The goal of this exploratory study was to analyze the influence of culture on African women's diet considering their role as primary caregivers. The analysis differentiated between Moroccan and Senegalese women and identified the key elements that influence their dietary habits and their health. Using a qualitative methodology, we performed a triangulation of data based on a literature review and a panel of experts, all of which served as the basis for the interview script to conduct 14 semi-structured interviews (n = 7 Moroccan and n = 7 Senegalese). This study reflects the substantial relationship between dietary habits, cultural identity, and health that healthcare providers need to acknowledge. It is important for healthcare practitioners to be culturally competent in order to provide holistic and individualized care.
这项探索性研究的目的是分析文化对非洲女性饮食的影响,同时考虑到她们作为主要照料者的角色。该分析区分了摩洛哥女性和塞内加尔女性,并确定了影响她们饮食习惯和健康的关键因素。我们采用定性研究方法,基于文献综述和专家小组进行了数据三角互证,所有这些都作为访谈脚本的基础,以进行14次半结构化访谈(n = 7名摩洛哥女性和n = 7名塞内加尔女性)。这项研究反映了饮食习惯、文化身份和健康之间的重要关系,医疗保健提供者需要认识到这一点。医疗从业者具备文化能力对于提供全面和个性化的护理非常重要。
