Por otro lado, el valor agregado que se ofrece es brindar un producto que no existe en el mercado peruano y que será de gran ayuda para el dog lover, ya que al ser líquido y no en forma de croqueta, es de fácil consumo para el can. Asimismo, podrá pedirlo mediante delivery en caso no desee acudir a sitios concurridos debido al nuevo estilo de vida por el Covid-19. / Our business idea arises from the dog lover's need to provide his dog with a balanced and nutritious diet, which often cannot be achieved without the use of a food supplement, which only exists in the Peruvian market in the form of kibble. What we are looking for is to serve these customers with a new option. Sanson Drink is a drinkable food supplement for dogs, which facilitates the proper functioning of the kidneys, gives them energy and vitality, achieving in turn, to maintain a strong and shiny fur. The food supplement has an eye-catching design and can be obtained in person at the point of sale or by delivery by making the request through the Sanson Drink website, which will show the benefits of the product and the ingredients that make it up. The product will be advertised through social networks such as Facebook, Instagram and Tik Tok, due to its low cost and high impact on the consumer. On the other hand, the added value offered is to provide a product that does not exist in the Peruvian market and that will be of great help to the dog lover, since it is liquid and not in the form of kibble, it is easy for the dog to consume. Also, it can be ordered by delivery in case you do not want to go to crowded places due to the new lifestyle of the Covid-19. / Trabajo de investigación

La prise en charge nutritionnelle des patients lors d’une chirurgie cardiaque a fait l’objet d’un nombre limité d’études. Ainsi, les lignes directrices de l’approche ERACS (Enhanced Recovery After Cardiac Surgery) n’incluent pas de recommandations nutritionnelles qui sont appuyées par des données probantes. L’objectif du mémoire est de présenter l’évolution nutritionnelle périopératoire des patients dans un cadre de soins inspiré par l’approche ERAS et les recommandations nutritionnelles d’ESPEN (European Society for Clinical Nutrition and Metabolism). Cet objectif a été poursuivi lors d’une étude observationnelle prospective qui a inclus une collecte de données médicales, notamment l’adhésion à certaines recommandations ERACS, et nutritionnelles, soit une évaluation nutritionnelle préopératoire, l’observation des apports alimentaires postopératoires et l’adhésion aux suppléments nutritionnels oraux. L’évolution clinique de 43 patients de l’Institut de cardiologie de Montréal a été étudiée. Le taux de dénutrition préopératoire, déterminé selon l’Évaluation Globale Subjective, était de 11,6%. L’adhésion à deux recommandations ERACS prédéterminées, soit l’éducation et l’optimisation nutritionnelle préopératoire, était insuffisante pour l’ensemble de l’échantillon. Les apports alimentaires moyens du 1er au 4e jour postopératoire étaient insuffisants comparativement aux recommandations nutritionnelles d’ESPEN. Cependant, 41% des patients avaient des apports en calories et en protéines ≥70% de leurs besoins estimés. La consommation de suppléments nutritionnels oraux a permis d’optimiser les apports nutritionnels. Cette étude est, à notre connaissance, la première à décrire une prise en charge nutritionnelle préopératoire et postopératoire dans le cadre de l’approche ERACS. Les facteurs de risques pouvant expliquer les apports nutritionnels insuffisants, tels que le sexe et les antécédents médicaux, sont explorés. Des suggestions pour optimiser la prise en charge nutritionnelle des patients sont proposées, notamment l’amélioration du dépistage nutritionnel préopératoire et l’enrichissement du menu, ainsi que des pistes de recherche qui pourront être développées dans de futurs travaux. / Nutritional care of cardiac surgery patients has been scarcely studied. Currently, the ERACS (Enhanced Recovery After Cardiac Surgery) guidelines do not include high quality evidence-based nutritional recommendations. The aim of this dissertation is to present patients’ nutritional evolution in a care setting inspired by an ERACS approach and ESPEN (European Society for Clinical Nutrition and Metabolism) nutritional recommendations. This aim was pursued through an observational prospective study that included a collection of medical data, namely adherence to a number of ERACS recommendations, and nutritional information comprising preoperative nutritional status evaluation, observation of postoperative oral intakes and adherence to oral nutritional supplements. The clinical evolution of 43 Montreal Heart Institute patients was investigated. Malnutrition rates prior to surgery, as evaluated by the Subjective Global Assessment, was 11.6%. Adherence to preoperative nutritional education and optimisation, two predetermined ERACS recommendations, was insufficient for the overall sample. Mean oral intakes from postoperative day 1 to 4 were insufficient, compared to ESPEN nutritional recommendations. However, 41% of patients had calorie and protein intakes ≥ 70% of their estimated requirements. Consumption of oral nutritional supplements lead to higher nutritional intakes. To our knowledge, this study is the first to present patients’ preoperative and postoperative nutritional care within an ERACS pathway. Risk factors associated with insufficient nutritional intakes, such as sex and medical history, are discussed. Suggestions to optimize patients’ nutritional care are presented, namely improvement in preoperative nutritional screening and the addition of enriched foods to the menu, as are research topics that should be further investigated.

