Go For 2 And 5

April 13th 2007 07:28
The ‘Go For Two And 5’ is a nation wide campaign to encourage people to include more fruit and vegetables in their diet. According to the website most Australians eat only half of the recommended intake, and this does not surprise me in the least! Adults require at least 2 serves of fruit and five serves of vegetables each day to maintain a health diet. This will help to prevent disease, fatigue and unhealthy weight gain.

Anyway, what actually first drew me to this concept are the excellent promotional advertisments which I have seen on TV and in print. They feature a ‘veggie man’. Its actually quite clever and I recommend that you check it out, even if only for his artistic merits! As the name suggests the mascot is made of vegetables which oddly contort when he speaks, a rather attention grabbing effect. You can view a storyboard of the advertisment on the website.

And if this does also encourage you to take more of an interest in healthy eating, there are plenty of resources and recipes on the site as well. The apple and banana hot cakes look yummy!

It is believed that the use of low-resolution images and text extracts in this context to illustrate the advertisment in question,

on the www.foodherald.com hosted on a server in Australia by www.orble.com , qualifies as fair use under Australian copyright law

Great blog and very informative...I eat tons of fruits and vegetables myself, sometimes simply steamed with a bit of spices and a touch of butter...More people should take care of themselves and eat properly! With my demanding, stressful and sometimes hectic job, if I didn't eat properly I'd be in bad shape lol..


Take care,


Nick

I really think that's true- if you have a busy lifestyle you HAVE to keep healthy. Especially if you have as mammoth a number of blogs as you!
