What We Do
Cost if often perceived as the main barrier to eating healthier food (Haynes-Maslow, Parsons, Wheeler, Leone 2013). Furthermore, it has been found that lower socio-economic populations consume less fruits and vegetables (Mak et. al 2013). Recently, much attention is being paid to the correlation between unhealthy eating and obesity. According to the Institute of Medicine sugary drinks, fast food and other poor quality food can lead to obesity and other chronic disease and lower-income populations are at higher risk (2012). Making healthy food more affordable could lead to increased consumption and lower risk of chronic disease.
