Note: In May 2015, CSIRO and SP Health launched the CSIRO Healthy Diet Score survey. The CSIRO Healthy Diet Score is based on a scientifically validated online tool which assesses an individual’s self-reported food intake against the Australian Dietary Guidelines. Further details on the survey methodology can be found on pages 4 and 5 of the report.
The Australian Dietary Guidelines provide age and gender specific recommendations for fruit and vegetable intake. While there is some variation, on average it is recommended that Australians consume 2 serves of fruit and 5 serves of vegetables each day.
