Download or read book Three Essays on Household Committed Activities and Diet Quality written by Benjamin Scharadin and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Obesity and diabetes are two very important diet-related issues in the U.S. Due to the strong connection between these diseases and diet quality, there is a large body of research investigating the connection between income, the food environment and diet quality. However, despite numerous studies and interventions addressing income and food-environment factors, the diet-quality gap between low-income and high-income households still persists. Therefore, researchers have begun to study the role of household time allocations on diet quality. In particularly, these three essays consider time spent in primary childcare, secondary childcare, adult care, and non-car transportation because 1) these are committed activities, i.e., activities that must be completed given past decisions, and 2) non-food activities may be more easily influenced by policy.In the first essay I consider how the share of a households day spent in childcare (secondary or primary), adult care, non-car transportation, and food-at-home (FAH) activities influence the share of household food expenditure in certain food groups, while in the second essay I consider how the share of time spent in childcare, adult care, and FAH activities affect the households Healthy Eating Index (HEI). In the third essay I switch focus to food away from home (FAFH) and consider how time spent in primary childcare, secondary childcare, adult care, working, and FAH activities affect the probability and frequency of fast-food purchases. In general I find that secondary childcare and adult care are associated with lower diet quality, while primary childcare and FAH activities are associated with higher diet quality. In addition, income and the food environment influence the effect of time spent in these activities.

Download or read book Delicioso written by María José Sevilla and published by Reaktion Books. This book was released on 2019-10-15 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Spanish cuisine is a melting-pot of cultures, flavors, and ingredients: Greek and Roman; Jewish, Moorish, and Middle Eastern. It has been enriched by Spanish climate, geology, and spectacular topography, which have encouraged a variety of regional food traditions and “Cocinas,” such as Basque, Galician, Castilian, Andalusian, and Catalan. It has been shaped by the country’s complex history, as foreign occupations brought religious and cultural influences that determined what people ate and still eat. And it has continually evolved with the arrival of new ideas and foodstuffs from Italy, France, and the Americas, including cocoa, potatoes, tomatoes, beans, and chili peppers. Having become a powerhouse of creativity and innovation in recent decades, Spanish cuisine has placed itself among the best in the world. This is the first book in English to trace the history of the food of Spain from antiquity to the present day. From the use of pork fat and olive oil to the Spanish passion for eggplants and pomegranates, María José Sevilla skillfully weaves together the history of Spanish cuisine, the circumstances affecting its development and characteristics, and the country’s changing relationship to food and cookery.

Download or read book Communities in Action written by National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2017-04-27 with total page 583 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the United States, some populations suffer from far greater disparities in health than others. Those disparities are caused not only by fundamental differences in health status across segments of the population, but also because of inequities in factors that impact health status, so-called determinants of health. Only part of an individual's health status depends on his or her behavior and choice; community-wide problems like poverty, unemployment, poor education, inadequate housing, poor public transportation, interpersonal violence, and decaying neighborhoods also contribute to health inequities, as well as the historic and ongoing interplay of structures, policies, and norms that shape lives. When these factors are not optimal in a community, it does not mean they are intractable: such inequities can be mitigated by social policies that can shape health in powerful ways. Communities in Action: Pathways to Health Equity seeks to delineate the causes of and the solutions to health inequities in the United States. This report focuses on what communities can do to promote health equity, what actions are needed by the many and varied stakeholders that are part of communities or support them, as well as the root causes and structural barriers that need to be overcome.
