protein as a minimum, fat as a minimum, and let carbs be the balancer to hit calories most of the time. I try to keep a good bit of mono/polyunsaturated fats in the mix, and balance Omega-3 and Omega-6 at least roughly, not overdo sat fats. I think I'm more structured about nutritional goals that the average person here, and probably more structured than necessary for reasonable health. For sure, don't let yourself get pulled into orthorexia, where some kind of "proper eating" looms so large psychologically that it starts to seem vital to be perfect always. If I have a day or few that's off, I don't feel stressed about it. I've just tweaked my eating patterns so that I'm pretty much where I want to be most of the time, staying full and happy eating foods I like, plus a few treats.
