“…There are numerous Hispanic immigrants who come to the USA with healthy diets and levels of high physical activity, but there is evidence that through acculturation there is a negative impact on their nutrition and exercise (Ayala, Baquero, & Klinger, 2008). Health care providers have had difficulty conveying the importance of nutrition and physical activity to the Hispanic population (Lopez-Quintero et al, 2009). Researchers have found that if the health information is presented to Hispanic participants in a culturally sensitive manner they will have a higher success rate in their health programs, such as diabetes education programs (Brown, Kouzekanani, Garcia, & Hanis, 2002;Gilmer, Philis-Tsimikas, & Walker, 2005;Gordon, 2004).…”
