In the review focuses on dietary guidelines regarding fruit and
vegetable
consumption; sources of the antioxidant micronutrients, beta-carotene
and vitamin C; and survey data on the US population's actual consumption
of these foods, Dr. Block G. at the National Cancer Institute stated
that the dietary Guidelines for Americans recommended consumption of
five or
more servings of vegetables and fruits daily, as did the 1989 Diet
and Health report, which also emphasized fruits and vegetables rich in
vitamin C and carotenoids. In contrast with these recommendations and
strong evidence for a beneficial effect, very few individuals in the
United States even approach the recommended levels of intake. In the US
NHANES II data, 41% of the population had no fruit on the survey day;
only one fourth had a fruit or vegetable rich in vitamin A or in vitamin
C. Only 10% consumed the recommended five servings. Efforts to increase
consumption of these foods are needed to improve the diet and health of the population(1).
