Food provision challenges facing early childhood development centres in two Cape Town townshipsThorogood, Camilla Renée January 2020 (has links)
Magister Philosophiae (Land and Agrarian Studies) - MPhil(LAS) / Early childhood has been identified as a critical period for providing nutritional intervention, with nutritional adequacy during the first 1000 days having long term implications for human development. South Africa’s policy environment accordingly aims to support the development of all children through providing services supporting care and nutrition of children so that ‘no one is left behind’. However, the reality is that for the economically marginalised who live in poverty, these services are inaccessible and the whereabouts of many children, especially those under 5, remain unknown to the state. This study looks at township childcare facility as a key intervention point for nutrition provision, documents the obstacles and challenges they face in securing food for the children in their care and describes the strategies they use to combat these challenges. Using a mixed method approach, data were gathered on all ECDs operating in two Cape Town townships – Vrygrond, a semi-formal township, and Sweet Home Farm, a deeply informal settlement – and a typology was developed which represented the differentiation between these informal businesses in terms of a continuum of connectedness and disconnectedness with the regulatory environment.

Application of self-health-management for health promotionLin, Pei-hsuan 04 September 2006 (has links)
According to a recent report that in Taiwan, more than 50% health problems were due to unhealthy and harmful life styles. Most people, especially at workplace, either live under pressure, work sedentarily, exercise their body little or have a unhealthy diet. The subsequent problems of the overweight, sleeplessness and a declined condition of physical fitness all lead to health problems. A Quasi-experimental design of purposive samples was conducted using 51 participants from employees or faculty members from one school and one hospital. The purpose of this study is to investigate the effects of health self-management program with nutritional and exercise intervention to improve the participants¡¦ physical and psychological health status. Research measuring tools include a structural questionnaire, SF-36 scale, laboratory examination (blood test), physical fitness test administrated to the participants, and a 12-week follow-up test. After the intervention of health self-management, there were significant differences in sleep pattern and diet behavior. On health belief congnition, perceived susceptibility, perceived seriousness, and percieived barriers were increased. On the SF-36 scale, higher scores were attained on mental health dimension. Furthermore, Cholesterol, SGOT, SGPT, B.U.N, Crattinine, Uric acid and blood sugar were significantly decreased. As for body composition, fat mass and waist-hip-ratio were significantly reduced, while for physical fitness, muscular strength endurance and cardiorespiratory endurance were much improved among participants. The results suggest well-designed health self-management activities can reduce unhealthy habit and improve mental and physical health status. Furthermore, it can serve as one important component of health promotion stratigies.

Vliv enterální výživy na průběh Crohnovy choroby / The influence of enteral nutrition on the course of Crohn's diseaseHomzová, Nikola January 2018 (has links)
Introduction: Crohn's disease is an illness of the digestive tract with an uncertain etiology which threatens the nutritional state of patients and in addition to other problems results in a worsening of the disease in reaction to primary treatment. The possibilities of optimizing the nutritional state are several: changing diet, enteral or parenteral nutrition or combination of both. It is necessary to arrange an entirely individual approach for ensuring the highest measure of attention and nutritional effectiveness. Methods: The influence of enteral nutrition was monitored during a course of Crohn's disease. 84 patients with malnutrition and with an active form of Crohn's disease were included in this study. They were divided into 2 groups according to the type and dosage of enteral nutrition. The first group included patients who used partial enteral nutrition in the form of sipping with an energy value of 1200 kcal daily. Patients covered the remaining energy needs with a low-residue diet enriched by soluble fiber. The second group included patients who were given exclusive oligomeric enteral nutrition with a nasojejunal tube for a period of eight weeks. The amount of enteral nutrition in both groups was individually adjusted and calculated, according to the Harris-Benedict equation. The...

