The bar char illustrates the proportion of individuals who consumes five servings of fruit and vegetables each day between 2001 to 2008 in the UK.
From an overall perspective, It is readily apparent that the highest ratio of all people having fruit and vegetables was women, while children consistently had the lowest percentage throughout. Furthermore, a significant increase in the proportion of eating these food items can be seen over the period of time.
Moving toward the detailed analysis the percentage of women who ate fruit and vegetables started at just over 20% in 2001. This figure then rose steadily to reach a peak about 35% in 2006, before falling slightly to 30% in the final year.
With regard to the remaining indicators, men and child had almost taking the same proportion of fruit and vegetables between 2001 and 2002 (about child 13% and men 17% respectively).From this point, the proportion of men climbed gradually to peak at about 27% in 2006 and 2007, after which it dropped to about 26% in 2008. A similar growth in the figure for the children was evident reaching 26% in 2007 and around 24% in the final year.
