First, i think you must determine the most risk factor for health problem especially in Hungary itself. This link may useful for you: http://www.healthdata.org/sites/default/files/files/country_profiles/GBD/ihme_gbd_country_report_hungary.pdf. (you can open page 3)

According to the risk factor data on page 3, the most in 2010 is "dietary risks" thats mean the most of Hungarian health problem caused by bad dietary hygiene. From that statistics we can use one of many scales about the food and beverages which has a relation with health issue in Hungary. Please remember, if that is not only about the kind of food and beverages but also the dietary behavior of Hungarian too.

Hope this answer is useful for you,

Regards.

You may look for a validated scale developed by Gould (1990). 

Gould SJ (1990) Health consciousness and health behavior: the application of a new health consciousness scale. American journal of preventive medicine, Department of Marketing, Rutgers, State University of New Jersey, New Brunswick 08903. 6(4): 228–237.

Here are some more articles that you may use to modify/adapt health consciousness scale.

Hope they help.

How can one contact you concerning partnering you in the research especially in Africa?

Hong has reviewed the scales that measure the level of health consciousness. I recommend his work: Hong, H. (2009, March). Scale development for measuring health consciousness: Re-conceptualization. In 12th Annual International Public Relations Research Conference, Holiday Inn University of Miami Coral Gables, Florida.
