Increasing attention has been given to the role of retail food environments in shaping dietary behavior and obesity risk. Studies have generally shown an association between living in a neighborhood with or in close proximity to certain types of food outlets and/or the availability of healthy food options and better dietary quality, higher fruit/vegetable intakes, and a lower risk of overweight, even after controlling for individual/family level characteristics. However, research in this area has yielded mixed results, overall. Future research needs to identify consistent approaches for defining and measuring food retail environments.
人们越来越关注零售食品环境在塑造饮食行为和肥胖风险方面的作用。研究表明，居住在某个社区或附近有某些类型的食品店和/或有健康食品选择的地方，与更好的饮食质量、更高的水果/蔬菜摄入量以及较低的超重风险之间存在关联，即使在控制了个人/家庭层面的特征之后也是如此。然而，这一领域的研究总体上得出了不一致的结果。未来的研究需要确定用于定义和衡量食品零售环境的一致方法。
