Promoting Healthy Food Access and Nutrition in Primary Care: A Systematic Scoping Review of Food Prescription Programs

et al. 2021

Objective To conduct a scoping review to synthesize evidence on food prescription programs. Data Source A systematic search of PubMed, CINAHL, Web of Science, Embase, and the Cochrane Library was conducted using key words related to setting, interventions, and outcomes. Study Inclusion and Exclusion Criteria Publications were eligible if they reported food prescription administered by a health care practitioner (HCP) with the explicit aim of improving healthy food access and consumption, food security (FS), or health. Data Extraction A data charting form was used to extract relevant details on intervention characteristics, study methodology, and key findings. Data Synthesis Study and intervention characteristics were summarized. We undertook a thematic analysis to identify and report on themes. A critical appraisal of study quality was conducted using the Mixed Methods Appraisal Tool (MMAT). Results A total of 6145 abstracts were screened and 23 manuscripts were included in the review. Food prescriptions may improve fruit and vegetable consumption and reduce food insecurity (FI). Evidence for impacts on diet-related health outcomes is limited and mixed. The overall quality of included studies was weak. Addressing barriers such as stigma, transportation, and poor nutrition literacy may increase utilization of food prescriptions. Conclusion Food prescriptions are a promising health care intervention. There is a need for rigorous studies that incorporate larger sample sizes, control groups, and validated assessments of dietary intake, food security, and health.

“…Keďže ide o trh s množstvom sprievodných spoločenských udalostí, možno predpokladať, že priemerný čas strávený na Trnavskom rínku dosahuje vyššie hodnoty ako na typickom pravidelne organizovanom farmárskom trhu (cf. George et al 2016). Závislosť od zóny nákupného spádu sa však neprejavila v prípade analýzy množstva minutých financií.…”

The aim of the paper is to evaluate the consumer's behaviour at the occasional market in Trnava -Trnavský rínek. The paper focuses on the characterization of a typical market visitor as well as on delimitation of the market's trade area. Data was obtained from a questionnaire survey (n = 335). A one-dimensional ANOVA model, chisquare test and Mann-Whitney U test were used to test the hypotheses. Consumers come mainly from the cities and smaller countryside parts within a distance of 60 km. Based on the results of the hypothesis testing, it was confirmed that the time spent at Trnavský rínek depends on the trade areas from which the visitors come. There is no statistically significant difference between the amount of money spent at Trnavský rínek and the trade areas of the visitors' residence. The overall satisfaction with Trnavský rínek does not depend on the trade areas from which the visitors come. The knowledge obtained from this research leads to a more detailed understanding of the consumer's behaviour and can be used to plan alternative places of consumption.

Produce Rx Programs for Diet-Based Chronic Disease Prevention

Background: To explore the ethical and policy implications of produce prescription (Rx) programs, PubMed, Embase, and Scopus databases were searched for peer-reviewed literature on existing Rx programs in February 2018. Methods: A review of the literature identified 19 articles published on produce Rx programs; all were included in the review. Inclusion criteria were interactions between a medical professional and patient in a health care setting where a prescription for the consumption of fruits and vegetables was provided. Programs were further classified by whether patients were recruited based on eligibility criteria such as low socioeconomic status, diet-related condition, and the type of referring physician. An ethical matrix was then used to evaluate well-being, autonomy, and fairness from the perspectives of adult and child patients, patient families, participating local farmers, physicians, and government assistance programs. Results: Patients with low income were subjects of 14 articles; 13 studies identified populations with diet-related health conditions such as diabetes or hypertension. Only 9 studies examined both health conditions and low socioeconomic status. An ethical analysis indicated that despite reducing financial burdens and increasing food choice, Rx programs might have unintended psychosocial consequences on participants with low income. Health care professionals benefit from employing a partnership model of care, building trust, and emotional intelligence. Participating farmers benefit from an enlarged customer base but might experience greater financial burdens. Some produce Rx programs could use existing government assistance programs (ie, Medicaid in medically underserved areas or the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, or SNAP, in food deserts), although disbursement may be cost inefficient and disorganized without policy cohesion at all levels of government.
