| Summary: | The staff at NESR specializes in conducting food- and nutrition-related systematic reviews and evidence syntheses. The NESR staff collaborated with USDA's CNPP Nutrition and Economic Analysis Team (NEAT), who conduct the analyses to develop the USDA Food Plans, to complete a series of rapid reviews and evidence scans to address the following research questions: What is the relationship between income and prices for food items/baskets? What is the relationship between income or Federal Assistance participation/eligibility and following a dietary pattern that aligns with the Dietary Guidelines for Americans, as measured by the Healthy Eating Index (HEI)? What is the relationship between overall diet cost and following a dietary pattern that aligns with the Dietary Guidelines for Americans, as measured by the Healthy Eating Index (HEI)? What is the relationship between income and time spent on food-at-home-related activities? What factors influence the purchase and/or consumption of at-home convenience foods? How are these foods described in the literature?
