Exploratory study examines barriers and facilitators of the Eatwell Guide among university students, indicating a need for better public health strategies.

Key Points

Participants perceived significant barriers to using the eatwell guide, including personal and environmental factors, which affect healthy eating choices.
The thematic analysis revealed four key themes: healthy eating perception, obstacles, enablers, and differences between public health nutrition and other students.
Convenience sampling was used with 12 university students in London, divided into two groups for semi-structured focus group interviews for deeper insights.
Findings highlight a gap in understanding the role of the eatwell guide, pushing for tailored interventions to improve food environments for students.