EFFECTS OF CURCUMIN AND FENUGREEK SOLUBLE FIBER SUPPLEMENTS ON SUBMAXIMAL AND MAXIMAL AEROBIC PERFORMANCE INDICES IN UNTRAINED COLLEGE-AGED SUBJECTSGoh Zhong Sheng, Jensen 01 January 2019 (has links)
Submaximal exercise performance is, in part, limited by the accumulation of metabolic byproducts and energy system capacities. Curcumin and the combination of curcumin and fenugreek soluble fiber (CurQfen®) have been shown to increase endogenous antioxidants and metabolic byproduct clearance as well as reduce inflammation and lipid peroxidation, and therefore, may enhance submaximal aerobic thresholds. In addition, there is evidence that the galactomannan component of fenugreek, used to enhance bioavailability of curcumin, may also have potential physiological effects related to the up regulation of free fatty acid oxidation Therefore, the purpose of this study was to examine the effects of curcumin and fenugreek soluble fiber supplementation on the ventilatory threshold (VT), respiratory compensation point (RCP), maximal oxygen consumption (O2 peak), and time to exhaustion (Tlim)derived from a graded exercise test (GXT). Forty-five untrained, college-aged, male (n = 24) and female (n = 21) subjects (mean age ± SD: 21.2 ± 2.5 yr) were randomly assigned to one of three supplementation groups; placebo (PLA, n=13), 500 mg·day-1 CurQfen® (CUR, n=14), or 300 mg·day-1 fenugreek soluble fiber (FEN, n=18). All of the subjects completed a maximal GXT on a cycle ergometer to determine the VT, RCP, O2 peak, and Tlim before (PRE) and after (POST) 28 days of daily supplementation. The VT and RCP were determined from the V-slope method for the ventilation (E)vs. O2 and E vs. CO2, respectively. Separate, one-way ANCOVAs were used to examine the between group differences for adjusted POST VT, RCP, O2 peak, and Tlim values, with the respective PRE test value as the covariate. The adjusted POST VT-O2 for the CUR (mean ± SD= 1.593 ± 0.157 L·min-1) and FEN (1.597 ± 0.157L·min-1) groups were greater than (p= 0.04 and p= 0.03, respectively) the PLA (1.465 ± 0.155L·min-1) group, but the FEN and CUR groups were not different (p = 0.94). The one-way ANCOVAs for RCP (F = 3.177, p = 0.052), O2 peak (F = 0.613, p = 0.547), and Tlim (F = 0.654, p = 0.525) indicated there were no significant differences among groups. These findings suggested that CurQfen® and/or fenugreek soluble fiber may improve submaximal, but not maximal, aerobic performance indices in untrained subjects.

Nutritional Intervention in Elderly People Admitted to Resident HomesWikby, Kerstin January 2006 (has links)
The aim was to investigate the effects of an intervention, based on education given to staff and implementation of an individualized nutritional programme given to the residents, to compare assessments on admission with a previous study, and to perform diagnostic test and inter-rater reliability of the Mini Nutritional Assessment (MNA). A further aim was to identify and describe factors with regard to appetite among the residents. Upon admission, and after a four month intervention period, residents were classified as being either protein energy malnourished (PEM), or not, based on anthropometry and biochemical measurements. On both occasions, the Activity Index and the Mini Mental State Examination were used. In order to identify individuals in need of nutritional care, the MNA was performed. Information about medical data was obtained. A total of 127 residents were consecutively admitted to eight resident homes in a municipality in Sweden. Three resident homes constituted the experimental unit (n = 68) and five the control unit (n = 59). Fifteen residents were interviewed using a qualitative method, to investigate what affects their appetite. On admission 32 % of the residents were classified as PEM, which was similar to in the previous study. A higher frequency of residents in the present study had severe medical diseases and cognitive impairment, compared with the previous study, indicating changed admission criteria in the present study. Between the experimental and the control groups, no differences were seen in any specific anthropometric or biochemical variable. Within the groups, statistically significant differences were seen, as the number of PEM residents in the experimental group decreased, and motor activity and overall cognitive function improved. In the control group, motor activity deteriorated. This indicates that the intervention improved nutritional status and functional capacity in the residents. Diagnostic sensitivity was 73 % regarding MNA versus PEM, and 89 % regarding MNA short form (MNA-SF) versus MNA, which indicates a rather high degree of sensitivity in both tests. Inter-rater reliability of MNA, carried out by simultaneous assessments by registered nurses and researcher showed a moderate agreement of 62 % (kappa 0.41). The interview study showed that the willingness to eat was what affected the residents´ appetite. The willingness to eat contains internal factors, dependent on mood and personal values, as well as external factors, dependent on wholesomeness, food, eating environment and meal fellowship. When planning and realizing residents´ nutritional care, factors affecting the residents´ appetite have to be taken into consideration. In conclusion, the results show that it is important to implement and develop strategies for individual nutritional care, in order to prevent and treat malnutrition in elderly people, which is in line with recommendations given by the European Society of Parenteral and Enteral Nutrition (ESPEN) and with the Swedish goal of nursing actions.

