Book excerpt: Abstract: Childhood overweight and obesity rates remain high in the United States, and especially in the state of Oklahoma. The purpose of this study was to determine the effectiveness of a nutrition intervention in changing the food choices and decreasing the weight of children. First-grade students and their families were recruited from rural elementary schools surrounding the Stillwater, Oklahoma area. Subjects were split into two intervention groups that both participated in a nutrition and lifestyle intervention utilizing the Stoplight Diet as a guide for healthy eating choices. BMI was assessed at each wave of the study. Before the intervention, food records were collected for at least two full days on a 24-hour recall sheet. A dietary intervention, called the Stoplight Diet, was taught to each intervention group for 12 consecutive weeks at each child's school. Post-intervention, foods were recorded for two more days. Foods were then coded into three categories: green, yellow and red; green being healthiest, red being least healthy. Complete food records were returned by parents for 61 children. There was an overall significant decrease in red foods, an increase in yellow foods, but no significant change in the consumption of green foods after the intervention. Analyses were run to determine effectiveness of each intervention group in reducing BMI and changing foods consumed, and further, whether gender or parent demographics had any influence on foods consumed and BMI status. Gender, intervention designation, and parent demographics had no significant impact on BMI or food choices. Although the Stoplight Diet was not effective in improving BMI classification of overweight or obese children, there was a significant change in food choices made, which can help to attain a healthier lifestyle for children and lead to long-term positive health outcomes over time

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Because the goals of home economics have changed markedly within recent years, facts are needed to chart its future course. This report presents more pertinent facts than any previous study of home economics in the public schools. The report is based on a five-year study, from 1943 to 1948, of the home economics program in twenty Minnesota high schools, a study which Mrs. Arny directed. The report discusses the strong and the weak points of the home economics program, shows the factors which seem to influence its effectiveness, and suggests ways in which the program may be improved.

This book was released on 2020-06-24 with total page 55 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Schools are an attractive entry point to improve children’s diets, as their eating habits can be shaped during childhood and the information disseminated from school can reach adults through children. We implemented a cluster-randomized trial in 12 schools in peri-urban Viet Nam to assess if two school-based interventions increased knowledge of healthy diets among children and their parents, as well as children’s consumption of healthy foods. First, children were given lessons about food before school lunch and encouraged to share the lessons with their parents. Second, children were provided with healthy snacks for five weeks to reinforce messages about healthy eating. We found that in the short term, the nutrition lessons raised the knowledge index score of the children by 0.35 standard deviation. After six months, this intervention retained its effectiveness only for the children who also received free access to fruit, emphasizing the linkage between knowledge and practice. By itself, free access to fruit at school increased the children’s daily fruit consumption by half a portion, but not at the expense of home fruit consumption. Access to healthy foods at school can therefore be an effective measure to raise children’s healthy consumption. Child-parent communication was not a reliable channel for knowledge dissemination in our setting.

This book was released on 2018-06-11 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: FAO provides countries with technical support to conduct nutrition assessments, in particular to build the evidence base required for countries to achieve commitments made at the Second International Conference on Nutrition (ICN2) and under the 2016-2025 UN Decade of Action on Nutrition. Such concrete evidence can only derive from precise and valid measures of what people eat and drink. There is a wide range of dietary assessment methods available to measure food and nutrient intakes (expressed as energy insufficiency, diet quality and food patterns etc.) in diet and nutrition surveys, in impact surveys, and in monitoring and evaluation. Differenct indicators can be selected according to a study's objectives, sample population, costs and required precision. In low capacity settings, a number of other issues should be considered (e.g. availability of food composition tables, cultural and community specific issues, such as intra-household distribution of foods and eating from shared plates, etc.). This manual aims to signpost for the users the best way to measure food and nutrient intakes and to enhance their understanding of the key features, strengths and limitations of various methods. It also highlights a number of common methodological considerations involved in the selection process. Target audience comprises of individuals (policy-makers, programme managers, educators, health professionals including dietitians and nutritionists, field workers and researchers) involved in national surveys, programme planning and monitoring and evaluation in low capacity settings, as well as those in charge of knowledge brokering for policy-making.
