Health Canada has developed a series of research tools. These tools assess the extent a group of individuals are following Canada’s food guide:
- Healthy Eating Food Index
- Canadian Food Intake Screener
- Canadian Eating Practices Screener
This page provides detailed information for the screeners. For an overview of the tools, please consult the document “ Canada’s food guide research tools: description, use, evaluation”.
