Download or read book Infant Formula written by Institute of Medicine and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2004-06-10 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Infant formulas are unique because they are the only source of nutrition for many infants during the first 4 to 6 months of life. They are critical to infant health since they must safely support growth and development during a period when the consequences on inadequate nutrition are most severe. Existing guidelines and regulations for evaluating the safety of conventional food ingredients (e.g., vitamins and minerals) added to infant formulas have worked well in the past; however they are not sufficient to address the diversity of potential new ingredients proposed by manufacturers to develop formulas that mimic the perceived and potential benefits of human milk. This book, prepared at the request of the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and Health Canada, addresses the regulatory and research issues that are critical in assessing the safety of the addition of new ingredients to infants.

Book excerpt: Background: The obesity epidemic in the United States (US) is a well-established public health crisis associated with immense national healthcare expenditures. The first two years of life represent a potentially critical intervention period for attenuation of inappropriate rapid weight gain and risk of subsequent overweight and obesity in childhood. Low-income mothers in the US are at risk for formula-feeding and early introduction of solid foods, which are behaviors that could lead to excessive rapid weight gain during this critical time period. However, little is known about actual, rather than self-reported, maternal infant-feeding behaviors related to proper infant formula preparation. Objective: To explore maternal infant formula preparation practices and related knowledge, attitudes, and beliefs, among low-income, formula-feeding mothers of very young infants. Methods: This study utilized a cross-sectional, mixed methods design. Participants were mothers of normal birth weight, healthy, term infants less than three months of age, who were predominantly formula-feeding with powdered or from-concentrate infant formula, and who were WIC income-eligible. Study activities included home observations of infant formula preparation and in-depth interviews. Descriptive statistics were used to describe the sample demographic characteristics and home-observation variables. Thematic analysis was used to identify themes present in the in-depth interviews. The mixed methods approach was used to triangulate results of both study activities. Results/Conclusions: Behaviors including over-concentration, over-dilution, modifications/additions to prepared infant formula, and early introduction of solid foods (i.e., cereal added to bottles of infant formula) were observed during the home observations and/or were described during the in-depth interviews. Additionally, there appeared to be inconsistencies between behaviors observed during formula preparation and those reported in subsequent indepth interviews. Targeting knowledge and skills gaps along with motivators of maternal behaviors in this population could diminish the prevalence of infant-feeding practices that may predispose infants to inappropriate rapid weight gain.

Download or read book Infant Feeding written by Isam Jaber Al-Zwaini and published by BoD – Books on Demand. This book was released on 2020-10-28 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Feeding during the first two years of life is very important for the nutrition and growth of an infant. It has a great effect on early morbidity and mortality and long-term effects on health. Breastfeeding has many benefits for both the infant and mother, whereas formula feeding, although associated with disadvantages and problems, can be life-saving for infants who need it. This book examines many aspects of infant feeding and nutrition with chapters covering such topics as the impact of the first 1000 days of nutrition on child health and development, breastfeeding, factors behind the decision to breastfeed or formula feed, and the relationship between breastfeeding and gut microbiota, among others.

This book was released on 2017-06-25 with total page 1063 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants, and Children (WIC) began 40 years ago as a pilot program and has since grown to serve over 8 million pregnant women, and mothers of and their infants and young children. Today the program serves more than a quarter of the pregnant women and half of the infants in the United States, at an annual cost of about $6.2 billion. Through its contribution to the nutritional needs of pregnant, breastfeeding, and post-partum women; infants; and children under 5 years of age; this federally supported nutrition assistance program is integral to meeting national nutrition policy goals for a significant portion of the U.S. population. To assure the continued success of the WIC, Congress mandated that the Food and Nutrition Service of the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) reevaluate the program's food packages every 10 years. In 2014, the USDA asked the Institute of Medicine to undertake this reevaluation to ensure continued alignment with the goals of the Dietary Guidelines for Americans. In this third report, the committee provides its final analyses, recommendations, and the supporting rationale.

Book Making Taste Public

  • Author : Carole Counihan

  • ISBN : 1350052698

Download or read book Making Taste Public written by Carole Counihan and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2018-12-13 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Making Taste Public takes an ethnographic approach to show how social relations shape - and are shaped by - the taste of food. Recognizing that different cultures have different taste preferences and flavour principles embedded in cuisine, editors Carole Counihan and Susanne Højlund ask how these differences are generated. The editors have compiled 14 chapters to show how specific influences become a part of our sensorial apparatus and identity through shared experiences of making, eating, and talking about food. Using case studies from Asia, Europe and America, the book presents a theory of how taste is made public through everyday practices. The authors are exploring how place, production methods and cooking techniques create tastes. They discuss the criteria determining good and bad tastes, and how tastes and memories evolve over time. Subjects such as how values can be embedded in taste, and the role of taste education in food movements, homes, and schools are explored. The different chapters examine definitions and mobilizations of taste in different institutions, public places, and regions around the world to reveal ethnographic understandings of how people learn, experience, and share taste. With contributions spanning the Solomon Islands, Denmark, Japan, Canada, France, the USA, and Italy, Making Taste Public is a fascinating account of how our sense of taste is continuously shaped and re-shaped in relation to social and cultural context, societal and environmental premises. The book will interest anyone studying anthropology, sociology, food studies, sensory studies and human geography.
