A survey released on the UOL website and carried out by Vigitel (Surveillance of Risk and Protection Factors for Chronic Diseases by Telephone Survey) Brazil in 2019, showed that women are the ones who consume the most fruits and vegetables. In addition, consumption is even higher according to age, that is, children still have more difficulties to consume.
However, Brazil in general increased its consumption. The recommendation is 5 servings of fruits and vegetables at least 5 days a week and this number has grown from 20% in 2008 to 22.9% in 2019.
