African Americans and Hispanics are disproportionately burdened by cardiovascular risk factors including hypertension, diabetes mellitus, and obesity. There is evidence that fruits and vegetables have protective benefits for cardiovascular health. Factors associated with fruit and vegetable intake among older minority adults are not well established. A cross-sectional analysis of African American and Hispanic adults >55 years with diagnosis of hypertension and/or diabetes was conducted. Daily intake of fruits and vegetables was analyzed by socio-demographic, health status, health behaviors, and access to fruits and vegetables. 77% of participants did not meet the United States Department of Agriculture ≥5 a day serving guidelines. Fruit and vegetable consumption was not associated with having hypertension or diabetes. Body mass index >25 and regular exercise were significantly associated with more vegetable intake, but not fruit. African Americans consumed significantly less fruits and vegetables than Hispanics. Among those with access to fruits and vegetables, 78% did not meet the guidelines. Many older African American and Hispanic adults with cardiovascular disease risk factors do not meet the fruit and vegetable intake guidelines. Inadequate intake is worse among African Americans, sedentary, and non-overweight/obese adults. Studies are needed to understand the barriers associated with fruit and vegetable intake in this population.
