Article Synopsis
- This study developed a Sustainable Diet Index (SDI) to assess the sustainability of diets among adults in Ghana and Ghanaian migrants in Europe, focusing on factors like health, climate impact, cultural values, and cost.
- Using data from 3,169 participants aged 25-70, the SDI ranged from 0 to 16 and utilized various dietary metrics, showing an overall mean SDI of 8.0.
- Results indicated that higher SDI scores were linked to older age, female gender, non-smoking, and alcohol abstinence, with the highest SDI found in London (9.1), suggesting that living in Europe generally leads to more sustainable dietary practices compared to rural Ghana.
