Examining the associations between the food environment and dietary intake in British Columbia: a cross-sectional study
The findings suggest limited neighbourhood access to retail food outlets across urban areas in BC. Participants living in neighbourhoods with greater density of fast-food restaurants were less likely to consume <u>></u>5 servings of FV per day. Further studies are needed to better understand the null findings and additional factors that may be associated with dietary intake.
