Dietary risk, one of the major risk factors for the increasing burden of non-communicable diseases, is influenced by household food choices and purchases. A community-based cross-sectional study was conducted in 250 randomly selected households of an urban resettlement colony in Delhi to estimate the proportion of households purchasing different healthier food options during the last purchasing occasion and to identify its key determinants. Purchase of healthier options in staple items like wheat flour with fiber (100%), plant-based oils (97.9%), unpolished pulses (96.2%), and toned milk (94.5%) was high. Affordability and health considerations in food purchases were identified as key determinants.
饮食风险是导致非传染性疾病负担不断增加的主要危险因素之一,受到家庭食物选择和购买的影响。在德里的一个城市移民定居点,对 250 个随机选择的家庭进行了一项基于社区的横断面研究,以估计在最近一次购买时购买不同更健康食物选择的家庭比例,并确定其主要决定因素。在主食如纤维小麦粉(100%)、植物性油(97.9%)、未抛光豆类(96.2%)和调味奶(94.5%)的购买中,更健康选择的比例较高。在食品购买中,可负担性和健康考虑被确定为关键决定因素。
