The bar graph compares how many people ate the recommended amount of fruits and vegetables on a daily basis in Great Britain in the three years: 2002, 2006, and 2010; measurements are given in percentage.
Overall, women consistently had the highest consumption of produce, followed closely by men, with children trailing behind. It is also clear that 2006 marked the peak year of consumption for all three demographic groups.
In 2002, 25% of females consumed the recommended amount of fruits and vegetables, the highest among other counterparts, while 22% of males did the same. By 2006, the figures for women had risen to a staggering 32%; similarly, the percentage of men increased by 4%. However, in the final year both groups had experienced a slight decrease (24%—men and 26%—women).
In terms of children, they consistently showed the lowest points of produce consumption throughout the given period. In 2002, only 11% of children followed the recommended guidelines, roughly half the proportion of adults. Although this figure increased significantly to 18% by 2006, it slightly declined by 2% in 2010, still lagging behind the other two demographic categories.
