Dietary access refers to the ability of individuals or communities to obtain and consume a variety of nutritious foods. This concept encompasses factors such as availability, affordability, and accessibility of food sources, which can significantly impact overall health and well-being. Barriers to dietary access can include economic challenges, transportation issues, and limited availability of fresh produce in certain areas, often referred to as food deserts. Improving dietary access is essential for promoting healthier eating habits and reducing diet-related diseases in populations.
