In today’s world, stress is prevalent. Researchers are currently looking for ways to reduce stress through lifestyle interventions. A new study from Edith Cowan University (ECU) has found that eating a diet rich in fruits and vegetables is associated with less stress.

The Australian Diabetes and Lifestyle (AusDiab) Study aimed to find a link between fruit and vegetable intake and stress levels. To achieve this, they examined 8,600 Australian participants between the ages of 25 and 91.
