How Much Do You Need?
Dr. Sears recommends aiming for a minimum of 1,000mg per day for general wellness. To give a sense of what 1,000mg of polyphenols per day looks like, it could be approximately 5 ½ cups of broccoli, 1 ½ cups of blueberries, 2 ¼ cups of strawberries or a combination of various fruits and vegetables. A good rule of thumb is that consuming 10 servings ofvegetables and fruits per day will provide about 1,000mg of polyphenols per day.
