- Abstract
This article presents news from the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. The study examines the prevalence of fruit and vegetable consumption and physical activity by race/ethnicity in the United States in 2005. The study found that men ate less fruits and vegetables than women did during the year. It also found that white men ate fewer fruits and vegetables than did men of other races but they exercised more. White women scored higher than other ethnic groups for the consumption of fruits and vegetables and for engaging in regular physical activity. Overall the report found that not enough people engage in both healthy eating and physical exercise.