This study was undertaken with the objective of assessing whether the ingestion of a Multivitamin Complex with Calcium and Magnesium would be efficacious in reducing stress. Tlrree hundred subjects who were suffering from stress were selected in Gauteng and Kwa-Zulu Natal, South Africa. The selection was based on a stress questionnaire. The subjects took a battery of tests and questionnaires to assess the level ofthe stress they were experiencing. A 30 day supply of effeiVescent tablets was given to all subjects - half placebos and half the vitamin supplement. These were randomly allocated. At the end of30 days a further battery oftests were administered. The results were statistically analysed. It was found that both the placebo and the vitamin supplement proved beneficial but the Multivitamin Complex with Calcium and Magnesium had a greater effect in reducing and helping to manage stress. / Psychology / M.A. (Psychology)

Ce projet découle du Canadian Sport Centre Dietary Study qui avait pour objectif d’évaluer les habitudes de consommation de suppléments alimentaires chez les athlètes canadiens et de déterminer si des différences régionales existaient. Un nombre de sujets était prédéterminé pour chaque province en considération du nombre d’athlètes identifiés comme Excellence, Élite ou Relève par les Centres d’entraînement nationaux et les organismes gouvernementaux. Pour ce mémoire, seules les données associées aux athlètes du Québec ont été considérées. Quarante-trois athlètes ont répondu à un questionnaire sur l’utilisation des suppléments alimentaires, 71 ont fourni un journal alimentaire de trois jours et 42 parmi ces derniers ont remis les deux documents. La prévalence d’utilisation des suppléments alimentaires était de 90,7%. Les utilisateurs consommaient en moyenne 3,35 produits différents, particulièrement des boissons énergétiques (48,8%), des multivitamines-minéraux (37,2%), des produits de santé naturels (37,2%) et des suppléments de protéines en poudre (34,9%). Les athlètes souhaitaient maintenir leur santé (27,9%) et améliorer leur niveau d’énergie (27,9%) ou leur récupération (25,6%). Les sources d’information citées étaient les entraîneurs physiques (25,6%), la famille ou les amis (16,3%) et les coéquipiers (16,3%). Les sujets se procuraient ces produits dans les épiceries (16,3%), les pharmacies (14,0%) et les magasins spécialisés (9,3%). Soixante-dix pour cent des sujets croyaient que l’arrêt de l’utilisation des suppléments alimentaires n’aurait aucun impact sur leurs performances ou ne savaient pas comment cela les influencerait. Ils démontraient un vif intérêt au sujet de l’efficacité (69,8%), la légalité (55,8%) et la sécurité (53,5%) de ces produits. Des sujets qui utilisaient un supplément de protéines, 81% présentaient un apport alimentaire supérieur à leurs besoins. L’utilisation de suppléments de multivitaminesminéraux permettait de combler l’apport insuffisant en calcium et en folate, mais pas en potassium. Nos résultats soulignent que ces utilisateurs présentaient des apports dépassant l’apport maximal tolérable pour le sodium, le magnésium, la niacine, le folate, la vitamine A et le fer. Nous pouvons donc conclure que ces deux types de suppléments alimentaires n’étaient pas utilisés d’une façon pertinente. / This project derives from the Canadian Sport Centre Dietary Study. The purpose of this global research project consisted in studying the consumption habits of Canadians elite athletes towards dietary supplements and evaluating if regional differences could be identified. The number of subjects needed for each province was calculated from the number of athletes identified as Excellence, Elite or Releve by the Canadian Sports Centres and governmental organisms. Only subjects from Québec had been considered for this research work. Forty three subjects completed the questionnaire on dietary supplement consumption habits, 71 filled a three day food diary and 42 of them returned both documents. Results showed that dietary supplements were used by 90.7% of our sample. Users were consuming an average of 