Previous issue date: 2010-12-14 / Outras / This study aims to identify cardiovascular risk factors and the impact of nutritional intervention in the industrial sector workers in Greater Metropolitan Belém, Pará, companies accredited to the Workers' Food Program (WFP). We studied 97 employees of the Experimental group (ExpG) and 90 control group (GCON), were included in the randomization workers showed that cardiovascular risk factors for elevated waist circumference (WC). Participated in the randomization of 18 workers and 20 ExpG GCON. For the randomization tests, we used the paired Student t test and Wilcoxon test. Anthropometric variables were identified as Body Mass Index (BMI) and WC, blood levels of cholesterol, triglycerides and glucose levels and socioeconomic characteristics, and used the chi-square test for evaluating the results. The analysis of food consumption was made by means of food frequency questionnaire using a methodology based on the level of consumption: <0.33. Food consumption low,> 0.33 and <0.66 average consumption of food;> 0.66 Food consumption high. It was identified a young population, most living with a partner, with family incomes from 1 to 2 minimum wages, having completed high school. Before the dietary intervention was observed anthropometric findings with a high prevalence of overweight and high levels of lipid fractions in GExp and GCON. The consumption of foods considered cardiovascular risk was high when compared to consumption of foods considered protective in GExp and GCON. The characteristics found related to lifestyle were the improvement in the practice of smoking revealed a low percentage of smokers and former smokers, moderate, moderate to high alcohol consumption and low frequency of physical activity in both groups. After randomization the GCON showed only one variable with significant difference and there is a decrease in systolic blood pressure. In the analysis of anthropometric findings were observed high prevalence of overweight and high levels of lipid fractions in both groups before the intervention and significant improvement of nutritional values in the intervention group nutrition. In the experimental group, there was a significant difference in three variables: the average decrease in BMI, HDL cholesterol increased, demonstrating an apparent improvement after intervention and LDL cholesterol and a decrease of the mean, ie, demonstrating beneficial effects of the action guideline the group of workers ExpG. There was a decrease in CC ExpG signaling a decrease in an important risk factor for developing cardiovascular disease does so with GCON. The action of nutritional intervention results showed significant improvements for the group that was submitted when associated with the control group, confirming that the nutrition education strategy proposed in the TSP, it has practical effects of positive health worker. / Este estudo tem por objetivo identificar os fatores de riscos cardiovasculares e o impacto da intervenção nutricional em trabalhadores do setor industrial na Região Metropolitana de Belém-Pará, de empresas credenciadas ao Programa de Alimentação do Trabalhador (PAT). Foram estudados 97 trabalhadores do Grupo Experimento (GEXP) e 90 do Grupo Controle (GCON), sendo incluídos na randomização trabalhadores que apresentaram fatores de risco cardiovascular elevados para Circunferência de Cintura(CC). Participaram da randomização 18 trabalhadores do GEXP e 20 do GCON. Para análises da randomização, foi utilizado o teste t de Student pareado e o teste de Wilcoxon. Foram identificadas variáveis antropométricas como Índice de Massa Corporal (IMC) e CC, níveis sanguíneos de colesterol, triglicerídeos e glicemia e características socioeconômicas, sendo usado o teste Qui-quadrado para avaliação dos resultados. A análise do consumo alimentar foi feita por meio de questionário de frequência alimentar utilizando a metodologia baseada no nível de consumo:< 0,33. Alimento de consumo baixo; >0,33 e <0,66 alimento de consumo médio; >0,66 Alimento de consumo elevado. Foi identificado uma população jovem, a maioria residindo com companheiro, com renda familiar de 1 a 2 salários mínimos, possuindo ensino médio completo. Antes da intervenção nutricional foi observado resultados antropométricos com alta prevalência de excesso de peso e índices elevados de frações lipídicas no GEXP e GCON. O consumo de alimentos considerados de risco cardiovascular foi elevado quando comparado ao consumo de alimentos considerados protetores no GEXP e GCON. As características encontradas relacionadas ao estilo de vida foram: a melhoria na prática do tabagismo revelando um percentual baixo de fumante e um moderado de ex-fumantes, moderado a alto consumo de álcool e baixa freqüência de atividade física nos dois grupos. Após a randomização o GCON apresentou apenas uma variável com diferença significativa, verificando-se diminuição da pressão arterial sistólica, podendo ser atribuída a Síndrome do Jaleco Branco, presença do profissional de saúde associada a elevação de pressão arterial. Na análise dos resultados antropométricos foram observados alta prevalência de excesso de peso e índices elevados de frações lipídicas nos dois grupos antes da intervenção nutricional. No grupo experimental, verificou-se a diferença significativa em três variáveis: diminuição da média do IMC, aumento do colesterol HDL, demonstrando aparente melhora após intervenção e o colesterol LDL, com a diminuição da média, ou seja, demonstrando efeitos benéficos da ação orientadora para o grupo de trabalhadores do GEXP. Houve diminuição CC no GEXP sinalizando uma diminuição de um fator de risco importante para desenvolvimento de doenças cardiovascular o mesmo não acontecendo com o GCON. A ação de intervenção nutricional apresentou resultados importantes de melhorias para o grupo a que foi submetido quando associado ao grupo controle, confirmando que a estratégia de educação nutricional proposta no PAT, tem efeitos práticos positivos para a saúde do trabalhador.

