Fruits and vegetables are rich in vitamins and minerals whose functions are important and almost irreplaceable. Several meta-analyses have shown that adequate fruit and vegetable consumption reduces the risk of several non-communicable diseases. According to the recommendations, in 2014, only 2.9% of the Indonesian people consumed enough fruits and vegetables. This literature review aims are to discuss the My Plate (Isi Piringku) campaign to increase local fruit and vegetable consumption. This research method is a literature study obtained from Google Scholar and articles from the mass media using inclusion and exclusion criteria. The keywords used in this literature search included:"non-communicable diseases, consumption of vegetables and fruit, My Plate program, Guidelines for Balanced Nutrition". The low consumption of vegetables and fruit risks increasing the prevalence of non-communicable diseases in Indonesia, while sufficient consumption (400 grams/person/day) can prevent the risk of non-communicable diseases. The vegetables and fruit consumption in Indonesia is still under the recommended amount. My Plate campaign is expected to increase vegetables and fruits consumption in society. Strategies are needed to increase the consumption of vegetables and fruits, including using school-based intervention as entry points for changes in community knowledge, attitudes, and practices regarding balanced nutrition.
