Data were collected using a self-made questionnaire and FFQ. Obtained data analyzed by SPSS16 software in two categories of descriptive and inferential statistics. Results: Results indicated that the scores of HBM structures were low. Also Mean consumption of fruits in housewives was 130/24±57/72 and Mean consumption of vegetables in housewives was 220/73±112/85. There was a significant relation between all the HBM structures and consumption of fruit and vegetables (p<0.001).
