Share of adults meeting the Australian Dietary Guidelines for vegetables in Australia as of October 2016, by remoteness of region
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.
Region remoteness is defined by population counts as follows:
• Major urban – population clusters of 100,000 people or more
• Other urban – population clusters of 1,000 to 99,999 people
• Bounded locality – population clusters of between 200 and 999 people
• Rural balance – the remainder of the state/territory.
