It’s concerning to hear that projections indicate a decline in fresh fruit consumption alongside an increase in junk food intake among Australians by 2030. This trend not only impacts individual health but also has broader implications for public health systems, environment, and food security.

Additionally, policies that regulate junk food marketing, especially towards children, could help mitigate this trend.
