What are some things that can get in the way of maintaining a healthy diet?
I can think of a few that I have experienced and observed
Limited finances: i have seen people trying to build a healthy diet on $3 a day in the U.S.
Limited space/equipment for cooking: for example, i have seen college students struggling because they are stuck with the college cafeteria food and maybe only a mini-fridge, if even that, in their dorm room
Difficulty dedicating not only time but the mental effort to prepare healthy foods (because the cleaning up is a drain as well, especially if you can't leave it for later because of living situation/roommates etc)
Special diets (gluten free is just one example) can make getting nutrients more difficult. And this is definitely compounded when you are trying to follow more than one restriction at a time
Just the temptation of prioritizing taste and convenience when there is so much else to worry about in life!
Have you experienced any of these or have any other ideas?
I also see that more than one of these challenges are present at the same time, and magnify each other i.e. no kitchen, no money, no time
