It deals about the professors experiences deployments lived in 2003 e 2004, both in Nutrition undergraduate course of the Federal University of the Rio Grande do Norte (UFRN), in Nutrition Education and Supervised Internship in Social Nutrition academic disciplines, as well as in the II Update Course in Nutrition Practices for Health Basic Care , offered to the supervisors nutritionists of internship, in this same department, being able to be characterized as an action-research, with interventionism purpose. The study stands out the importance of a new point of view about the nutritionist formation to overcome the limits imposed by the scientism, and the adoption of a complex and reflexive reference about the educational practice in this area. The corpus is made up by 81 undergraduate students alimentary autobiography (source of generating subjects for interventions with the nutritionists), 17 questionnaires and 05 interviews, being 03 of them biography (the start up for an initial dialogue with the nutritionists). The data found and the professors experiences allied to a theoretic reference, by the light of the education proposals for the XXI century were used as establishment elements for the proposition of five guidance axles used to build a complex and reflexive nutrition education, which are: 1) Take the cookery and the culture of eating together as significant elements for the human being integral formation; 2) Conceive the religion manifestations associated to feeding process as relevant elements of the human food culture; 3) Discuss the rupture nature/culture aiming the preservation of live in earth; 4) Search for the overcoming of the identity conflicts by a higher inclosing conscience degrees of being part of this process. 5) Face the limits of fragmented formation. The presented thesis stands that the autobiography method, allied to the freirean pedagogy and to a complex reference, could be taken as an important tool to the health educative subjects, contributing to the formation of reflective individuals able to transform themselves and the world. / Este trabalho apresenta pistas para a a??o educativa em nutri??o. Trata do desdobramento de viv?ncias docentes experienciadas em 2003 e 2004, tanto no curso de Gradua??o em Nutri??o, da Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Norte (UFRN), nas disciplinas de Educa??o Nutricional e Est?gio Supervisionado em Nutri??o Social , bem como no II Curso de Atualiza??o nas Pr?ticas de Nutri??o na Aten??o B?sica ? Sa?de , oferecido ?s nutricionistas supervisoras de est?gio, pelo mesmo departamento, podendo ser caracterizada como uma pesquisa-a??o, de cunho intervencionista. O estudo ressalta a import?ncia de um novo olhar sobre a forma??o do nutricionista para a supera??o dos limites impostos pelo cientificismo, e a ado??o de um referencial complexo e reflexivo sobre o fazer educativo nesta ?rea. O corpus est? constitu?do por 81 autobiografias alimentares de graduandas (fonte de temas geradores para interven??es junto a nutricionistas), 17 question?rios e 05 entrevistas, sendo 03 biogr?ficas (ponto de partida para o in?cio de um di?logo junto ?s nutricionistas). Os dados encontrados e a experi?ncia docente aliada ao referencial te?rico, iluminados pelas propostas de educa??o para o s?culo XXI serviram como elementos fundantes da proposi??o de cinco eixos norteadores para a constru??o de uma educa??o nutricional complexa e reflexiva, que s?o: 1) Tomar o fazer culin?rio e a comensalidade como elementos significativos para a forma??o integral dos seres humanos; 2) Conceber as manifesta??es de religiosidade associadas ? alimenta??o como elementos relevantes da cultura alimentar humana. 3) Discutir a ruptura natureza/cultura visando a preserva??o da vida da Terra; 4) Buscar a supera??o dos conflitos identit?rios pela consci?ncia de graus de pertencimento mais abrangentes; 5) Enfrentar os limites da forma??o fragmentadora. A tese apresentada ? a de que o m?todo autobiogr?fico, aliado ? pedagogia freireana e a um referencial complexo, pode ser tomado como uma ferramenta importante para o trabalho educativo em sa?de, contribuindo para a forma??o de sujeitos capazes de refletir para transformar a si e ao mundo

