Thesis (Ph.D.)--Saint Louis University, 2004.

It is becoming increasingly clear that specific fruits and vegetables are unique in their ability to reduce the risk for multiple chronic diseases like some cancers, heart disease and stroke, and cataract formation. The select fruits and vegetables strongly associated with decreased risk are described as green leafy (e.g., spinach, greens), yellow/orange (e.g., carrots, winter squash), cruciferous (e.g., cauliflower, brussel sprouts), and citrus (e.g., oranges, grapefruit) patterns, identified as powerhouse fruits and vegetables. Research suggests that if powerhouse fruits and vegetables were eaten more often they could significantly impact the health of the public. Increasing powerhouse fruits and vegetables is on the nation's agenda as underscored in Healthy People 2010 with goals that aim for the population to eat a minimum of 3 servings of vegetables daily with one-third or more of those servings coming from dark green or orange vegetable sources. Despite this, current intake of powerhouse fruit and vegetables is low with only 3% meeting these goals in 2000 and overall national fruit and vegetable intake is leveling off. To address this gap between national powerhouse fruit and vegetable consumption goals and actual intake, this dissertation project includes: (1) a review to examine the extent to which powerhouse fruit and vegetable evidence has been translated into meaningful dietary recommendations for the public, (2) a theoretical model for understanding the multiple and complex influences upon eating behaviors, and (3) a data driven approach to identify changeable powerhouse fruits and vegetables to inform a community-based intervention. The dissertation concludes with several implications for public health practice and future research directions.
