Meningkatnya jumlah penyakit kronik yang berhubungan dengan gizi pangan seperti penyakit jantung koroner, kegemukan dan kanker merupakan masalah kesehatan yang utama bukan hanya di Negara barat saja melainkan juga terjadi di negara berkembang seperti Asia. Untuk mengatasi masalah ini, perlu dikembangkan sistem pencegahan yang dapat dilakukan oleh setiap individu didalam masyarakat. Pendidikan dan penyuluhan kepada masyarakat terhadap pentingnya tindakan preventif seperti melalui “social marketing programs” yang digalakkan baik oleh pemerintah atau institusi kesehatan lainnya, sangatlah penting. Didalam social marketing, promosi tentang pencegahan semestinya dilakukan dengan terlebih dahulu mengetahui dan mengenal segala macam bentuk kebutuhan dasar, pengetahuan, sikap, kepercayaan dan faktor psikologi lainnya dari masyarakat. Studi ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui peran pengetahuan nutrisi, sikap dan motivasi masyarakat Indonesia (Jawa) terhadap upaya pencegahan penyakit kronik. Salah satu hasil utama dari penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa pengetahuan dasar konsumen akan mempengaruhi motivasi secara tidak langsung melalui pembentukan sikap konsumen.
