The latest research work is titled “Relationship between food safety knowledge deficiency and health risks in Piura population during food consumption (2018).” The report was made due to the growing statistics of coronary metabolic diseases registered in Peru, and in particular Piura, due to deficient patterns of food consumption. It is for this reason that the understanding of the danger that consumers have for food was examined and the information associated with the possible risk of contracting diseases. Another explanation for this report’s creation is the lack of media reporting on food health, considering that more than fifty percent of the causes of death in Peru are due to diabetes and cardiovascular afflictions.