3.35 different types of dietary supplements, mostly sports drinks (48.8%), multivitamins-minerals (37.2%) and protein powders (34.5%). Reasons behind the use of supplements were: to stay healthy (27.9%), to raise energy level (27.9%) and to accelerate recovery (25.6%). Athletes were getting their information from physical trainers (25.6%), family members or friends (16.3%) and teammates (16.3%). Dietary supplements were bought in grocery stores (16.3%), drug stores (14.0%) and specialised stores (9.3%). Seventy percent of our sample thought that stopping the use of dietary supplement would have no impact on their performance level or had no idea of the impact it could have. Nevertheless, participants showed a clear interest concerning the efficiency (69.8%), legality (55.8%) and safety (53.5%) of dietary supplements. Eighty one percent of the subjects who were using protein supplements had dietary intakes above their needs for that nutrient. The use of multivitamin-mineral supplements compensated for inadequate intakes in calcium and folic acid, but not in potassium. This investigation showed that multivitamin-mineral users had dietary intakes above the Upper Intake Levels for sodium, magnesium, niacin, folic acid, vitamin A and iron. From these results, we can conclude, in this athlete population, that protein and multivitamin-mineral supplements were not required or used adequately.

No. of bitstreams: 1 Marianne de Oliveira Falco.pdf: 1327193 bytes, checksum: f2c63ea5da2350c16f08f39b5e787803 (MD5) Previous issue date: 2011-12-16 / Objective: To assess the available scientific knowledge on the effect of nutritional treatment abnormality metabolic in adult patients living with Aids in the use of HAART and adherence of nutritional/diet therapy. Methods: A systematic review of literature was conducted through a search protocol developed by the authors: articles were searched in Pubmed, Lilacs and Cochrane, between 1996 and 2010, of the type: controlled clinical trial, randomized or crossover; were adults, living with HIV/Aids under anti-retroviral therapy showing no opportunistic diseases. The intervention of interest was oral nutritional supplementation and/or lifestyle changes through specific nutritional therapy: dyslipidaemia, insulin resistance, lipodystrophy and systemic arterial hypertension. For qualitative classification of the articles we used the Jadad scale. The clinical trials, was controlled, randomized, open label, with a target population of adults with Aids in antiretroviral therapy and without opportunistic diseases. In the study on adherence was held randomized controlled trial and open. Among the 165 patients randomly assigned to two treatment groups for nutritional / dietary. The group treatment 1 (T1) and Treatment 2 (T2) received nutrition care, and the stage of nutritional diagnosis performed similarly in both groups and with service until completing treatment. With respect to conduct diet therapy groups (T1) and (T2)received nutritional counseling, group T2 also received individualized dietary plan. The groups had returns quaterly (T1) and monthly (T2). We considered dietary before and after the intervention and attendance at meetings as parameters of adherence to treatment. Results: In a systematic review 385 papers were found and seven met the inclusion criteria. The interventions applied in such studies were: diet plus physical exercises, diet plus supplement and only supplements. Dyslipidaemia was the common outcome to all studies. The studies assessing supplementation with omega 3 found significant reduction on triglycerides. Specific diet plus omega 3 supplementation showed an increase on HDL cholesterol. Supplementation with chromo nycotinate showed no effect on dyslipidaemia. Lifestyle modification,including diet and physical activity, drastically reduced the waist circumference, lipodystrophy and systolic arterial pressure. In the clinical trial among 165 patients in the study were 83 T1 and 82 T2. At the end of 7,3 months, 20% patients dropped out of the nutrition therapy. The T1 and T2 groups showed no significant difference in relation to socio demographic parameters. 