Introdução: a prevalência de obesidade infantil tem aumentado rapidamente no Brasil nas últimas décadas. Por isso, há uma necessidade urgente de desenvolver estratégias efetivas na prevenção e controle da obesidade infantil. Neste contexto, foi desenvolvido um programa de intervenção com educação nutricional e atividade física no âmbito escolar, com o objetivo de prevenção e controle da obesidade, denominado TriAtiva: educação, alimentação e atividade física. Métodos: trata-se de um estudo controlado randomizado por conglomerado, conduzido em 12 escolas municipais da cidade de Porto Alegre/RS (6 escolas intervenção e 6 escolas controle), do primeiro ao quarto ano do ensino fundamental, durante um ano letivo. O Programa TriAtiva foi implementado nas escolas de intervenção, através de práticas educativas relacionadas à alimentação saudável e à atividade física, visando ao desenvolvimento da saúde do aluno em um ambiente favorável, com o envolvimento da comunidade escolar e dos familiares. Foi considerado desfecho primário o índice de massa corporal e como desfechos secundários o percentual de gordura corporal, circunferência da cintura, além da prevalência, incidência e remissão do excesso de peso e obesidade. Resultados: foram avaliados 600 escolares, com uma perda de 10,3% até o final do estudo. Comparados ao grupo controle, escolares do grupo intervenção apresentaram redução no índice de massa corporal (IMC), com diferença de média padronizada (DMP) de -0,18 (IC95%: -0,27 a -0,08; P=0,002), no peso com DMP de -0,10 (IC95%: - 0,16 a -0,04; P=0,004) e no escore Z do IMC com DMP de -0,19 (IC95%: -0,29 a -0,09; P=0,002), todos com significância estatística. Também houve redução, mas não estatisticamente significativa, na circunferência da cintura com DMP de -0,07 (IC95%: -0,13 a 0,02; P=0,06) e no percentual de gordura corporal com DMP de -0,07 (IC95%: -0,28 a 0,14; P=0,47). O grupo intervenção apresentou mudança com a redução na prevalência de excesso de peso e obesidade com odds ratio (OR) de 0,77 (IC95%:0,61 a 0,97; P=0,02) e OR de 0,54 (IC95%: 0,44 a 0,67; P<0,001), respectivamente. Também houve aumento na remissão do excesso de peso e obesidade, com OR de 3,57 (IC95%: 1,39 a 9,09; P=0,008) e OR de 7,69 (IC95%: 3,94 a 14,28; P<0,001), respectivamente. Mas não houve mudanças na incidência do excesso de peso com OR de 0,57 (IC95%: 0,20 a 1,62; P= 0,29) e na obesidade com OR de 0,89 (IC95%: 0,18 a 4,28; P=0,88). Conclusão: o Programa TriAtiva apresentou efeitos positivos no IMC e mudanças favoráveis na prevalência e remissão da obesidade, após o término do programa, tornando-se um aliado na prevenção e controle da obesidade, no âmbito escolar.

Methods: This is a cluster randomized controlled trial, conducted in 12 public schools in Porto Alegre/RS (6 intervention schools and 6 control schools), from first to fourth grade from elementary school during one school year. The TriAtiva Program was implemented in the intervention schools through educational practices associated to healthy eating and physical activity, aimed the development of the health for student in a favorable environment, with the involvement of the school community and family. The body mass index was considered the primary outcome and the secondary outcomes were the percentage of body fat, waist circumference, beyond the prevalence, incidence and remission of overweight and obesity. Results: 600 students were assessed, the loss was 10.3% until the end of the study. Compared to the control group, students in the intervention group showed a reduction in body mass index (BMI), the standardized mean difference (SMD) was -0.18 (95% CI: -0.27 to -0.08; P = 0.002 ), SMD for the weight was -0.10 (95% CI: - 0.16 to -0.04; P = 0.004) and for BMI z-score was -0.19 (95% CI: -0.29 to -0.09; P = 0.002), all with statistical significance. There was a reduction, but not statistically significant, in waist circumference, where SMD was -0.07 (95% CI: -0.13 to 0.02; P = 0.06) and SMD for percentage of body fat was -0.07 (95% CI: -0.28 to 0.14; P = 0.47). The intervention group showed a change with a reduction in the prevalence of overweight and obesity, odds ratio (OR) was 0.77 (95% CI: 0.61 to 0.97; P = 0.02) and 0.54 (95% CI: 0.44 to 0.67; P < 0.001), respectively. Also there was an increase in the remission of overweight and obesity, where OR was 3.57 (95% CI: 1.39 to 9.09; P = 0.008) and 7.69 (95% CI: 3.94 to 14.28; P < 0.001), respectively. Although there were no changes in the incidence of overweight where OR was 0.57 (95% CI: 0.20 to 1.62; P = 0.29) and for obesity OR was 0.89 (95% CI: 0.18 to 4.28; P = 0.88). Conclusion: TriAtiva program showed positive effects on BMI and favorable changes in the prevalence and remission of obesity, after the program ends, becoming an allied in the prevention and control of obesity at schools.

