What is Food Insecurity and Feeding Practices in Brazil about?

This study examines the prevalence of food insecurity (FI) and its association with feeding practices among Brazilian children under 5 years, revealing that 37.5% of these households experience some level of FI. Children aged 6-23 months in severe FI are significantly less likely to meet minimum dietary diversity and more likely to consume no vegetables or fruits. The findings highlight the need for targeted policies to improve food access and dietary quality for low-income families.
