Food insecurity rose over the past 20 years for U.S. families including older adults—particularly Black, Hispanic, and low-income families.
Food insecurity is a growing concern on university campuses, and Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health is no exception.
With the end of pandemic-era federal support that provided free school breakfasts and lunches for all, experts worry that kids who continue to need free meals will face increasing stigma.
People may be less likely to choose red meat items from menus that include labeling about foods’ climate impact.
Cindy Leung, assistant professor of public health nutrition at Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health, discusses a recent paper she co-authored linking food insecurity and food addiction, as well as her other research efforts.