Foi empregada a abordagem qualitativa, por meio de entrevistas não estruturadas, focalizadas. Para análise do conteúdo simbólico utilizou-se a teoria das representações sociais de Moscovici. Os saberes objetivos e subjetivos vinculados ao contexto rural constroem o comportamento alimentar das famílias, dando origem a práticas e representações que influenciam o consumo de alimentos, especialmente de frutas, o cotidiano alimentar na esfera doméstica, o conceito de alimentação saudável, a forma de apropriação da alimentação escolar e as relações do grupo com o setor saúde e com as redes de apoio social. Os homens gerenciam a renda doméstica e realizam a compra de alimentos. O cotidiano alimentar das famílias é condicionado à monotonia alimentar. As verduras e legumes são classificados como alimentos não essenciais. A realização de hortas e a partilha desses alimentos está relacionada a determinadas normas de convivência do campo. As frutas estão mais ligadas à esfera do trabalho na lavoura do que a elementos que as aproximem ao conceito de comida, expresso nas representações: não alimenta; garante a sobrevivência do trabalho familiar no campo representando o sustento familiar. Apesar das frutas cultivadas serem consumidas rotineiramente, frutas são consideradas ¿comida¿ apenas quando compradas. As famílias se percebem como ¿remediadas¿ em relação à condição social, tendo em vista o amparo das redes de apoio social, esta situação as exclui da categoria ¿pobre de verdade¿. O conceito de pobreza está relacionado à garantia de alimentação. Entre os conceitos de alimentação saudável estão: não é algo ligado à rotina; não é essencial; é um objeto de diferenciação social, pois é composta por alimentos especiais, não consumidos diariamente; é uma comida de que se gosta; é uma comida que não faz mal à saúde. O Bolsa Família foi o programa social mais freqüentemente citado, porém, a sua oferta está relacionada ao caráter de sujeição ao programa. As preparações salgadas são mais valorizadas na alimentação escolar por reproduzirem o universo simbólico dos valores vinculados aos alimentos na esfera doméstica. As políticas públicas de saúde e estratégias de intervenção em alimentação em zona rural devem considerar tanto as práticas cotidianas desenvolvidas pela comunidade quanto a subjetividade a elas vinculada / Abstract: This study was developed in the "Work-Health-Education" line of research, as part of a project of the A3EN Group - Group of Support, Improvement and Updates in Nutrition Education, having as its objective the study of the practices and representations related to food among sharecropper fruit producers, understanding them as a social process, important in determining the health conditions of a population. The qualitative approach was used, through non-structured but focused interviews. For the analysis of the symbolic content, Moscovici's theory of social representations was used. The objective and subjective knowledge linked to the rural context constructs the food habits of the families, giving rise to practices and representations that influence the consumption of foods, especially fruit, the everyday domestic eating habits, the concept of healthy eating, the attitude to school meals and the relationship of the group with the health sector and social support networks. The men manage domestic income and the purchase of foodstuffs. The everyday eating habits of the families is conditioned to monotony. Vegetables and legumes are classified as non-essential foods. The keeping of vegetable gardens and the sharing of these foods is related to certain norms of communal living in the country. Fruits are more associated with the world of work in the fields than with elements that approach the concept of food, a process linked with their representations: they are not feeding; they guarantee the survival of family work in the fields representing the upkeep of the family. Even though the fruit grown is consumed regularly, fruit is considered "food" only when bought. The families see themselves as "remedied" in relation to social condition, considering the work of the social support networks, this situation excludes them from the category of "really poor". The concept of poverty is related to the guarantee of food. Among the concepts of healthy food are: it is not something linked to their routine; it is not essential; it is an object of social differentiation, as it is composed of special foods, not consumed daily; it is a food that you like; it is a food that is not bad for one's health. The "Bolsa Família" (Family Benefit) was the most frequently mentioned social programme, however, its availability is related to the form of being subjected to the programme. Salty foods are most valued in school meals as they reproduce the universe symbolizing the values linked to the foods in the domestic sphere. Public health policies and strategies of food intervention in the rural area should consider not only the daily practices developed by the community but also the subjectivity they are linked with / Mestrado / Enfermagem e Trabalho / Mestre em Enfermagem

