In Canada, little is known about the dietary beliefs and practices of the Asian Indian population which is among the top three ethnic groups in Toronto, Ontario. The nutritional health needs and disease risks of the Asian Indian population are different and often not well understood by western health care providers. Understanding the complex interaction of factors which influence the eating practices of this group is necessary to plan effective nutritional and health promotion programs for Asian Indian population. The purpose of this study was to describe the dietary practices of Punjabi immigrant older women who are living in Ontario, Canada, and how cultural knowledge, norms and beliefs, and practices influence their eating behavior.
