Abstract:

The objective was to spatially analyze the distribution of food acquisition establishments for immediate consumption around the Health Academy Program (PAS) in Belo Horizonte, Minas Gerais, Brazil, according to the Municipal Human Development Index (IDH-M). This is an ecological study having the PAS as the units of analysis. Establishments for the acquisition of food for immediate consumption, contained within buffer with a radius of 900 metersthe 77 units of the PAS in operation, were evaluated. Address and type of establishment data were obtaineda public list and verified in a virtual audit. Thematic Kernel maps was used. 3,050 establishments were identified around the PAS units. Higher densities were observed around units located in the Center-South region of the city and in areas with high and very high IDH-M. There was a high density of commercial establishments selling food for immediate consumption around the PAS units, especially in the wealthier areas of the city. These results are useful to support the planning of actions aimed at strengthening the PAS as a promoter of healthy eating environments. Furthermore, it reinforces the need for equitable public policies for supply and regulation, aiming to promote access to adequate and healthy food for all.
