Percent of Adults Who Reported Consuming Fruit Less than 1 Time Per Day

State: Kansas
Measurement Period: 2021
This indicator shows the percentage of adults who consume fruit less than 1 time per day.

NOTE: Estimates are not available for the counties with an insufficient sample.

Why is this important?

Fruit and vegetable intake (at least 2 ½ cups) is associated with reduced risk of many chronic diseases, including heart attack, stroke and certain types of cancer. Most fruits and vegetables, when prepared without added fats or sugars, are also relatively low in calories and can help individuals achieve and maintain a healthy weight. Despite the benefits, many people still do not eat recommended levels of fruits and vegetables.
