New CSIRO report reveals Australians need to ’embrace’ vegetables

New research from the CSIRO Australians are still not eating enough vegetables.

Accredited dietician and chief health officer of Healthylife, Simone Austin, says Australian’s are only buying half of the recommended amount of vegetables.

“We’ve got to make vegies the hero, we’ve got to think about them as not ‘oh, yuck’ on our plate, we’ve really got to embrace them,” she told Tony Jones, filling in for Neil Mitchell.
