Abstract:

<p> Underserved populations suffer the highest rates of overweight and obesity. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, African Americans have the highest obesity rates followed by Latinos (47.8% and 42.5% respectively). In the City of Long Beach, 40.9% of adults are overweight and 24.6% are considered obese. Overweight and obesity are major risk factors that contribute to chronic diseases. In an effort to help curtail these unhealthy trends, The Beach Community Wellness Program (BCWP) was created. During the second year of the program’s implementation, the author re

Abstract:

<p> Over one-third (78.6 millions) of U.S. adults are obese. Weight management in the typical health care practice is inadequate with fewer than half of primary care physicians consistently providing guidance on diet, physical activity, or weight control. Because 60 percent of Americans get their health insurance through their jobs, employers often bear the bulk of the obesity costs, but are also well-positioned to implement effective lifestyle interventions. The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (PPACA) of 2010 included provisions for the incentives and penalties employers and heal

Abstract:

Although physical fitness is regarded as a determinant of combat readiness, more than two-thirds of American military personnel are considered overweight or obese. While the U.S. Army recognizes nutrition as a priority with the development of the Performance Triad, nutrition education in the U.S. Navy remains retroactive, targeting only weight management and neglecting the role of nutrition in performance enhancement. There is limited data regarding the nutrition knowledge of the U.S. Navy population, a key factor in designing nutrition-focused programs, partially due to the lack of an appropr

Unfortunately, our understanding of the nutritional requirements of amphibians in captivity is currently limited. There have been anecdotal reports that captive bred amphibians have duller skin colouration than wild members of the same species. Many amphibians use carotenoid pigments in skin colouration. Carotenoids are yellow-red pigments synthesised by photosynthetic tissues, however vertebrates cannot synthesise them de novo and rely entirely on dietary sources. Reduced co

The reality of daily life for children is excessive calorie consumption, imbalances in macronutrient intake and missed opportunities for activity are being driven by the physical and social environment.

Abstract:

Introduction : Les maladies cardiovasculaires représentent la première cause de mortalité dans le monde et sont, pour la plupart, causées par la formation de plaques athérogènes. Ces dernières apparaissent dès l'adolescence et leur croissance dépend de nombreux facteurs de risque non modifiables (âge, genre) et modifiables (profil lipidique, pression artérielle, glycémie, tabagisme, indice de masse corporelle). La nutrition, l'activité physique et la condition physique sont des éléments complexes ayant démontré leur impact significatif, dans le cadre d'études majoritairement transversales, sur

Abstract:

Head stabilisation during gait related tasks is thought to be fundamental to whole body stability, but this has received little attention in the older population. There is a need to examine any age related changes in neuromechanical mechanisms underpinning head stabilisation that may challenge the control of head stability, and consequently whole body stability. The present Thesis examined the mechanisms contributing to head stabilisation, and whole body stability during two gait tasks, steady state gait and gait initiation in young and older females, with the overall aim of contributing to ne

Abstract:

Cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of death in the United States; firefighters are at a greater risk for both the disease and death. Their exposure to stress, toxic fumes and smoke, unhealthy eating habits, excessive weight, and low levels of physical activity are all contributing risk factors to this disease. The purpose of this quantitative study was to determine the effectiveness of a multi-faceted program of exercise and nutritional counseling to decrease body fat composition and increase fitness levels nine months after initial implementation among a sample of 202 firefighters.

Abstract:

Eye movements are used day-to-day to acquire visual information. Vision is also used for postural control. There are growing indications eye movements can affect postural control. However, this has not been investigated in older adults, which is surprising given the high incidence of falls in older populations. The present thesis aims to address this. The first experimental chapter explores the effects of eye movements on balance during standing in young and older adults. The findings show decreased stability during smooth pursuits, whereas saccades maintained stability to that when fixating a

Abstract:

<p>Chronic diseases pose public health concerns globally with an increasing trend in developing countries. The development of interventions to minimize or prevent the burden associated with chronic diseases has therefore become a necessity. In 2002 the School of Public Health of the University of the Western Cape developed a health club intervention in Khayelitsha. This intervention focused on promoting healthy lifestyles, particularly improved diet and physical activity. The objectives of this study was to determine whether members were more physically active than non-members and to determine

Abstract:

Despite improvements in treatment regimens over the past few decades patients living with cystic fibrosis (CF) continue to present with malnutrition due to energy imbalance. A major factor effecting energy balance in this disease is an increased energy expenditure, the causes of which remain contentious. At rest patients with CF expend between 1 O and 20% more calories than healthy individuals however during activity energy expenditure has not been thoroughly investigated. Therefore the papers described within this dissertation provide insight relating to the energy costs of standard physical

Le Grand hamster (Cricetus cricetus), l’un des mammifères les plus menacés d’Europe, est en voie d’extinction en France. Toutefois, nous manquons d’information sur les causes de son déclin et sur comment améliorer sa conservation. Durant ma thèse, je me suis intéressée à l’effet des cultures sur la reproduction du hamster. Les principaux résultats indiquent qu’une consommation importante de maïs conduit à une diminution drastique du succès reproducteur en raison d’une carence en vitamine B3. Une autre étude démontre que des associations de cultures (blé-soja ou maïs-tournesol) sont favorables

Abstract:

Background: everal studies mean that individuals accustomed to running barefoot and habitually barefoot individuals choose a fore foot or mid foot strike rather than a rear foot strike when running. This is partly to do with the proprioceptive feedback given from the soles of the feet. The common denominator of the barefoot runner and the Muay Thai fighter would be this proprioceptive feedback due to general bare foot training. A contributing factor to a non heal strike pattern could perhaps also be found in the sport specific movement pattern of Muay Thai where the athlete is trained to execu
