A Pro-Health Food Selection Model for Bulawayo High-density suburbs

The purpose of this study was to develop a food selection model for gatekeepers of Bulawayo High-density Suburbs in Zimbabwe, which constituted the population. Two models were found based on findings of this research, which were not health-oriented. There was a significant relationship between gatekeepers' food selection and education, income, family size, and culture: values = 0.006; 0.025; 0.028; 0.001 respectively. Hypotheses one to four were rejected at = 0.05 and a pro-health food selection model was developed.
