Childless Couples Have a More Healthy Diet than Other Families

New research from the University of Reading has shown that childless couples have a more healthy diet than other families.
Researchers discovered that childless couples consumed nearly 5lb more fruit and veg than other families over a fortnightly period.
Couples who have no children have more healthy diets than those who have children.
Recent research has shown that couples with children tend to have healthier diets to begin with, incorporating salads and other fresh produce upon the arrival of their first born. However, that all changes with the arrival of the second child.
Many children need exposure to new foods about 15 times prior to eating it. Hence, a great proportion of parents give up and cease buying specific fruits and veg,
The additional deterent in terms of fruit and veg consumption within families with children is the expense; cost deters many parents from buying fresh fruit and veg. Hence, they opt for cheaper, more likely, less healthy meals.