Intervenção nutricional educativa em pacientes submetidos à angioplastia transluminal coronária: ensaio clínico randomizado [Tese]. São Paulo: Faculdade de Medicina, Universidade de São Paulo; 2016. INTRODUÇÃO: Mudanças no estilo de vida são estimuladas na prevenção primária e secundária da doença arterial coronária. A educação para promoção de saúde requer uma atividade capaz de problematizar a realidade do indivíduo e capacitá-lo para escolhas conscientes. Considerando os aspectos pluridimensionais da alimentação e a dificuldade de mudanças no comportamento alimentar, o objetivo deste estudo foi analisar a efetividade de uma intervenção nutricional educativa em pacientes submetidos à angioplastia transluminal coronária (ATC) quanto à mortalidade e recorrência de eventos como infarto agudo do miocárdio (IAM), revascularização cirúrgica do miocárdio (RM) ou nova ATC em até um ano de acompanhamento. Os objetivos secundários incluíram consumo alimentar; medidas antropométricas e bioquímicas; estágios de mudança do comportamento alimentar e a ocorrência de eventos cardiovasculares em até quatro anos de seguimento, além de uma análise qualitativa dos fatores socioculturais e atitudinais que influenciaram as práticas alimentares dessa população. MÉTODOS: Foi realizado um ensaio clínico controlado, randomizado e pragmático, com duração de um ano, relativo aos cuidados clínico-nutricionais nos grupos controle e intervenção, sendo neste adicionadas oficinas educativas de nutrição com abordagem construtivista. O ensaio foi complementado com um estudo de coorte para observar eventos cardiovasculares em até quatro anos. Foram alocados 200 pacientes, sendo 101 no grupo intervenção. Ao final do primeiro ano e depois de quatro anos, foram calculadas a redução do risco absoluto e o risco relativo como medidas de incidência cumulativa, respectivamente. RESULTADOS: Ao final de um ano de seguimento, nos grupos intervenção e controle, respectivamente, houve cinco e sete óbitos (p = 0,53); cinco e seis IAM (p = 0,73); quatro e seis re-ATC (p = 0,50); e quatro e quatro RMs (p = 0,98). Após quatro anos, os RR entre os grupos de intervenção e controle foram 0,75 (IC95% 0,35-1,58) para óbito; 0,89 (IC95% 0,34-2,28) para IAM; 0,86 (IC95% 0,40-1,84) para re-ATC e 1,14 (IC95% 0,38-3,40) para RM. Quanto à ingestão alimentar, observou-se redução de gordura saturada (p=0,04) e aumento de fibras (p=0,03) e potássio (p=0,01) no grupo intervenção comparado ao controle. As medidas antropométricas e bioquímicas não apresentaram diferença entre os grupos. A análise estratificada mostrou um efeito protetor para a circunferência da cintura nos subgrupos de idosos [-2.6 cm (IC95% -4,7; -0.6)] e até quatro anos de estudo [-2.5 cm (IC95% -4,9; -0,1)], com interação entre eles (p=0,02). Quanto à mudança de comportamento, houve um aumento no número de indivíduos nos estágios de ação/manutenção de 2,2 vezes (IC95%1,0;5,2) no grupo intervenção, porém sem diferença entre os grupos. Foram identificados fatores socioculturais relacionados ao prazer, hábito, cultura e medo, bem como fatores atitudinais como mudanças declaradas, ambivalência e resistência que permearam as práticas alimentares independente do estágio de mudança, além do conhecimento adquirido, explícito ou ausente. CONCLUSÕES: A intervenção educativa pareceu vantajosa, embora a amostra não tenha sido suficiente para ser conclusiva quanto à ocorrência de eventos cardiovasculares. Houve redução de gordura saturada e aumento no consumo de fibras e potássio, porém sem melhora nas medidas antropométricas e bioquímicas, exceto um menor acúmulo de gordura abdominal em idosos e sujeitos com baixa escolaridade. Há de se fortalecer o debate dos aspectos culturais que constituem o espaço social alimentar e repensar a orientação valorizando as mudanças positivas e escolhas alimentares dentro de um contexto de padrão alimentar saudável / INTRODUCTION: Changes in lifestyle are encouraged in primary and secondary prevention of coronary artery disease. The education for health promotion requires an activity capable of problematizing the individual\'s reality and enabling him to make conscious choices. Considering the multidimensional aspects of feeding and the difficulty of changes in eating behavior, the objective of this study was to analyze the effectiveness of a nutrition education intervention program on mortality and recurrence of events as acute myocardial infarction (AMI), revascularization with re-percutaneous coronary intervention (re-PCI), or coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery after one year of follow-up in patients who previously underwent elective PCI. The secondary objectives included food consumption, anthropometric and biochemical parameters, stages of dietary change, and recurrence of cardiovascular events after four years of follow-up, besides a qualitative analysis of the cultural and attitudinal factors that influenced the dietary practices of this population. METHODS: A controlled, randomized, and pragmatic clinical trial was performed during one-year, related to the clinical and nutritional care in the control and intervention groups, and nutrition education workshops that adopted a constructivist