Cultural Factors. Preventing physical inactivity (PA) and poor diet quality is highly important as an active life style and a balanced diet have been associated with higher quality of life, increased life expectancy and lower risk of developing illnesses such as cardiovascular diseases and type 2 diabetes [226]. Therefore, PA and diet are the two target behaviours for the PRECIOUS system. Food patterns and food habits vary between the European countries, although there are some similarities, including a high intake of red meat, dairy and processed food. Culture is 4 xxxx://xxx.xxxxxxxx.xxx/statistics/266587/percentage-of-internet-users-by-age-groups-in-the-us/ 5 xxxx://xxx.xxxxxxxx.xxx/statistics/272191/distribution-of-tablet-computer-user-in-the-united-kingdom-uk-by-age/ defined as the unique set of shared values, attitudes, beliefs and practices of a group, which affect the individual behaviours (diet and PA). The influence of cultural factors is reflected in different national food guidelines across Europe. PRECIOUS won’t measure the cultural values and attitudes; however, the group practices are important and have to be considered when designing the system. At a general level, the system should increase the fruit, vegetable and fibre intake and decrease fat, sugar and salt consumption. Culture influences for instance the content of the three most important meals. Breakfast, lunch and dinner vary across the European countries, and in some cases from region to region and province to province. Although to some extent food habits are determined by the location of the country (food accessibility, prices), cultural factors and practices play a significant role. For example, regardless of the location, there are cultures (social norms, habits) that promote or encourage sweeter breakfasts, whereas other cultures promote a breakfast with salty items. Lunch is the most important meal across many cultures; however, there are again some differences with regard to the food intake (consumption) and time. Although the content of the meal is significantly affected by the location, the availability of the products and the prices, the timing is more culturally determined. In this regard, southern Europeans consume more fruits and vegetables (availability, price) and have lunch and dinner much later than northern Europeans. In some cultures the meal is a social event and culture can also influence portions and quantity. In the same way that culture can influence the eating habits, cultura...
