Low income families are primarily working families with income less than twice the federal poverty level.

From the survey, it was found that 54% of samples consume only 2 meals/day, 71% of them skip meals weekly twice, 47% don't consume chapatti, 53% of them consumed fruits occasionally, 54% don't consume milk and its products, 98% of them consume fleshy foods occasionally, 90% don't consume dry fruits, 75% of them don't consume junk food, 98% consume tea before meals(early morning) which make them to skip breakfast, 39% of them smoke small beedis and 64% of subjects consume paan/supari; 20% of them have history of hypertension, diabetes mellitus etc while rest 80% developed de-novo health issues like obesity( due to high rice consumption), micronutrient deficiencies etc. Among the nutrients, energy, proteins, fat and calcium intake were less compared to RDA. From the survey it was concluded that majority of the low-income families consume more rice, skip meals due to high tea consumption and consume very less fruits, chapatti, dry fruits, fleshy foods. Lastly participants were educated regarding healthy eating habits and were encouraged to avoid excess rice and tea consumption. They were recommended to include cheap and easily available foods like green, soybean, rajma, seasonal fruits and vegetables, jaggery, buttermilk etc.
