Food Insecurity Perception of the Neighborhood Food Environment and Dietary Quality Among Mexican Immigrant Women

摘要

Migration to the US has been associated with food insecurity and detrimental changes in diet quality. How these changes affect women in context of their neighborhood food environment has not been thoroughly explored. This study aimed to assess if food insecurity is associated with diet quality and to explore if perceived food availability moderates this purported association in a sample of Mexican immigrant women.