approach were additionally applied to the intervention group. The trial was complemented with a cohort study to observe cardiovascular events up to four years of follow-up. Two hundred patients were allocated, 101 in the intervention group. The absolute risk reduction and the risk ratio were calculated as measures of the cumulative incidence after one and four years, respectively. RESULTS: After one year of follow-up, in the intervention and control groups, respectively, there were five and seven deaths (p=0,53); five and six AMIs (p=0,73); four and six re-PCIs (p=0,50); and four and four CABGs (p=0,98). After four years, the risk ratios between intervention and control groups were 0,75 (95%CI 0,35-1,58) for death, 0.89 (95%CI 0,34-2,28) for AMI, 0,86 (95%CI 0,40-1,84) for re-PCI, and 1,14 (95%CI 0,38-3,40) for CABG. Regarding food consumption, a decrease in saturated fat (p = 0.04) and increase in fiber (p = 0.03) and potassium (p = 0.01) intakes were observed in the intervention group compared to the control group. Anthropometric and biochemical measurements did not show any difference between groups. The stratified analysis showed a protective effect for waist circumference in the elderly [-2.6 cm (95%CI-4,7; -0,6)] and individuals up to four years of study [-2.5 cm (95%CI -4,9 ;-0,1)] subgroups, with interaction between them (p = 0,02). Regarding the change in dietary behaviour, there was an increase in the number of individuals in the action/maintenance stages of 2.2 times (95%CI 1,0; 5,2) in the intervention group, but with no difference between the groups. Factors related to pleasure, habit, culture and fear were identified, as well as attitudinal factors such as stated changes, ambivalence and resistance that permeated eating practices regardless of the stage of change, as well as acquired, explicit or absent knowledge. CONCLUSION: The educational intervention seemed advantageous, although the sample was not enough to be conclusive about the occurrence of cardiovascular events. There was a reduction in saturated fat and an increase in fiber and potassium consumption, but there was no improvement in anthropometric and biochemical measurements, except for a lower accumulation of abdominal fat in the elderly and subjects with low schooling. There is a need to strengthen the debate on the cultural aspects that constitute the food social space and rethink the orientation by valuing positive changes and food choices within a healthy eating pattern

Contexte. Non seulement le cancer est toujours la principale cause de décès par maladie chez les enfants, mais les deux tiers des survivants présenteront, à l’âge adulte, des séquelles liées aux traitements reçus. Tel qu’il sera décrit dans le présent mémoire, le programme VIE (Valorisation, Implication, Éducation) au Centre hospitalier universitaire Sainte-Justine propose d’implanter un programme d’interventions pour sensibiliser les patients en cours de traitement et leur famille aux bienfaits d’adopter de saines habitudes de vie et les supporter dans le changement de comportements attendus. Un volet de ce programme comprend des ateliers d’éducation culinaire et nutritionnelle. Objectifs. L’objectif principal de ce projet est de développer et de valider un curriculum d’ateliers d’éducation culinaire et nutritionnelle qui permettra de répondre aux particularités d’une clientèle en oncologie pédiatrique en cours de traitements et de prévenir les complications cardiométaboliques à long terme. Un second objectif consiste au développement d’un outil d’évaluation des ateliers. Méthode. Les thèmes, les objectifs d’apprentissages et le contenu des ateliers ont fait l’objet d’un processus de développement et de validation en huit étapes, incluant la consultation d’un comité d’experts. Les recettes en démonstration ont été développées et standardisées par deux nutritionnistes de l’équipe de recherche et leur valeur nutritive analysée à l’aide d’un logiciel d’analyse nutritionnelle. Les outils d’évaluation ont été développés en fonction des objectifs d’apprentissages des ateliers en s’inspirant d’outils de mesure existants et révisés par un expert. Résultats. Six ateliers d’éducation culinaire et nutritionnelle basés sur les données probantes et l’expérience clinique de trois nutritionnistes en oncologie pédiatrique ont été développés et validés. Douze recettes en lien avec les thèmes des ateliers, deux pour chaque atelier, ont été développées, standardisées et leur valeur nutritive validée. Six questionnaires ont été développés pour mesurer la perception de l’acquisition de connaissances, l’intention d’appliquer les apprentissages et la satisfaction des participants pour chacun des ateliers. Conclusion. À notre connaissance, il s’agit du premier programme d’éducation culinaire et nutritionnelle élaboré spécifiquement pour les familles d’une clientèle d’oncologie pédiatrique en cours de traitement. Nous pensons que ce programme répondra aux besoins spécifiques des patients en oncologie pédiatrique et de leur famille et contribuera à les sensibiliser à l’importance d’instaurer ou de maintenir de saines habitudes alimentaires pendant et après les