The EU Childhood Obesity ProjectEmail this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
The European Union Childhood Obesity Project was set up in 2001 to test the hypothesis that the higher risk of obesity seen in formula-fed infants [ndash] as compared with breastfed babies [ndash] is a result of the higher protein content in infant formulas than in breastmilk. The infants participating in the study were recruited between 2002 and 2004 and followed up for 2 years. The first results of the study were published earlier this year. After 2 years, the weight-for-length and body mass index of the infants fed the lower-protein formula were significantly lower than those fed the higher-protein formulas. Extrapolati...

Infant nutrition – protein and its influence on growth rateEmail this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
Breastfeeding provides the optimum nutrition for young infants and one of the aims of the new UK-World Health Organization growth charts is to encourage healthcare professionals and parents to see breastfed infants' growth rate as the norm. Formula-fed infants gain weight more quickly than breastfed infants in the first year of life, and this may be because of the greater quantity of protein in infant formula. Childhood obesity rates are increasing and obesity is probably the result of a multitude of factors. Observational studies have indicated that rapid growth in infancy may contribute to a later risk of obesity. New ra...

The development of childhood dietary preferences and their implications for later adult healthEmail this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
The food fed to infants and young children not only determines their health in childhood but also predicts the foods that they eat in later life. Because adult dietary preferences are partially formed in childhood, the childhood diet inevitably contributes to the long-term health of the individual. We are all aware of preferences that have endured since childhood, and that our dietary habits only change if we have reason to adapt them, perhaps for a healthier lifestyle. Adopting a healthy diet in adulthood is likely to be considerably easier if we have developed healthy food preferences during our childhood. Current inform...

Hydration in sport and exercise: water, sports drinks and other drinksEmail this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
There is evidence to suggest that exercise-induced dehydration can have a negative impact on exercise performance, and restoration of fluid balance should be achieved after exercise. It is equally well known that muscle glycogen must be restored after exercise if subsequent performance is not to be negatively affected. Sports drinks are ideally placed to fill both these roles. However, while muscle glycogen restoration can be comfortably achieved by consumption of solid food, the same is not true for restoration of hydration status. Clear evidence is available that drinking during exercise can improve performance, provided...

Probiotics are live microorganisms [ndash] mainly bacteria [ndash] which when administered in adequate amounts confer a health benefit on the host. There is rising interest in this area, but reports in the media are often conflicting. The aim of this review is to consider the current evidence on the effects of probiotics on health, focusing on gut-related health issues and the immune system, with the objective to provide a clearer picture of whether and how probiotics can be beneficial for health. The outcomes of this review are based on more than 100 original studies, meta-analyses and systematic reviews. A variety of dif...

Potential impact of the Choices Programme on nutrient intakes in the Dutch populationEmail this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
The objective of the present study is to assess the potential effect on nutrient intakes in the Dutch population after replacing normally consumed foods in diets with foods that are eligible to carry a Choices stamp. Usual nutrient intakes were calculated using deterministic modelling with the Monte Carlo risk assessment model. Inputs for the modelling were food intakes (Dutch Food Consumption Survey 2003) and composition of foods from the Dutch food composition database. For a selection of nutrients, three scenarios were calculated and compared: (1) nutrient intakes 'as measured', based on the original Dutch Food Consumpt...

Can soyabean isoflavones mimic the effects of energy restriction on healthy ageing?Email this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
Energy restriction is the only known robust dietary measure effective in increasing lifespan across a wide variety of species. Our current research indicates a role for the best-established dietary mimetic of energy restriction, the red grape polyphenol resveratrol, in altering information carried by DNA at a level superimposed on the information provided by the sequence of bases, known as epigenetic marking. These effects appear to share a common pathway with some of the effects of energy restriction that involve the protein Sirt1. Preliminary observations made in human intestinal cells reveal that isoflavones found in th...

Over recent years, consumers have shown an increasing interest in health and wellbeing, with many wanting food and drink products that are healthy and nutritious, yet fit in with busy lifestyles. Fruit juice is one beverage that has seen a dramatic increase in consumer purchasing since the 1970s, and is now consumed by nearly half the UK population. While the beneficial effects of consuming diets rich in fruit and vegetables are well documented, the specific health effects of consuming fruit juice are less so. Further, the role of fruit juice in conditions such as obesity has also recently come under scrutiny, due to quest...

Developing a focus group approach for exploring parents' perspectives on childhood overweightEmail this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
Numerous public health initiatives have been proposed in an attempt to reduce the number of overweight and obese children nationally. The success of such strategies is heavily reliant upon families recognising and becoming engaged with the issue. It is therefore important to understand parents' perceptions of excess weight in children and which preventive strategies would be most acceptable to them. The present paper describes the development of a focus group approach designed to explore these important research questions and illustrates techniques that can be readily implemented and replicated to explore complex and sensi...

Health impacts of vitamin D: are we getting enough?Email this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
Increasingly, scientists are debating whether photochemical synthesis of vitamin D in Western countries is adequate, and whether dietary intakes can plug the gap between endogenous vitamin D production and requirements, particularly in young and older populations. The debate is driven by the plethora of evidence suggesting that, in addition to its important role in maintaining bone health, vitamin D may be involved in ameliorating cell ageing and preventing cardiovascular disease, diabetes, immune dysfunction and some cancers. Observational evidence from different populations suggests a significant degree of vitamin D insu...

An assessment of the economic and heart health benefits of replacing saturated fat in the diet with monounsaturates in the form of rapeseed (canola) oilEmail this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
There is a well-established requirement for the UK population to reduce the saturates content of its diet from around 13.3% energy (E) intake to 10% E intake (including alcohol) and to improve fat quality by increasing monounsaturated fatty acid (MUFA) intake. Canola (rapeseed) oil is one of the richest sources of dietary MUFAs and is a good source of the omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) alpha-linolenic acid. Recent advances using conventional plant breeding have led to the development of high-oleic canola, which has an increased level of MUFA and greater oxidative stability, making it suitable for a wide range of...

Satiation, satiety and their effects on eating behaviourEmail this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
Conclusions In the context of the rising prevalence of obesity around the world, it is vital to understand how energy balance and bodyweight are controlled. The ability to balance energy intake and expenditure is critical to survival, and sophisticated physiological mechanisms have developed in order to do this, including the control of appetite. Satiation and satiety are part of the body's appetite control system and are involved in limiting energy intake. Satiation is the process that causes one to stop eating; satiety is the feeling of fullness that persists after eating, suppressing further consumption, and both are im...
