| Popis: |
High consumption of fruits and vegetables has been linked with a reduced risk of several important chronic diseases. The authors utilized telephone survey techniques to assess the level of fruit and vegetable consumption among adult Missouri residents. Only 28% of respondents reported consumption of five servings of fruits and vegetables per day. Older females had the highest rate of consuming five servings per day, while young males had the lowest rate. These findings, in conjunction with national data, show the need for increasing emphasis on the "5 A Day" campaign. |
