Exploring the Relationship between Health Consciousness and Organic Food Consumption: A Case Study in District, Faisalabad
Abstract
This study explores the relationship between health consciousness and organic food consumption, focusing on the attitudes and intentions of university students in District Faisalabad, Pakistan. As health concerns and environmental consciousness rise globally, understanding consumer behavior towards organic food has become critical. A quantitative research design was employed, utilizing a structured questionnaire to gather data from 200 students. The findings indicate that health-conscious individuals exhibit more favorable attitudes toward organic food consumption. Additionally, environmental concerns significantly influence purchasing intentions, while social influences and product availability play a secondary role. The study suggests that health and environmental benefits should be emphasized in marketing organic food to effectively target health-conscious consumers.
