Medical experts around the world advise regular intake of fruits for healthy body. Intake of fruits is considered essential for the proper growth of children.

A recent report by the School Food Trust has shown that one in seven British kids don’t eat fruits.

The report also showed that 1.7 million kids in the UK never ate fruits.

According to health recommendations children should eat five fruits in a day.

Health minister, Ivan Lewis said: “We know that families in some communities still use the corner shop on a daily basis for their food and household goods. It is therefore essential that we take healthy eating options to these stores and reach those families who are at the greatest risk of poor health due to a poor diet. It’s important that people have the opportunity to buy fresh fruit and vegetables where it is convenient for them.”

Researchers claim that the concept of healthy diet is not applied in practice. Researchers added that children should be given fruits in school. British MPs are also recommending that corner shops should get government cash to sell more fruit and vegetables.
