@Fragglemuppet The main problem with 2 of these 3 of these statements is how very vague they are.
Some fruits have more vital nutrients than some vegetables without question, but likewise some grains, nuts & legumes have more vital nutrients than almost all fruits and vegetables. Another standard of "healthier" beyond how many vital nutrients a food has can legitimately be considered "how much of the most commonly needed nutrients food has" which would have this order different from that other standard. Genetic differences do alter how much of which nutrients are best for individual people which complicates this even more, beyond if any what medical problems they have, their life phase and how physically active, or not, they are.

Also individual nutrients almost never act on a person's health on their own, which is why so many studies on individual ones completely fail in replicability to determine the answer to seemingly simple questions as "Is X good or bad for Alpha?"