Estudo de intervenção nutricional aleatorizado em adultos com sobrepeso em Unidade Básica de Saúde. / Randomized nutritional intervention trial in overweight adults at a Primary Health Care Center.Sartorelli, Daniela Saes 07 February 2003 (has links)
Ensaio clínico aleatorizado conduzido para avaliar o impacto de intervenção intensiva para mudança de estilo de vida em indivíduos com sobrepeso em um Centro de Saúde-Escola em São José do Rio Preto, Estado de São Paulo, Brasil. Dos 259 voluntários (203 mulheres e 56 homens; idade entre 25 e 72 anos) que concordaram em participar do estudo, 104 foram elegíveis (83 mulheres e 21 homens), sendo distribuídos aleatoriamente em dois grupos: grupo intervenção (10 homens e 41 mulheres), com acompanhamento nutricional individualizado, e grupo controle (11 homens e 42 mulheres), que receberam somente orientações gerais e folheto explicativo sobre estilo de vida saudável. A avaliação da composição corporal, indicadores bioquímicos, consumo alimentar e estilo de vida - incluindo-se a prática de atividades físicas, foi realizada no princípio, após 6 meses e 1 ano de estudo. A intervenção nutricional consistiu de incentivo ao consumo de frutas, vegetais, óleo de oliva e produtos lácteos pobres em gordura, associados com a redução do consumo de gorduras saturadas e doces, bem como o estímulo à prática de atividades físicas por pelo menos 30 minutos ao dia. O programa de intervenção mostrou-se efetivo na redução do consumo de calorias, gorduras totais, gorduras saturadas, colesterol, freqüência de carnes, óleos/gorduras e doces. Além disso, observamos um incremento no consumo de fibra total da dieta, fibras de frutas e vegetais, ß-caroteno, vitamina A, cálcio, freqüência de consumo de frutas em geral, vegetais em geral, vegetais verde escuros e leite/derivados. O programa mostrou-se viável em unidades básicas de saúde e efetivo na redução de peso, índice de massa corporal, pressão arterial, colesterol total, LDL colesterol, ácido úrico, homocisteína, aumento da prática de atividades físicas, contribuindo para a melhoria da qualidade de vida no grupo intervenção. / Randomized Nutritional Intervention trial was carried out to evaluate the impact of intensive intervention in changing life style of overweight adults attending at a primary health care in São José do Rio Preto, São Paulo State, Brazil. Of the 259 volunteers (203 women and 56 men; 25 to 72 years old) that agreed in participating in the study, 104 were eligible (83 women and 21 men), and were randomly allocated in two groups: Nutrition Counseling group (42 women, 11 men) with individualized dietary counseling, and Control Group (41 women, 10 men) who recieved only general information and leaflets about healthy life style. The assessment of body composition, biochemical indicators, food consumption and life style including practice of physical activity were carried out at baseline, 6 months and 1 year. The dietary interventions included increased intake of fruits, vegetables, olive oil and skimmed dairy products, together with reduced intake of saturated fat and sweets, as well as instructions for regular practice of physical activity for at least 30 minutes per day. The intervention program demonstrated to be effective in reducing consumption of calories, total fat, saturated fat, cholesterol, and frequency of meets, fats/oils and sweet groups. Moreover, we observed an increment in the consumption of dietary fiber, fiber of fruits and vegetables, ß-carotene, vitamin A, calcium, and in the frequency of fruits, vegetables, dark green vegetables and dairy products. The program demonstrated to be feasible at a primary health care unit and was effective in reducing weight, body mass index, blood pressure, total cholesterol, LDL cholesterol, uric acid, homocysteine, and improved the physical activity level and quality of life in the intervention group.

