Example sentences:
These are also the groups most likely to live in food deserts, and researchers have established a strong correlation between food insecurity and increased diabetes rates. One study of Chicago neighborhoods found the death rate from diabetes in food deserts to be twice that of areas offering access to grocery stores, [14] while another conducted in California found that adults ages 50 and over from black and brown communities had double the diabetes rate of whites from the same age demographic. (Food Is Power)
Educating those in the community or tract of the food desert can help make changes, such as growing their own food and working with local convenience stores to sell healthier food options. Public awareness of food deserts can lead to healthy discourse and may even lead to ideas about how to end food deserts in America once and for all. (Gardening Know-how)
The key to getting food into food deserts is to make it as easy as possible for people to access fresh, healthy food. (Shareable)

Koliko sam razumjela da su u pitanju ili dijelovi grada i manja mjesta gdje nema za nabaviti zdravi hrane ili je ima vrlo malo. Ne znam da li kod nas ima baš takav termin ali možda nekome pomogne da dođe do boljeg rješenja
Example sentences:
