Abstract:

Objective: identify the methods used to assess household food availability in studies on food and nutritional security and to discuss its methodological aspects. Methods: Systematic review elaborated according to the PRISMA method. We searched at PubMed; Scielo and Lilacs databases, and studies that used methods of assessing the availability of food at home were included. Results: In the end, 19 papers composed the review. Food availability was predominantly assessed for a seven days period anda single data measurement. Other variables were also observed in the studies, such as socio-demographic data and expenditure on food. Among the limitations to assess the food availability at home, we can highlight the difficulty in measuring the food distribution among family members and the lack of information on the variability of this availability. Such assessment can be improved by investigating the strengths and weaknesses of the instruments for greater detail and accuracy of the information. Conclusions: We recommend the development and validation of specific instruments capable of effectively measure the food availability at the household level.
