Description

Claire Gilbourne, Alan Scarry, Audrey Tierney, and Eibhlís O'Connor reviewed studies on whether time in green or blue spaces changes what adults eat. Green and blue spaces mean parks, woods, lakes, and coasts, long linked to better health. The team searched five databases under standard review rules, with a fresh run in twenty twenty-four.

Only four studies fit, though some were huge, with up to hundreds of thousands of people. Two found no link between green space and diet patterns. The rest also reported activity and weight outcomes. Given so thin a base, the authors urge care and call for work on which features of such spaces shape food choice.