traitements du cancer. / Context. Cancer is still the main cause of death by illness in children. Furthermore, two third of the survivors will present treatment-related late effects in adulthood. As it will be described in this thesis, the VIE program (Valorisation, Implication, Education) at the Sainte-Justine University Hospital Center aims to implement an intervention program to raise awareness of patients ongoing cancer treatments and their family to the benefits of adopting a healthy lifestyle and to support them with expected behavior change. One component of this program consists in nutrition and cooking education workshops. Objectives. The main objective of this project is to develop and validate a nutrition and cooking education workshop curriculum which will address concerns specific to on-treatment pediatric oncology patients and help prevent cardiometabolic late effects. A second objective is to develop an evaluation tool for the workshops. Methodology. The workshops’ themes, specific objectives and content have been subject to an eight-steps development and validation process, including steering committee consultation. The recipes in demonstration have been developed and standardized by two research staff registered dietitians and their nutritional value analyzed with a nutritional analysis software. Evaluation tools have been developed in accordance with the workshops learning objectives, inspired by existing tools and reviewed by expert. Results. Six nutrition and cooking education workshops based on scientific evidence and clinical experience of three pediatric oncology registered dietitians have been developed and validated. Twelve recipes related to the workshops themes, two for each workshop, have been developed, standardized and their nutritional value validated. Six questionnaires have been developed for each workshop to measure participants’ perception of knowledge acquisition, behavioral intention and satisfaction. Conclusion. It is, to our knowledge, the first nutrition and cooking education workshop curriculum elaborated specifically for families of an on-treatment pediatric oncology population. We think that this program will address the needs specific to pediatric oncology patients and their family, while contributing to raise awareness to the importance of adopting and maintaining healthy eating habits during and after cancer treatments.

Submitted in fulfilment of the requirements of the Master of Applied Science in Food and Nutrition, Durban University of Technology, Durban, South Africa, 2016. / Background: The occurrence of absenteeism observed at the Coastal KZN FET College is very large. However, absenteeism of this magnitude is not inconsistent with observations from other educational institutions and work places around the world. Generally, absenteeism is coupled to the absence of good health, the presence of one or more non-communicable disease and the paucity of physical exercise undertaken by the personnel. Absenteeism in the work place results in avoidable financial costs to the employer, the employee, and the country as a whole. The wealth of literature shows that health concerns concerning adults are diet related. Diabetes, heart disease, hypertension, obesity, cancer and other non-communicable diseases (NCD’s) are increasing at an alarming rate, daily. A double-burden plagues South Africa: on the one hand there is over-nutrition (an excessive consumption of nutrients); while on the other there is under-nutrition (an insufficient intake of nutrients by certain groups of individuals). Factors such as urbanisation, globalisation, physical inactivity and consumer financial buying power have a significant influence on these health concerns. Aim: The data gathered in this study will be used to develop nutrition wellness education material as a component of a wellness programme for staff members at the Swinton Campus of the KZN Coastal FET College in Mobeni. Methodology: A needs analysis was undertaken to determine whether nutrition wellness education material as a component of a wellness programme for the institution was appropriate. Three 24-hour recall questionnaires gathered from the staff, data on eating habits and nutrient intake were undertaken/collected. A food frequency questionnaire collected data on the frequency and variety of foods eaten. A health questionnaire gathered data on self-reported illnesses, consumption of alcohol, and smoking habits. The demographics of the group, living conditions, and amount of money earned and spent on food was assessed through a socio-demographic questionnaire. Anthropometric measurements assessed included blood pressure, waist circumference, BMI and Waist-to-height-ratio (WHtR). Results: The sample consisted of 138 participants of which 44% (n=61) were men and 56% (n=77) were women. Less than 50% of the respondents were food secure: only 65 persons (47.1%) in the sample always had money to purchase food. In this group 63.93% of the men and 71.43% of the woman were obese. Subsequently 86% of the women exceeded the waist cut-off point of 88cm while 16.39% of the men were above the 102cm cut-off point. Findings