Programa nutricional entre atletas competitivos : perfil e mudanças alimentares após aconselhamento nutricionalNascimento, Marcus Vinicius Santos do 02 July 2015 (has links)
The Bolsa Atleta program is the biggest athletes sponsorship program, however no study evaluated the dietary intake these athletes. This study was divided into two stages. The first aimed to compare the eating habits and the dietary intake of male and female athletes, while the second evaluated the effect of a nutrition intervention on body composition, nutritional intake, nutrition knowledge and dietary habits of athletes. Eighty athletes participated in the first stage of the study, being 47 male and 33 female. A 24-hour recall was applied to evaluate athletes dietary intake. Both groups showed a high inadequacy in caloric intake. Men were more inadequate in protein and saturated fat intake, while women showed a higher percentage of inadequacy in monounsaturated fat. Both groups showed a high inadequacy in vitamin A, E, D and calcium intake. Men were more inadequate in vitamin C and sodium, while women had a higher inadequacy in vitamin B12, B3, magnesium, folate, phosphorus, and five times more probability of inadequate iron intake. Women had a more inadequate intake of fruit, meat, and Low adequacy of pre and post workout meals. Athletes of both sexes present inadequacies on dietary intake, however, these were higher among women.In the second stage of the study, 32 athletes, 21 adults and 11 adolescents received nutritional counseling and were analyzed separately. After follow-up, both groups had increased body mass and lean mass and adolescents increased arm muscle area. There was an increase in the number of meals and reduction in the range and the omission of the them in adolescents. Both groups increased the adequacy of pre and post workout meals and nutrition knowledge. Teenagers increased their water intake after the intervention. Both groups showed a high prevalence of positive effects on energy intake, nutrients and food portions. The nutritional counselling has been effective in promoting beneficial changes on the athlete´s nutritional knowledge, their body composition, and their dietary intake, however, the overall effect was greater in the adolescents than in the adults. / O programa bolsa atleta é o maior programa de patrocínio de atletas do mundo, no entanto nenhum trabalho avaliou a alimentação desses atletas.O presente trabalho foi dividido em duas etapas. A primeira teve o objetivo de comparar os hábitos alimentares e o perfil nutricional entre atletas do sexo masculino e feminino, enquanto a segunda avaliou o efeito de uma intervenção nutricional sobre a composição corporal, a ingestão dietética e o conhecimento em nutrição dos atletas. Oitenta atletas participaram da primeira etapa do trabalho, sendo 47 homens e 33 mulheres. Para avaliação da alimentação foi aplicado um recordatório de 24 horas. As atletas do sexo feminino estavam mais inadequadas quanto à ingestão hídrica no treino e refeições pré e pós-treino. Ambos os grupos apresentaram uma elevada prevalência de inadequações nos grupos de hortaliças, leite e derivados, açúcares e doces e óleos e gorduras, no entanto, as mulheres estavam mais inadequadas quanto à ingestão de frutas e carnes e ovos. Os homens apresentaram maior ingestão nutricional e alimentar do que as mulheres. Ambos os grupos apresentaram uma elevada inadequação em micronutrientes, estando as mulheres mais inadequadas em vitaminas do complexo B e ferro. Os atletas de ambos os gêneros apresentaram inadequações nutricionais, no entanto, essas foram maiores entre as mulheres. Na segunda etapa do estudo, 32 atletas, sendo 21 adultos e 11 adolescentes receberam acompanhamento nutricional e foram analisados separadamente. Após o acompanhamento, ambos os grupos tiveram aumento da massa corporal e da massa magra e os adolescentes aumentaram a área muscular do braço. Foi observado um aumento do número de refeições e redução no intervalo e na omissão das mesmas nos adolescentes. Os adolescentes aumentaram a ingestão hídrica diária e no treino após a intervenção. Ambos os grupos apresentaram uma elevada prevalência de efeitos positivos na ingestão de energia, nutrientes e porções alimentares, além de terem aumentado o nível de conhecimento em nutrição. O acompanhamento nutricional proporcionou uma melhora na alimentação, na composição corporal e no nível de conhecimento em nutrição dos atletas, no entanto, esses efeitos foram maiores nos adolescentes.
