The food pharmacy is an emerging program model designed to increase the access to and consumption of healthful foods, particularly fruits and vegetables. Existing research on the efficacy of the food pharmacy model shows that these programs have been effective in improving patient understanding of nutrition and removing barriers to healthy eating, and in turn may have a significant impact on diet-related health outcomes. However, efforts to date aiming to evaluate program effectiveness have been small and lack rigorous research methods. More research is needed to adequately assess the longitudinal effects of food pharmacy programs on healthful food intake and diet-related health outcomes. In this review, we outline the strengths and limitations of previous programs and explore possible options to improve the scalability and sustainability of food pharmacy programs.
食品药房是一种新兴的项目模式，旨在增加健康食品，特别是水果和蔬菜的获取和消费。现有关于食品药房模式效果的研究表明，这些项目在提高患者对营养的理解和消除健康饮食障碍方面很有效，进而可能对与饮食相关的健康结果产生重大影响。然而，迄今为止旨在评估项目效果的努力规模较小，且缺乏严谨的研究方法。需要更多研究来充分评估食品药房项目对健康食品摄入量和与饮食相关的健康结果的长期影响。在本综述中，我们概述了以往项目的优势和局限性，并探索提高食品药房项目可扩展性和可持续性的可能选择。
