Nova Science Publishers Inc Childhood Obesity & Health Research
Book SynopsisObesity in children and adolescents is a serious issue with many health and social consequences that often continue into adulthood. Implementing prevention programs and getting a better understanding of treatment for youngsters is important to controlling the obesity epidemic. The term "childhood obesity" may refer to both children and adolescents. Between 5-25 percent of children and teenagers in the United States are obese. As with adults, the prevalence of obesity in the young varies by ethnic group. It is estimated that 5-7 percent of White and Black children are obese, while 12 percent of Hispanic boys and 19 percent of Hispanic girls are obese. Some data indicate that obesity among children is on the increase. The second National Children and Youth Fitness Study found 6-9 year olds to have thicker skinfolds than their counterparts in the 1960s. During the same period, others documented a 54 percent increase in the prevalence of obesity among 6-11 year olds. This book examines leading research in this area of great concern to society.

Nova Science Publishers Inc Frontiers in Nutrition Research
Book SynopsisThe taking in and use of food and other nourishing material by the body. Nutrition is a 3-part process. First, food or drink is consumed. Second, the body breaks down the food or drink into nutrients. Third, the nutrients travel through the bloodstream to different parts of the body where they are used as ''fuel'' and for many other purposes. To give the body proper nutrition, a person has to eat and drink enough of the foods that contain key nutrients. This book examines new research in this field which is belatedly receiving the proper attention.

Basic Health Publications User's Guide to the B-Complex Vitamins: Learn
Book SynopsisThe B-complex vitamins are a family of nutrients that play multifaceted and essential roles in health and preventing disease. They are needed to make and repair DNA and increase energy levels-both key steps for slowing the aging process. Some B vitamins are needed to make mood-enhancing neurotransmitters, such as serotonin, and can have powerful antidepressant benefits. The B vitamin folic acid reduces blood levels of homocysteine, a known risk factor for heart disease, stroke, cancer, and Alzheimer's disease. Vitamin B12 is needed for normal mental function, and low levels can mimic senility. This book explores the remarkable benefits of these and the rest of the B-complex family of vitamins.

Springer-Verlag Berlin and Heidelberg GmbH & Co. KG Diet for Iron Deficiency: Metabolism - Bioavailability - Diagnostics
Book SynopsisAround a quarter of the world's population is affected by iron deficiency, and women of childbearing age as well as children and adolescents are considered a particular risk group. This reference book deals with the latest scientific findings concerning the iron supply of the human organism with natural foods. It dispels the misconception that plant iron is less valuable than animal iron by presenting the absorption of iron from plant foods via a newly discovered metabolic pathway. From this, new points of view can be derived for vegetarians and vegans, who until now have belonged to the risk group. Furthermore, it is dedicated to forward-looking possibilities of diagnosing iron deficiency and describes modern concepts for determining the bioavailability of iron in food. New findings on the biochemistry of iron in brain metabolism, the description of the different reference values of the international professional societies and practical advice for special diets, risk groups and age groups as well as cooking recipes with simple information on iron intake complete the work. The book is aimed at nutritionists and medical practitioners, nutrition and food scientists, dieticians, pharmacists and sports scientists.Table of ContentsIntroduction.- Biochemistry of iron.- Systemic iron homeostasis.- Anemia and iron deficiency.- Diagnosis of iron deficiency states.- The iron requirement.- Bioavailability.- Diet in iron deficiency.- Iron and special diets.- Iron supplementation.

Food & Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) Régimes alimentaires sains et durables: Principes
Book SynopsisCes principes directeurs sont le résultat d'une consultation d'experts dirigée conjointement par la FAO et l'OMS en juillet 2019. Ils adoptent une approche holistique des régimes alimentaires et tiennent compte des recommandations nutritionnelles internationales, du coût environnemental de la production et de la consommation alimentaires ainsi que de la capacité d'adaptation aux contextes sociaux, culturels et économiques locaux. L'expression «alimentation saine et durable» a été convenue au cours de la consultation pour englober les deux dimensions de l'alimentation – durabilité et salubrité. Les régimes alimentaires sains et durables sont des modèles alimentaires qui promeuvent toutes les dimensions de la santé et du bien-être des individus, présentent un faible impact environnemental, sont accessibles, abordables et sont culturellement acceptables. Ils visent le bien-être des individus à toutes les étapes de la vie, pour les générations actuelles et futures. Ils contribuent à prévenir la malnutrition sous toutes ses formes et à réduire les risques de maladies non transmissibles liées à l'alimentation, tout en soutenant la préservation de la biodiversité. Ces principes directeurs soulignent le rôle de la consommation et des régimes alimentaires dans la contribution à la réalisation des objectifs de développement durable (ODD) au niveau des pays, en particulier les objectifs 1 (Pas de pauvreté), 2 (Faim zéro), 3 (Bonne santé et bien-être), 4 (Éducation de qualité), 5 (égalité entre les sexes), 12 (consommation et production responsables) et 13 (action pour le climat). Ils sont transcrits sous forme de messages clairs et non techniques à l'usage des gouvernements et d'autres acteurs impliqués dans la prise de décision politique et la communication.

Auckland University Press The Healthy Country: A History of Life and Death in New Zealand
Book SynopsisIn this book, Alistair Woodward and Tony Blakely tell the extraordinary story of life and death in Aotearoa New Zealand from first Maori settlement to the 21st century. Did Maori or Europeans live longer 1769? How did Pakeha New Zealanders become the healthiest, most long lived people on the face of the globe (and why did Maori not enjoy the same life expectancy)? What caused New Zealanders' health and longevity to be surpassed by other nations in the late twentieth century? Through quantitative analysis, presented in accessible graphics and lively text, the authors answer these questions by analysing the impact of nutrition and disease, immigration and unemployment, alcohol and obesity, medicine and vaccination. The result is a powerful argument about why we live and why we die in this country (and what we might do about it). The Health Country? is important reading for anyone interested in the story of New Zealanders and a decisive intervention in debates about health, disease and medicine.
