National Nutrition Week

Try for 5 National Nutrition Week is Nutrition Australia’s annual healthy eating awareness campaign, drawing focus of the positive benefits on both our mental and physical health through consuming good nutritious food. 

Try for 5 aims to inspire Australians to enjoy vegetables through highlighting the fun and creative ways Australians can incorporate veg into their day. The Australian Dietary Guidelines recommend at least five standard serves of vegetables per day should be consumed for good health, but with only 7% of adults an 5% of children eating the recommended serves of vegetables each day, Nutrition Australia created this campaign to raise awareness of the benefits of eating vegetables.
