Abstract:

Background: Undernutrition is a global public health challenge with life-long consequences. For a child chronically undernourished within the first 1000 days of its life, the consequences include lower school attainment, shorter adult height, reduced adult income and national economic productivity. Investing in preventing child undernutrition has both immediate and later life benefits for children and society. To prevent child undernutrition, promote optimal growth and development, nutrition interventions should target the 1000-days window of opportunity. Aim and objectives: This thesis aimed

Abstract:

The present study investigated food acceptance/ingestional neophobia as a function of distal and proximal sources of stimulus novelty in human infants of two ages and evaluated the utility of the two-stage model of ingestion (e.g., Garcia, Hankins, & Rusiniak, 1974) in understanding the role of novel cues in food acceptance. Thirty-two infants (6- to 12-months-of-age) and 32 toddlers (13- to 24-months-of-age) received a familiar or a novel food from a familiar or a novel presenter during lunchtime at a day care center. The measures of performance were latency to the first and second bites, per

Background Egg allergy is an IgE-mediated food allergy affecting 10% of Australian infants. Two Australian early egg introduction trials were conducted – Beating Egg Allergy Trial (BEAT) and Start Time of Egg Protein to Prevent Egg Allergy (STEP). Both studies showed significant induction of egg-specific IgG4 that was associated with early egg consumption. IgG4 is associated with tolerance induction. However, the mechanisms of tolerance acquisition are still poorly understood but may involve regulatory T and B cells. Aims To examine the antigen‑specific and non‑specific immune cell su

Although the Special Supplemental Food Program for Women, Infants and Children (WIC) and the Commodity Supplemental Food Program (CSFP) have operated for years, little is known about utilization of program foods by participants. Using ethnographic interviews, this study examined food use, factors affecting use, and satisfaction among WIC and CSFP clients. WIC foods were consumed by most participants, but frequently not in the total amount. Four of seven WIC foods were found to be substitutions for foods previously consumed. CSFP foods were consumed less frequently, and in smaller amounts, than

Abstract:

The prevalence of childhood obesity is escalating rapidly and it considered to be a major public health problem. Diet is a recognised precursor of fatness, and current evidence supports the premise that in Westernised countries, the dietary intakes of children are likely to be important in obesity genesis. However, we have a relatively poor understanding of the environments in which a childs eating is learnt and maintained. Much of the existing work in this area is based on small-scale or experimental studies, or has been derived from homogeneous populations within the USA. Despite these

Lack of accessibility to healthy foods is a factor associated with the increase in obesity, diabetes, and other negative health consequences. While programs such as WIC (Women, Infants, and Children) provide supplemental nutritional access to healthy foods, few organic food items are included in the WIC authorized food list. Government programs and policy makers that provide to the most vulnerable populations are concerned about equal availability of healthy foods. The purpose of this study was to compare variability and cost of organic food items in 24 large chain grocery stores located in hi

During weaning the developing gut immune system is exposed to an increasing variety of antigens from both foods and gut microbiota.

Abstract:

The health benefits of breastfeeding exceed well beyond the first few years of an infant's life. Breast milk is often referred to as liquid gold because of its extensive protective properties that promote child growth and development. Unfortunately, African American women have the lowest breastfeeding rates compared to any other racial group. Given that African American children are disproportionately affected by the current obesity epidemic in the United States, there may be a link between a mother's preference to breastfeed her infant and her influence over her child's eating behaviors and p

Les micotoxines són metabòlits fúngics secundaris que representen un risc important per a la salut pública a causa de la seva freqüent incidència en aliments i pinsos, sent els cereals utilitzats en l'elaboració d'aquests els principals productes que es contaminen. El present treball estudia la transferència de les micotoxines de Fusarium durant el procés de producció de dos aliments d'un alt consum, encara que destinat a diferents grups de la població: la cervesa, la beguda alcohòlica més consumida a nivell mundial, i les farinetes, que representen la principal font energètica en l'alimentaci

Abstract:

L’alimentation infantile est très encadrée par les instances médicales. Elle constitue donc un point d’observation privilégié de la médicalisation du quotidien et des conditions de diffusion des cultures savantes. Afin d’expliciter les déterminants sociaux de l’alimentation infantile, deux ensembles de données sont mobilisés : d’une part, un corpus documentaire, composé d’articles scientifiques, de publications à destination des parents et des échanges tenus sur un forum en ligne consacré à la puériculture, d’autre part, les données de l’Étude longitudinale française depuis l’enfance.

Abstract:

The aim of this study was to identify dietary patterns during pregnancy and lactation of Saudi Arabian mothers, together with infant feeding practices and identify the beliefs and other factors which lie behind these patterns. The implications for the nutritional health of mother and baby were also explored. Data was collected in three separate studies: 1. An investigation of antenatal records of 92 mothers who had given birth to normal weight babies compared with records of 46 mothers who had given birth to babies weighing less than 2.500 kg. 2. Survey of dietary patterns and beliefs of 227 w

Introdução. O aleitamento materno destaca-se em termos nutricionais e de proteção contra doenças; sua prática deve ser mantida após os seis meses, enquanto o lactente recebe alimentos complementares. A alimentação adequada e saudável é essencial para o pleno desenvolvimento infantil. Considerando que o consumo alimentar é influenciado por fatores individuais, sociais e ambientais, conhecer os mesmos é fundamental para promover e proteger a saúde no início da vida. Objetivo Geral. Analisar o consumo alimentar de lactentes paulistas no segundo semestre de vida. Métodos. Estudo transversal com da

Abstract:

Since 2002, the minimum recommended age worldwide for the introduction of solid foods has been six months, an age when most infants are able to bring food to their mouth and chew it, without assistance. Despite this, the practice of spoon feeding with purées remains prevalent and most research to date has examined the introduction of solid foods from the adult’s perspective rather than the infant’s. As a result, factors that may impact on the food preferences of infants, such as the appearance, smell and haptic qualities of food, have not been investigated, nor has the routine use of puréed fo
