Abstract:

This thesis incorporates social history and consultative action research to analyse the development of cross-cultural nutrition services for Indigenous communities in the Northern Territory from 1974-2000 and promote the development of stronger partnerships in 1999-2001.The historical development of nutrition services is analysed against current theory and a model of capacity building for health promotion. Nutrition infrastructure and services have developed systematically, incrementally and substantially. Strengths include the development of enduring and successful inter-cultural partnerships

Abstract:

This thesis explores the impact of climate changes on the harvest of traditional foods and characterizes the implication of these changes on the diet of Aboriginal Peoples in northern Canada. Combinations of qualitative and quantitative methods were used to document and estimate the local harvest pattern of key species of traditional food. Overall results between the estimated amount of available food from the harvest and the estimated amount of dietary intake did not agree, however, strong agreements were seen in two species: moose and whitefish. The relationship of harvest data to dietary i

Abstract:

It has been established that diabetes does have an effect and impacts greatly on the life expectancy of Indigenous Australians. A possible explanation is that Indigenous Australians generally have different needs, primarily because of the variation in culture differences. For this reason it is imperative that health officials have an understanding of these additional pre-disposing factors and the associated complications which have resulted as a part of the colonisation process. These factors including diet, nutrition, exercise, obesity and have influenced and resulted, in a change to the way

Abstract:

Globally, the prevalence of Type 2 diabetes is rising. The most affected populations are those that have undergone recent and rapid transition towards a Western lifestyle, characterised by energy-dense diets and physical inactivity.¶ Two major hypotheses have attempted to explain the variation in diabetes prevalence, both between and within populations, beyond the contributions made by adult lifestyle. The thrifty genotype hypothesis proposes that some populations are genetically well adapted to surviving in a subsistence environment, and are predisposed to develop diabetes when the dietary en

Abstract:

This is primarily a study of dietary practices and nutrient intakes in relation to health in an urban Aboriginal community in New South Wales. It examines the assumption that poor diet is one of the major, if not the major, contributing factors in poor Aboriginal health. The data indicate that in the community studied dietary patterns were consistent with those of the wider society. Intakes of nutrients were not always optimal compared with recommended dietary intakes (RDIs) for Australia, but compared to the rest of the Australian population, and different sub-sections within it, they

Abstract:

Introduction: The high prevalence of obesity in Aboriginal Canadian youth is a major public health concern. Although little is known about the diets of children on-reserve, it is hypothesized that high intake of low nutrient dense foods has a negative impact on overall diet quality. Objectives: To describe the dietary quality of First Nation students using a Canadian adaptation of the Healthy Eating Index (HEI-C) and determine the relationships between HEI-C and BMI, intake of non-food group (“other”) foods, game consumption, frequency of eating outside the home and remoteness (latitude, °N)

Abstract:

Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander (hereafter ‘Indigenous’) cultures are among the longest-surviving in the world. There is a significant gap between the health of Indigenous and non-Indigenous Australians, stemming from Australia's history of colonisation. High Body Mass Index (BMI) is a leading contributor to this health gap; Indigenous Australians aged 15 years and over are 20% more likely to be overweight and 60% more likely to be obese than non-Indigenous Australians. Limited cross-sectional data indicate an elevated prevalence of overweight
