Remote Community Food Supply Nutritional Assessment and Advisory Service
Do you live in one of the 1,223 discrete Aboriginal communities in Australia? If so, are you happy with your food supply?
People living in remote areas of Australia - Aboriginal people, teachers, and health professionals - often have limited access to healthy food. In general, the supply of fresh fruit and vegetables are very limited. Consequently people are only able to access and utilise one tenth of their fresh fruit and vegetable requirements.
Given that health-developing and protective nutrients in the form of essential vitamins, minerals, fibre, antioxidants, and other important nutrients is, to a large extent, contained within these foods it's no wonder that people living in remote areas, particularly those living in poverty, suffer from nutrition related preventable health problems such as diabetes, heart disease, kidney disease, lung disease and high blood pressure.
EthiCal Nutrition Services is the only independent provider of comprehensive assessment of your community's food supply and advise for improvement without negatively affecting the profitability of your store.
