Tag: Healthy eating statistics

According to the latest 2022 Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS) National Health Survey, only 6.5% of Australian adults met the recommended daily vegetable intake. This low consumption rate is linked to a higher risk of chronic diseases and significant health implications across the country.

While surveys reveal that a significant majority of people express a desire to eat healthy, often over 90% in some studies, the rate of consistent follow-through is much lower, highlighting a notable intention-behavior gap. The question, "What percent of people try to eat healthy?" often gets a simple answer, but the reality is far more complex than a single number.
