A recent survey says Canadians don't have a balanced diet.

According to Dietitian Karen Graham the Central Regional Health Authority has the same problem even though she believes, most people know they should eat better.

She adds the most astonishing fact in the survey was the increase of the obesity rate.

The rate in adolescents has increased 300%. Graham thinks the problem is people are finding quicker options than milk products or fruits and vegetables.
