Dietary diversity amongst adults who buy at shopping malls in the Nelson Mandela Bay areaKeywords: The aim of this study was to determine the level of dietary diversity and associated factors among adults in the Nelson Mandela Bay area. A convenience, stratified sample of 480 adult participants was used in a survey to determine the level of dietary diversity and identify contributing factors. Abstract: Dietary diversity is recognized as vital for health. The level of dietary diversity and contributing factors could possibly be used as proxy indicators for food insecurity and nutritional quality, as well as to highlight gaps in nutrition interventions, policies and programmes, which aim at combating over- and under-nutrition.
