Abstract in brief

Increasing the total amount of fruits and vegetables eaten is linked to a lower risk of coronary heart disease (CHD), while simply having a greater variety does not show the same benefit.
The study analyzed data from two large groups of health professionals followed over many years, focusing on their fruit and vegetable intake and CHD cases.
Eating specific types of fruits and vegetables, like citrus fruits and leafy greens, was associated with reduced CHD risk, highlighting the importance of quantity and certain healthy subgroups rather than just variety.]
