Description:Objective:
To evaluate the associations of supermarket and fast food outlet accessibility and availability with dietary intake among youth with diabetes.
Design:
Individual’s residential location and dietary intake was obtained from the SEARCH for Diabetes in Youth study. Food outlets data obtained from the South Carolina Department of Health and Environmental Control and InfoUSA were merged based on names and addresses of the outlets. The comprehensive data was then used to construct accessibility and availability measures for each participant.
Setting:
State of South Carolina.
Participants:
359 youths with diabetes (10 years and above) from the SEARCH study.
Phenomena of Interest:
Supermarket and fast food outlet accessibility and availability; dietary intake represented by Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension (DASH) score.
Analysis:
Generalized estimating equations analyses.
Results:
Increased availability and accessibility of supermarkets was significantly associated with higher DASH score, even after adjusting for individual-level correlates, urbanicity and fast food outlet accessibility or availability. Fast food accessibility, however, was only associated with specific food groups (meat, sweets and low-fat dairy intake), not with the DASH score.
Conclusions and Implications:
Efforts to promote environments conducive to healthy eating may significantly improve the overall dietary intake and reduce diet-related health complications among youth with diabetes.
