The presented bar chart illustrates the proportion of UK population who prioritized the amount of fruit and vegetables on a regular basis from 2002 to 2010.
Overall, it is discernible that all three groups witnessed an upward trend in the first 4 years and a decrease between 2006 and 2010. Saliently, the majority of women consumed the daily amount of fruit and vegetables, whereas the lowest consumption was recorded in children in all three years.
In 2002, the data for women stood at around 25%, whereas men accounted for around 22% of the consumption amount. Furthermore, the lowest share can be seen in children with only 11%. Over the next 4 years, this figure for women significantly increased and peaked at approximately 32%, followed by a minimal rise of 6% and 5% of men and children consumers, respectively.
From 2006 to 2010, all three brackets saw a downward trajectory, with the consumption proportion of women significantly dropped by 5%; however, women maintained the highest percentage in the consumption amount of fruit and vegetables. Similarly, the data for men and children saw a marginal decrease, ending the given time frame with nearly 16% and 14%, respectively.
