The impact of a household-level food retail environment health quality measure on diet quality
Geographic Boundary Definitions and the Robustness of Common Food Retail Environment Measures
Understanding the relationship between the retail food environment and individual and community health is important for addressing questions about diet-related disease and food security. A wide range of methodological approaches have been used to understand this complex relationship, but the studies have resulted in a lack of consensus on how and whether the food retail environment influences health outcomes and food choice. Inconsistency in meas…
Food deserts and diet-related health outcomes of the elderly
How do food retail choices vary within and between food retail environments
A Comprehensive Life Cycle Assessment of Greenhouse Gas Emissions from U.S. Household Food Choices
Caloric Beverage Intake Among Adult Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program Participants
Objectives. We compared sugar-sweetened beverage (SSB), alcohol, and other caloric beverage (juice and milk) consumption of Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) participants with that of low-income nonparticipants. Methods.

W…

For both poverty groups, use of other welfare programs, especially Temporary Assistance for Needy Families, is found to be an important determ…
