Health fears over lack of fruit and veg in adult diet
Only 21% of adult men and 19% of women in Ireland are meeting the current World Health Organisation (WHO) target, with young children eating even less, a recent study has found.
The food safety promotion board, safefood, in a review of the “fruit and vegetable food chain” throughout the country found that despite consumers being well informed of the health benefits of a diet rich in fruit and vegetables, consumption remains low.
