Common barriers to healthy eating include a lack of time, access to nutritious foods, and high costs associated with healthy options. Busy lifestyles can lead to reliance on convenient but unhealthy food choices. Additionally, limited access to fresh produce, particularly in food deserts, restricts the ability to maintain a healthy diet. Financial constraints can make it difficult to prioritize organic or whole foods. Furthermore, social influences and habits can deter individuals, emphasizing the importance of addressing these barriers to promote healthy eating.
