Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: Food delivery apps have revolutionized the way people access and consume meals, offering convenience and a vast array of dining choices at the tap of a screen. This study explores the effects and social impact of food delivery services on eating habits and overall health. The research examines how these apps influence dietary choices, portion sizes, and meal frequency, often promoting fast food consumption and sedentary lifestyles. While they provide benefits such as accessibility and time-saving advantages, they also contribute to health concerns like obesity and poor nutrition. Additionally, the study investigates how these platforms affect social interactions, local food businesses, and consumer spending patterns. By analyzing user behavior, health implications, and societal changes, this research aims to provide insights into the long-term impact of food delivery apps on public health and lifestyle trends.