revealed that 42.62% of the men and 25.9% of the women had pre-hypertension while 8.20% of the men and 5.90% of the women were hypertensive. This study indicated that this group was nutrient deficient. The fruit and vegetable intake was between 134.44g - 175.69g per day for men and 124.00g - 183.30g per day for women. Energy, dietary fibre, vitamin A, vitamin D, calcium, magnesium and iodine were below the nutrient adequacy ratio. There were positive correlations between age and systolic blood pressure, waist circumference and systolic blood pressure, waist circumference and diastolic blood pressure and waist-to-height ratio and BMI. Conclusion: Central obesity and to a lesser extent hypertension as well as deficiencies in nutrients and minerals were present in this group. Although the participants indicated a good variety of food, the quality and quantities consumed were not adequate. A link between diet, physical activity and diseases of lifestyle has been demonstrated. A need for nutrition education as a component of the wellness programme is indicated. Nutrition education is important both within and outside the workplace. To make lifestyle changes it is essential that education and knowledge is made available. Behavioural habits including eating habits are principally learnt. If bad behaviour habits can be learnt, good behaviour habits can also be instilled. The proposed intervention is aimed at reducing the incidence of absenteeism and decreasing the presence of non-communicable diseases. It is important for staff members at a FET college to be present in the classroom so that education of quality can be conveyed to learners. Further, the good health of staff members facilitates the ability of teachers to perform their important task of educating young minds at all educational institutions. / M

This project addresses the need for English as a second language nutrition instruction for patients in a forensic mental institution. It incorporates concepts of motivation, situated learning, prison education, English for specific purposes, and content-based instruction into a model which guides the design of a nutrition curriculum, consisting of five lesson plans about the Food Guide Pyramid.

Introdução: na delimitação do escopo educativo, quando as posturas para promover uma alimentação saudável possuem uma formulação predominantemente centrada na perspectiva do que é ensinado e não de quem aprende, são as expectativas do agente-usuário que funcionam como o artefato desvelador dos sentidos da relação educativa. Objetivo: compreender a configuração das expectativas de participação dos usuários de ações em Educação Alimentar e Nutricional, no contexto da América Latina. Métodos: desenvolveu-se um desenho multimétodos de natureza qualitativa, dentro do paradigma crítico. O raciocínio adotou os subsídios teóricos de habitus e campo de Pierre Bourdieu. O acesso às expectativas foi realizado em três etapas: I) reflexão sobre as relações posicionais do outro; II) elaboração de metassíntese qualitativa interpretativa sobre as experiências de participação e III)realização de trabalho empírico em duas metrópoles latino-americanas para acompreensão da configuração das expectativas dos usuários. Resultados: ao inter-relacionar os achados de cada uma das fases, pode-se apontar a regularidade da posição do agente-usuário na posição de paciente, interposta pelas leis do campo da saúde que atravessam o subcampo disciplinar da nutrição. Isto pode ser evidenciado na interface com a dimensão política, materializado nos guias alimentares, que mesmo pretendendo conferir a posição de um cidadão consumidor-cliente universal e homogêneo, se depara com o conflito de transposição à relação hegemônica de paciente. Ao avançar na interface com a dimensão intelectual, representado pelas pesquisas qualitativas da América Latina, encontra-se a confluência de experiências e cenários diversos, mas que se integram pela adversidade e inclui as relações de: gênero, autoridade, pobreza, religião, e com a mídia. Não obstante, aparecem experiências de apoio e de nova construção, baseadas nas relações com as instituições e com os agentes-profissionais que reforçam o compromisso assumido em conquistar uma melhor alimentação. Na interface com o campo da saúde, no nível da Atenção Primária da Saúde, a configuração de expectativas de participação é difusa com relação à dieta, às explicações e à distração, conjugadas por tipo de participação: capturadas, cativadas e céticas. Além disso, estiveram moduladas na sua magnitude por: integração dos sistemas de saúde, instalação de processos educativos, identificação simbólica de locais de encontro, demarcação de competências profissionais e precarização do trabalho do profissional. Dessa forma, mesmo com os usuários tentando assumir uma posição potencial de consumidor-cliente, o campo da saúde insiste sistematicamente na relação posicional de paciente, o que se manifesta nas concepções simbólicas institucionais, além dos sistemas de registro, de informação e de avaliação, assim como na representação política da área, nos espaços de tomada de decisões. Conclusão: as expectativas de participação