Promoting sustainable diets: Overcoming challenges to transform consumer behaviors Diet Education Food Language Meat Nutrition Research TopDown NutrReviews UCC QUBelfast
By Bhavana KunkalikarApr 10 2023Reviewed by Benedette Cuffari, M.Sc. In a recent study published in the journal Nutrition Reviews, researchers describe the views and actions of consumers toward sustainable diets.
To advance toward more sustainable diets, multisectoral initiatives and top-down policy measures will be necessary. These strategies are likely to place a major emphasis on promoting and supporting customer attitudes and behaviors that are more compatible with sustainable eating habits. A total of 1,006 papers were found in the original scan, 322 of which had pertinent titles and keywords. Using Rayyan software, two researchers first screened 256 papers for eligibility and removed duplicates to produce 154 articles. A final screening round eventually led to 54 eligible papers.
Results Most of the studies used quantitative techniques, were conducted in European nations, and were released from January 2016 to April 2021. Several sociodemographic factors have an impact on consumers' understanding, views, and actions. In fact, consumers' propensity to engage in more environmentally friendly eating habits is influenced by their sex, schooling, and salary levels.
Consumers use the word "sustainable diet" to refer to a variety of diets that are generally higher in quality, include a healthy, balanced diet, and include natural, fresh, organic, seasonal, and local plant-based whole foods. Although environmental protection is a feature of sustainable diets, health-related reasons and worries are more prominent than other factors.
