CAMEROON RANKED AMONGST COUNTRIES WITH THE HEALTHIEST DIETS IN THE WORLD


A study published in the Lancet-Global health journal (http://www.thelancet.com/pdfs/journals/langlo/PIIS2214-109X%2814%2970381-X.pdf) shows that Cameroon is amongst the top countries in the world with the healthiest diet. Chad and Mali, two low income African counties, scored best for healthy diets. Scoring lowest for healthy foods were European countries including Belgium and Hungary.   This study assessed the quality of diet in 197 countries, covering almost 4.5 billion adults, 90% of the global population. See map for countries with best (in green) and worst (in red diet) diet.
Before we forget, the study also showed that women eat better than men and older people eat better than the young.
Cameroon is up on this and at Camerpeers we are loving this!!!!!.  
This map of overall dietary patterns, where green shows the healthiest diets and red the least, clearly shows Africa as the healthiest continent
