Sustainable and healthy diet index (SHDI) unveils regional differences in Europe and Northern Africa: findings from the SysOrg study
Some regions, such as Copenhagen, Kenitra, and Cilento, show beneficial eating patterns, particularly high legume intake. However, meat remains overconsumed in most CSTs. Our study highlights the need for further research to promote cultural acceptance of healthier and more sustainable dietary habits, such as increasing vegetable consumption and reducing meat intake.
