Abstract
â¶ We estimate the impact of the UK 5-a-day campaign over the period 2002-2006. â¶ A counterfactual demand model allows to disentangle the effects of increased prices. â¶ On average, the program has increased fruit and vegetable intakes by 0.3 portions. â¶ Impacts across income groups vary because of differences in elasticities.
