Book How Food Away from Home Affects Children s Diet Quality

Download or read book How Food Away from Home Affects Children s Diet Quality written by Lisa Mancino and published by DIANE Publishing. This book was released on 2010 with total page 32 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a print on demand edition of a hard to find publication. This study includes estimates of how each child¿s consumption of food away from home, food from school, and caloric sweetened beverages affects that child¿s diet quality and calorie consumption. Compared with meals and snacks prepared at home, food prepared away from home increases caloric intake of children, esp. older children. Each food-away-from-home meal adds 108 more calories to daily total intake among children ages 13-18 than a snack or meal from home. Both food away from home and all food from school also lower the daily diet quality of older children. Among younger children, the effect of food from school on caloric intake and diet quality does not differ significantly from that of food from home. Charts and tables.

Book excerpt: Based on 2 days of dietary data and panel data methods, this study includes estimates of how each child's consumption of food away from home, food from school (which includes all foods available for purchase at schools, not only those offered as part of USDA reimbursable meals), and caloric sweetened beverages affects that child's diet quality and calorie consumption. Compared with meals and snacks prepared at home, food prepared away from home increases caloric intake of children, especially older children. Each food-away-from-home meal adds 108 more calories to daily total intake among children ages 13-18 than a snack or meal from home; all food from school is estimated to add 145 more calories. Both food away from home and all food from school also lower the daily diet quality of older children (as measured by the 2005 Healthy Eating Index). Among younger children, who are more likely than older children to eat a USDA school meal and face a more healthful school food environment, the effect of food from school on caloric intake and diet quality does not differ significantly from that of food from home.

Book Away from home Food and Diet Quality

Download or read book Away from home Food and Diet Quality written by Elizabeth M. Karr and published by Nova Science Publishers. This book was released on 2011 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Among children aged 6 to 18 years, away-from-home foods are most likely to come from fast food outlets, restaurants and schools. Increased consumption of such foods may be a cause of being overweight, or it may just be correlated with other factors that increase the risk of being overweight, such as individual food preferences and access to myriad foot outlets. Consumption of caloric sweetened beverages, which is associated with both overweight and eating out, may contribute to the effects of away-from-home foods on caloric intake and diet quality. This new book examines the effects of both commercially prepared food away from home and all food from school on the diets of children.

Book Food Marketing to Children and Youth

Download or read book Food Marketing to Children and Youth written by Institute of Medicine and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2006-05-11 with total page 537 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Creating an environment in which children in the United States grow up healthy should be a high priority for the nation. Yet the prevailing pattern of food and beverage marketing to children in America represents, at best, a missed opportunity, and at worst, a direct threat to the health prospects of the next generation. Children's dietary and related health patterns are shaped by the interplay of many factorsâ€"their biologic affinities, their culture and values, their economic status, their physical and social environments, and their commercial media environmentsâ€"all of which, apart from their genetic predispositions, have undergone significant transformations during the past three decades. Among these environments, none have more rapidly assumed central socializing roles among children and youth than the media. With the growth in the variety and the penetration of the media have come a parallel growth with their use for marketing, including the marketing of food and beverage products. What impact has food and beverage marketing had on the dietary patterns and health status of American children? The answer to this question has the potential to shape a generation and is the focus of Food Marketing to Children and Youth. This book will be of interest to parents, federal and state government agencies, educators and schools, health care professionals, industry companies, industry trade groups, media, and those involved in community and consumer advocacy.

Book The Impact of Parents  Perceptions of the Food Quality Within Their Neighborhood and Most Frequented Food Stores and the Distance to Food Stores on Children s Diet Quality

