| Summary: | This article analyzes changes in dietary habits and physical activity in Spain from 2006 to 2017 using three waves of the National Health Survey. It examines the persistence and configuration of social inequalities in the adoption of healthy practices. We estimate separate logistic regression models for each year to identify the social groups most likely to meet health recommendations related to diet and leisure-time physical activity. The results show persistent social inequalities associated with gender, age, educational attainment, and social class. These differences remain especially consistent in fruit and vegetable consumption and physical activity, whereas patterns for meat and fish consumption appear less stable and more sensitive to measurement decisions. Comparisons across waves indicate that social inequalities did not decline after the economic crisis. Instead, they persisted or shifted depending on the behavior analyzed. These findings underscore the need for public health policies that account for social inequalities and promote more equitable access to healthy practices. |
