According to the “Healthy Eating Food Pyramid”, it is recommended that adults consume at least two servings of fruit and three servings of vegetables every day. However, as revealed in the Population Health Survey 2014/15 conducted by the Department of Health, there was cause for concern that only 5.6% of respondents had an average intake of five or more servings of fruit and vegetables per day.

To further promote the importance of fruit and vegetables, the Department of Health has recently produced a new promotional video and poster entitled “2+3: Eat Fruit and Vegetables Every Day” as part of its efforts to encourage the public to have an adequate daily intake of fruit and vegetables for optimal health.
