AB The goal of this exploratory study was to analyze the influence of culture on Africanwomen’s diet considering their role as primary caregivers. The analysis differentiated betweenMoroccan and Senegalese women and identified the key elements that influence their dietary habitsand their health. Using a qualitative methodology, we performed a triangulation of data based on aliterature review and a panel of experts, all of which served as the basis for the interview script toconduct 14 semi-structured interviews (n = 7 Moroccan and n = 7 Senegalese). This study reflects thesubstantial relationship between dietary habits, cultural identity, and health that healthcare providersneed to acknowledge. It is important for healthcare practitioners to be culturally competent in orderto provide holistic and individualized care