15,63% of group T2 reached the goal considered optimal for adhesion while 42.65% of group T1 were 100% adherence to queries. The T1 and T2 groups showed a reduction to the risk of food consumption, increased consumption of protective foods, increased fractioning meals in T2 group. Conclusion: In the systematic review by lowering triglycerides with omega 3 supplementation was the greatest nutritional intervention with scientific evidence. Prescription diet seems to be the most appropriate intervention to increase HDL. Still can not make inferences about the nutritional treatment of total cholesterol, LDL and insulin resistance. In the study of adherence, there were no differences between groups T1and T2, in relation to adherence and in relation to the goals of food consumption. / Objetivo: Avaliar o conhecimento científico disponível sobre o efeito do tratamento nutricional nas alterações metabólicas em pacientes com Aids e a adesão destes ao serviço de Nutrição e ao tratamento nutricional/dietoterápico. Métodos: Para revisão sistemática, conduziu-se revisão sistemática de literatura por meio de protocolo de busca nas bases de dados: Pubmed, LIlacs e Cochrane, entre 1996 e 2010, do tipo ensaio clínico, controlado, randomizado, crossover, sendo a população alvo: adultos, vivendo com HIV/Aids, em uso de terapia anti-retroviral e sem doenças oportunistas. A intervenção de interesse foi suplementação nutricional via oral e/ou mudança de estilo de vida através de tratamento dietoterápico específico: dislipidemia, resistência insulínica, lipodistrofia e hipertensão arterial sistêmica. Para o estudo de adesão realizou-se ensaio clínico controlado, randomizado e aberto. Cento e sessenta e cinco adultos com Aids em uso de TARV, alocados aleatoriamente em dois grupos para tratamento nutricional/dietoterápico. Os grupos Tratamento1(T1) e Tratamento 2 (T2) receberam consulta de nutrição, sendo a etapa de diagnóstico nutricional realizada de mesma forma em ambos os grupos e com atendimento até completar o tratamento. Os grupos (T1) e (T2) receberam orientações nutricionais, o grupo T2 recebeu ainda plano alimentar individualizado. O grupo T1 tinha agendamento de retornos trimestrais e o T2 mensal. Consideraram-se repercussões dietéticas após a intervenção e assiduidade às reuniões como parâmetros de adesão ao tratamento. Resultados: Na revisão sistemática, após localizar 385 artigos, sete foram incluídos. As intervenções utilizadas nesses estudos foram: dieta, dieta mais exercício físico, dieta mais suplemento e somente suplementos. Dislipidemia foi desfecho avaliado em todos os estudos. Os estudos que avaliaram suplementação com ômega 3 encontraram redução significativa dos triglicérides. Dieta específica mais suplementação de ômega 3 mostrou aumento de HDL-colesterol. Suplementação com nicotinato de cromo não teve efeito sobre a dislipidemia. Modificação de estilo de vida reduziu, significativamente a circunferência da cintura, lipodistrofia e pressão arterial sistólica. No ensaio clínico dentre os 165 pacientes incluídos no estudo 83 receberam o T1 e 82 o T2. Ao final de 7,3 meses, 20% pacientes desistiram do tratamento nutricional. 15,63% dos pacientes do grupo T2 e 42,65% do grupo T2 atingiram a meta considerada ótima para adesão. Os grupos T1 e T2 apresentaram redução para o consumo de alimento de risco, aumento do consumo de alimentos de proteção, aumento e no fracionamento das refeições no grupo. Conclusão: Na revisão sistemática a redução de triglicérides pela suplementação com ômega 3 foi a intervenção nutricional com maiores evidências científicas. A prescrição de dieta parece ser a intervenção mais adequada para aumentar HDL. Ainda não é possível fazer inferências sobre o tratamento nutricional do colesterol total, LDL e resistência insulínica. No estudo de adesão, não houve diferenças entre os grupos T1 e T2, em relação à adesão às consultas analisada pela assiduidade e em relação às metas de consumo alimentar avaliada pelas modificações de hábitos alimentares.
