I might have 2 portions a week, mum and dad only buy fruit occasionally, if they buy grapes then I'll munch on them till the heartburn stops me but don't like most veg, I'll eat carrots and broccoli with a full meal but that's it, and we only usually have them once a week tops
I've got better things to be doing than eating fruit and veg all day

So people should just quit looking into what the body needs, just because we don't get ill straight away eating a poor/inadequate diet?

Use your brain, they don't tell you to eat fruit and veg to keep insects away do they, its in regards to vitamins and nutrients that are used by the body which helps you stay health etc.
Try this example, you have a car, you run injector cleaner with every tank of diesel, in turn this keeps the injectors in tip top condition, the engine lasts 200k (if could potentially break down or crash in its life time killing it regardless, just like a human) for this example it doesn;t, if you wouldn't have used the injector cleaner, they may have broke 160k inwards (may not but if its something valuable, such as your life then you try and do the best for it.

no, but what im saying is you dont know what effect not eating them is going to have on your body. May not show now but in the future you just don't know.
And tbh, they don't just say it for no reason