do agente-usuário e suas propriedades encontram limitação nos seus escopos, pela interferência que exerce o campo da saúde quando professa o desejo de fornecer uma posição de consumidor-cliente, cidadão de direitos, mas que o concebe como um paciente, ideologicamente e sistematicamente. Nesse sentido, isso afeta as suas possibilidades de experiência educativa, o que se mantém apenas na exigência de alcançar a menos uma relação de envolvimento / Introduction: in the delimitation of the educational scope, when the postures to promote healthy eating have a predominantly centered formulation in the perspective of what is taught and not of those who learn, it is the expectations of the user agent that functions as the unveiling artifact of the senses of the education relation. Objective: to understand the configuration of the expectations of participation of users of actions in Food and Nutrition Education in the context of Latin America. Methods: a multimethod design of qualitative nature was developed, within the critical paradigm. The reasoning adopted the theoretical subsidies of habitus and field of Pierre Bourdieu. The access to the expectations was realized in three stages: I) reflection on the positional relations of the other; II) elaboration of qualitative interpretive meta-synthesis on the experiences of participation, and III) carrying out empirical work in two Latin American metropolises to understand the configuration of user expectations. Results: when interrelating the findings in each of the phases, one can point out the regularity of the position of the agent in the position of patient, interposed by the laws of the health field that cross the disciplinary subfield of nutrition. This can be evidenced in the interface with the political dimension, materialized in the alimentary guides, that even intending to confer the position of a universal and homogenous consumer-customer citizen, is faced with the conflict of transposition to the hegemonic relation of patient. As we move towards the interface with the intellectual dimension represented by Latin American qualitative research, we find the confluence of diverse experiences and scenarios, which are integrated by adversity and include the relations of gender, authority, poverty, religion, and the media. Nonetheless, there are experiences of support and new construction based on relationships with institutions and professional agents that reinforce the commitment to better food. In the interface with the health field, at the level of Primary Health Care, the configuration of expectations of participation is diffuse in relation to diet, explanations and distraction, conjugated by type of participation: captured, captivated and skeptics. In addition, they have been modulated in their magnitude by: integration of health systems, installation of educational processes, symbolic identification of meeting places, demarcation of professional skills and precariousness of the work of the professional. Thus, even with users trying to assume a potential consumer-customer position, the health field systematically insists on the positional relation of patient, which is manifested in the institutional symbolic conceptions, in addition to registration, information and evaluation systems, as well as in the political representation of the area, in the decision-making spaces. Conclusion: the expectations of participation of the agent-user and their properties are limited in their areas, by the interference that the health field exerts when it professes the desire to provide a position of consumer-customer, citizen of rights, but who conceives it as a patient, ideologically and systematically. In this sense, this affects their possibilities of educational experience, which keeps it barely in the requirement to reach at least a relation of participation

Obesity and the number overweight of children are currently major global issues. According to the Regional Office for Europe (2006) obesity has risen three times over the last two decades worldwide. The attention is currently focused on health promotion and disease prevention among the population through comprehensive health education starting in the early age of individuals, aimed to slow down the increasing incidence of obesity and related health issues. This thesis discusses the pedagogical aspects of health, specifically the options on how to shape nutritional habits of elementary and middle school students and how to systematically deepen the required knowledge about healthy nutrition by implementation of nutrition education programs. The purpose of this study was to determine the relationships between dietary habits and healthy nutrition knowledge of grade nine students in elementary schools from the South Bohemian region in Czech Republic. A validated Nutritional survey and Nutritional knowledge quiz were designed to determine the relationship between knowledge and behavior of grade nine students from South Bohemia elementary schools. The validity of the Nutritional survey and the Nutritional knowledge quiz were tested using analytical analysis of all survey and test items and examining...
