What Are the Nutritional Challenges in Urban Areas?
Urbanization often leads to dietary changes, which can have both positive and negative effects on children's health. While urban areas may offer greater access to a variety of foods, there is also a higher prevalence of fast food and processed foods, contributing to childhood obesity and related health issues like diabetes and hypertension. Moreover, low-income families in urban settings may struggle with food insecurity, affecting children's growth and development.
