Dietary Behaviours

Dietary behaviours refer to the patterns of eating that individuals exhibit, encompassing the choices they make regarding food selection, preparation, consumption, and frequency of meals. These behaviours are influenced by a variety of factors, including cultural norms, socioeconomic status, personal preferences, availability of foods, and nutritional knowledge. Dietary behaviours can significantly impact health outcomes, influencing conditions such as obesity, diabetes, cardiovascular diseases, and overall well-being. Understanding dietary behaviours is essential for promoting healthy eating practices and developing effective nutritional interventions.
