How expensive is a healthy diet in Europe? Using Linear Programming as a standardised method for calculating European Food Reference Budgets
Objective: According to the principles of the European Pillar of Social Rights, everyone should be entitled to an adequate minimum income sufficient for a healthy diet. Studies show that food insecurity remains a concern in Europe, highlighting the need to determine budgets for adequate nutrition, known as Food Reference Budgets. Previous approaches, based on expert-designed food baskets or focus group discussions, are often limited by their norm…
Additional costs of lactose-reduced diets: Lactose-free dairy product substitutes are a cost-effective alternative for people with lactose intolerance
Objective: People with lactose intolerance have to limit their consumption of lactose-containing dairy products which are a main source of Ca. In particular, for low-income people it is of interest which alternative diet form rich in Ca leads to the lowest additional costs. This study aims to calculate the additional costs of lactose-reduced diets and to show which of different options represent the most cost-effective alternative within a lactos…
Convenience-based food purchase patterns: Identification and associations with dietary quality, sociodemographic factors and attitudes
Objective The present study aimed to derive food purchase patterns considering the convenience level of foods. Associations between identified patterns and dietary quality were analysed, as well as household characteristics associated with the dietary patterns. Design A Convenience Food Classification Scheme (CFCS) was developed. After classifying basic food groups into the CFCS, the formed groups were used to apply a factor analysis to identify …
Determinants of diet quality
Background: An unbalanced diet is a main risk factor for several chronic diseases. This paper identifies groups of individuals with an unbalanced diet based on the consumption of nutrients. A characterisation of the groups may help to focus efforts aimed at improving the dietary behaviour of the population. Methods: Using nutritional data of 1763 men and 2267 women participating in the German Nutrition Survey of 1998, we constructed two indices f…
