Text 1Brazilians eating more sugar and less fruit
An IBGE survey has shown that Brazilians are eating too much sugar and not enough fruit and vegetables
Eating rice and beans [1] for lunch has always been a
very common habit for millions and millions of Brazilians. However, in recent years Brazilians have been eating less of this traditional dish [2]. Between 2003 and 2009 Brazilians ate 40% less rice and 26% fewer beans. In addition, domestic consumption of soft drinks [3] rose [4] by 40% and beer consumption rose by 23%. These are the findings [5] of a study carried out by the IBGE between 2008 and 2009. The result of the study was only released in late December 2010. The IBGE survey revealed some disturbing [6] facts about the eating habits of Brazilians. One is that Brazilians are consuming more and more processed food [7] and less fruit and vegetables than they should. The daily consumption of fruit and vegetables, foods considered to be very healthy, makes up less than 3% of the Brazilian diet. The ideal amount [8] would be between 9% and 12%, according to nutritionists.
