Did you know?
92% of Australians don’t consume enough vegetables daily (<5 serves). 52% of Australians don’t consume enough fruits daily (<2 serves). 2 in 3 (63%) of Australians are overweight or obese from excessive energy intake (carbohydrate, fat, protein, alcohol).
Simple tips: 1) Fill half of your plate or bowl with non-starchy vegetables first. Then place your carbohydrates (grains or starchy vegetables) and lean protein which should be one quarter each. 2) Obtain your intake of dairy and fruit food groups by adding them into meals or having them at midmeals.
Don’t delay and try it today :) Disclaimer: This is for general healthy eating. If you have any health conditions see a dietitian for individualised advice.
