Vending machines, cafeterias, and street vendors are the main source of food in hospitals located in central Mexico. While previous studies in other countries have shown that most of the food offered in these settings is unhealthy, there is almost no information about nutrition environments in hospitals from emerging countries. Thus, the aim of the study was to understand the nutritional characteristics and compliance with the national Front-of-Pack Labeling Regulation (FOPLR) of food in hospitals. Results showed that food sold in and around hospitals is high in calories, sodium, and saturated fats, and did not meet FOPL nutritional recommendations. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
