Serum micronutrient status, sleep quality and neurobehavioural function among early adolescents
Objective: To examine associations between serum micronutrients and neurobehavioural function and the mediating role of sleep quality in early adolescents. Design: In this cross-sectional study, peripheral blood samples were analysed for Fe and Zn levels. The Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index and Penn Computerized Neurocognitive Battery were used to assess sleep quality and neurobehavioural function, respectively. The logistic/linear regressions and…

Nutrition Environment Measures Surveys evaluated children's food environments. The study protocol involved a feasible time duration, mini…
Children’s food choice process in the home environment. A qualitative descriptive study
Socio-economic status and urbanization are linked to snacks and obesity in adolescents in Botswana

The Nutrition Transition in American Indians
The purpose of this article was to examine whether a nutritional transition has occurred among American Indians (AI) by evaluating related articles and government health statistics. Findings indicate that although the primary health risk for the AI population around 1970 was undernutrition, now there is an obesity epidemic among all age groups that is associated with a loss of traditional food practices and reduced physical activity. Deaths cause…
