I always thought vegetables were healthier than fruits.. But more people die from not eating enough fruits than from not eating enough vegetables. According to mainstream thinking at least:

Also true within high-income countries:

Of course "mainstream" medicine isn't "correct". But it's an approximation of correct that we are hard-pressed to best. We know some will be wrong, but we can't easily know which parts. I'm guessing however the fruit/vegetable thing is probably correct. Given we evolved from mostly fruit-eating mammals.
keep in mind high blood pressure and high blood sugar are both caused by being overweight
and being overweight is itself in the top 5
so basically 3 out of the top 5 risk factors are being overweight.
this is why all the really rich and really old men like Rothschilds, British Royals etc. are very thin.
being overweight is low class as is dying early as is eating grains and seed oils
