Maintain Nutritious Eating

You’re not alone if you’re wondering how to maintain nutritious eating while easing back into your pre-pandemic life. There are many factors to consider, including fear of food shortages, increased prices of energy-dense foods, and changes to shopping habits due to the pandemic’s infection control practices. Fortunately, there are a few simple tips that you can follow.

Fear of food shortages

During the lockdown, many parents described entering panic mode. They worried about possible food shortages and starvation and began stocking up on energy-dense, long-lasting foods. One parent noted that surviving was their priority. In general, discussions around food evoked feelings of panic and anxiety.

The global outbreak of the coronavirus COVID-19 is upending the lives of families worldwide. Many childcare centers and schools are closed, and many parents scramble to juggle competing priorities. It is becoming a daily struggle for parents to figure out “what’s for dinner?” Many items are unavailable or are very expensive due to panic buying. Disruptions in food supply systems and unemployment can make it difficult to find even the most basic foods.

As a result, food prices have skyrocketed. Food shortages and higher fees have left many families struggling to make ends meet. This has heightened concerns among particularly vulnerable women. Knowing how to keep healthy, nutritious eating while easing back into pre-pandemic life is essential.

Those who are in the position to help hungry people must make sure they can eat enough to survive. A lack of food may cause many to turn to food pantries. But food pantries are not the only place to turn if there is a food shortage.

Increased prices of energy-dense foods

While the recent pandemic crisis has led to an increased demand for energy-dense foods and a general increase in food prices, the impact of such gains is not universal. It varies across countries based on the average real income growth rate and the inflation shocks faced by the top and bottom 40% of the income distribution. The study finds that in the most extreme case, the bottom 40% faces inflation three percentage points higher than the top 60%. Similarly, the bottom 40% of the population in 36 countries in Sub-Saharan Africa faces food inflation twice as high as that of non-food goods.

Changing shopping habits due to pandemic-related infection control practices

A novel coronavirus pandemic has affected many aspects of life worldwide. Understanding the general public’s reactions is essential for effective risk communication, outbreak control, and prevention. COVID-19 cases have impacted the buying habits and attitudes of many people. During the COVID-19 pandemic, people ordered more groceries online than usual, reduced discretionary spending, and shifted their spending to locally produced goods. The situation has also increased the demand for digital technologies.
