How Time Affects Food Choices

Content: If affordable, healthy food is not available nearby, it is more likely that people will purchase processed foods, fast food or other cheaper options simply to end the hunger they feel without getting the nutrients the body actually needs. The culture and even family that surrounds someone is an economic influence, as well. If there is a culture of eating fast food among family members and in an entire neighborhood because that is what is historically easy to access, then that behavior is more likely to continue. How Time Affects Food Choices
Those who live a busy lifestyle may also find themselves making convenient food selections, which can lead to eating fast, processed foods. Those who plan their meals, rather than graze throughout the day as they work tend to be healthier rather than overweight. Meal planning and preparing foods with proper nutrition is key to ensuring a healthy lifestyle despite a tight schedule. 00:00
