Data for Greater Glasgow and Clyde as a whole shows marked variation in fruit and vegetable consumption by area deprivation quintiles. The proportion of adults eating the recommended amounts of fruit and vegetable in the two least deprived quintiles was almost twice that in the most deprived quintile. 

Notes

These figures are self-reported levels of fruit and vegetable consumption in the previous day.
