Understanding Food Invesecity as a Systemic Driver of Diabetes Disparies
Food insecurity - definied d 'e USDA as limited or uncertain accessions to o consultate food due e te lack of money or tell resources - conseins a persistent public health emergency in thee United States. In 2022, an estimated 12.8% of U.S. S. households experimenced food insecurity, faftiting 17 million households.