Download or read book The Impact of Parents Perceptions of the Food Quality Within Their Neighborhood and Most Frequented Food Stores and the Distance to Food Stores on Children s Diet Quality written by Katharine Olivia Lutz and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 35 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Childhood obesity has reached epidemic proportions in the United States, which could signal an unprecedented shift in lifespan, with the current generation living a short life than their parents. Although there are a variety of contributing factors, some of the largest gains in childhood obesity reduction could come from examining the relationship between the neighborhood food environment and children's diet quality (DQ). While many studies have investigated the influence of distance to supermarkets on adults' DQ, few have examined the effects on young children. Further, studies have rarely considered parents' perceptions of local food quality as a predictor of children's DQ, nor have studies used the parents' frequented food store (FFS) as the measure of exposure. Finally, there remains a need to assess if parents travel farther for food shopping when their perceptions of neighborhood food quality differ from their perceptions of food quality at their FFS, because this additional travel burden may be prohibitive to healthy food procurement. Participants were 686 parent-child pairs from the Neighborhood Impact on Kids (NIK) Study. Parents' perceptions of neighborhood and FFS quality were assessed via survey. Children's DQ was measured as adherence to the Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension (DASH) eating plan's overall and fruit and vegetable (F&V) recommendations through three, random 24-hour dietary recalls. FFSs were identified via survey and street network distances from home to the store were calculated via GIS. Linear regression analyses assessed the associations between parents' perceptions and child DQ as well as distance to the FFS and child DQ. A paired t-test determined if parents held discordant views about food quality between their neighborhood and FFS, and Spearman rank correlation coefficients assessed the association between discordance and food shopping distance. No statistically significant associations were found between parents' perceptions of FFS quality and children's overall DASH score in the adjusted analyses; however, the F&V component DASH score remained significant (p=.05). The adjusted models indicated that increasing distance to the parents' FFS improved children's overall and F&V component DASH scores. Parents' views of food quality within their neighborhood versus FFS differed, with FFSs receiving more positive assessments. Discordant views were weakly and significantly associated with distance to the FFS (r=-0.1, p=.01). Parents' perceptions of the food quality at their FFS are only weakly associated with children's DQ. This may be due to the fact that many factors impact food choice decision-making. The finding that children's DQ improved with increasing distance to the FFS suggested that parents valued healthfulness and were willing to travel farther to procure healthy, affordable food. Additionally, restricting the focus to just the relationship between the home and the FFS may have obscured the true nature of the food environment-diet quality relationship, and future studies should include other common destinations in one's daily activity space (e.g. work or school).

Book Food  Families and Work

Download or read book Food Families and Work written by Rebecca O'Connell and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2016-03-24 with total page 201 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With dual-working households now the norm, Food, Families and Work is the first comprehensive study to explore how families negotiate everyday food practices in the context of paid employment. As the working hours of British parents are among the highest in Europe, the United Kingdom provides a key case study for investigating the relationship between parental employment and family food practices. Focusing on issues such as the gender division of foodwork, the impact of family income on diet, family meals, and the power children wield over the food they eat, the book offers a longitudinal view of family routines. It explores how the everyday meanings of food change as children grow older and negotiate changes in their own lives and those of their family members. Drawing on extensive quantitative data from large-scale surveys of food and diet – as well as qualitative evidence – to emphasise the larger global context of social and economic change and shifting patterns of family life, Rebecca O'Connell and Julia Brannen present a holistic overview of food practices within busy contemporary family lives. Featuring perspectives from both parents and children, this innovative approach to some of the most hotly-debated topics in food studies is a must-read for students and scholars in food studies, sociology, anthropology, nutrition and public health.

Book Longitudinal Associations Between Home Food Environment and Diet Quality in Children

Download or read book Longitudinal Associations Between Home Food Environment and Diet Quality in Children written by Jonae B. Perez and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 28 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Child and adolescent diets in the United States are high in fat and sodium and low in vegetables, fruits, whole grains, and dairy foods. Parental practices and foods provided in the home greatly influence children's food related behaviors. This impact may change as children progress through adolescence and other factors begin to play a role, such as peers, media, and convenience of food. This study aimed to investigate longitudinal relationships between parenting around food/eating, foods available in the home, and future child diet quality in younger versus older children. The National Impact on Kids (NIK) Study was a prospective cohort study with two time points, baseline and 2-year follow-up. Parental surveys were used to collect data on home food environment and 24-hour food recalls were used to collect child dietary intake. Child diet quality indicators include DASH score, fruit and vegetable intake, and high-energy beverage intake. In this secondary data analysis, participants were dichotomized in to two groups: younger (ages 6-8.99) versus older (ages 9-12.5) at study initiation. Hierarchical linear regression models were used to assess the association between initial parenting around food/eating and foods available in the home and future child diet quality indicators. Participants were 50.7% female and predominantly Non-Hispanic White (70.2%). A significant overall change in DASH scores (p=.053), total fruit and vegetable intake (p=.017), and high-energy beverage consumption (p
