What influences our food choices?
The factors that influence what teenagers eat are divided into three groups, personal, interpersonal
and societal influences. Personal influences are things you do that influence your own food choices,
eg not making lunch for school. Interpersonal influences are the places, things and people involved in
your life that influence what you eat. Societal Influences are what influence what we eat when in the
wider community such as advertisements, brands ect. There are some simple classification models that
can help us get more educated on what we should eat such as the healthy heart, healthy eating for
young people, nutrition for life and more.
