The latest study, published in the journal Sleep Health, showed that shifting from a lifestyle of eating no fruits to one including five cups a day can induce sound sleep at night.

What the hell is a cup of fruit?

The sentence took me way too long to parse. I read it as “shifting from a lifestyle of eating no fruits to one (fruit) including five cups a day”

“Fruits” and a volume measurement is such a strange way to word it too. Which fruits? How much is a cup? Is it a Canadian, American, or English cup? Is it maybe some other measure?
