Facilitators and Barriers to Traditional Food Consumption in the Cree Community of Mistissini, Northern Quebec
To identify barriers to traditional food consumption and factors that facilitate it among the Cree community of Mistissini, a series of four focus groups was conducted with a total of twenty-three people. Two ecological models were created, one for facilitating factors and a second for obstacles, illustrating the role of numerous interconnected influences of traditional food consumption. Environmental impact project, laws and regulation, local bu…
Consumption patterns of sweetened food and drink products in a Catholic Middle Eastern Canadian community
Objective The present study describes the consumption patterns of sweetened food and drink products in a Catholic Middle Eastern Canadian community and examines its associations with physical activity, sedentary behaviours and BMI. Design A two-stage cross-sectional design was used. In Stage 1 ( n 42), 24 h recalls enabled the identification of sweetened products. In Stage 2 ( n 192), an FFQ was administered to measure the daily consumption of th…
Psychosocial Correlates of Body Mass Index in Four Groups of Quebec Adults
The objective of the present analysis was to study the associations between body weight psychosocial correlates and body mass index (BMI) among four groups of adults in the Quebec population. Data were taken from the Social Lifestyles and Health 1998 Survey performed by the Institut de la Statistique du Québec (ISQ). The suggested guidelines of the ISQ were used to estimate the population's proportions and for statistical analysis. The groups stu…
Are snacking patterns associated with risk of overweight among Kahnawake schoolchildren
Objective To understand more specifically how the quality, quantity and frequency of snack food consumption differs in different BMI categories. Design Four hundred and forty-nine school-aged children (grade 4–6) from a Kanien’kehaka (Mohawk) community provided a 24 h recall and their height and weight in 1994, 1998 and 2002, in three independent cross-sectional samples. Food consumed between two consecutive meals was defined as a snacking occasi…
Multilevel modelling of sociodemographic predictors of various levels of anaemia among women in Mali
Objective Anaemia currently affects 40–80 % of women in Africa. While risk factors for anaemia have been intensively studied, research has rarely compared risk factors between mild anaemia and moderate/severe anaemia. Also, the contribution of neighbourhood to the prevalence of anaemia has been rarely studied. The aim of the present study was to identify and compare individual and contextual factors associated with various levels of anaemia among…
Unique patterns of dietary adequacy in three cultures of Canadian Arctic indigenous peoples
Background Information is needed on dietary adequacy of Arctic indigenous populations in Canada. Extensive work has been completed on composition of Arctic food and food use, and dietary reference intakes are available. Objective To complete the first comprehensive dietary adequacy assessment of three populations of adult Arctic indigenous people. Setting and subjects Dietary assessment interviews were conducted with randomly selected indigenous …
Is obesity related to the type of dietary fatty acids? An ecological study
Background Animal studies and a few clinical trials lend credibility to the hypothesis that not all types of fatty acids carry the same potential for weight gain. Only a few epidemiological studies concerning this issue are currently available and results are conflicting. Aim The purpose of the present ecological study was to test the existence of an association between obesity prevalence and the types of fat available in 168 countries. Methods D…
Identification of Barriers and Facilitators of Healthy Food Choices Among Children Aged 6 to 12 Years
This study aimed to identify barriers and facilitators of healthy food choices among children aged 6 to 12 years in Kahnawake, and help orienting Kahnawake School Diabetes Prevention Project (KSDPP) to improve the diet of the children. A series of four focus groups with a total of 15 people was conducted with mothers of children enrolled in one of the two intervention schools. Comments were analyzed verbatim by content analysis. Results showed th…
Arctic Indigenous Peoples Experience the Nutrition Transition with Changing Dietary Patterns and Obesity
Correlates of diet quality in the Quebec population
Objective: To determine the correlates of a high-fat diet in urban, suburban and rural areas of Quebec, Canada. Design: A secondary analysis of data collected as part of a 5-year multi-factorial, multi-setting, community-intervention project. Setting: Urban, suburban and rural settings of the province of Quebec, 1997. Subjects: Data were analysed from a sample of 5214 participants (2227 males, 2987 females).

Dietary Change and Traditional Food Systems of Indigenous Peoples
Traditional food systems of indigenous peoples are defined as being composed of items from the local, natural environment that are culturally acceptable. Rapid dietary change of indigenous peoples worldwide is posing threats to use of this food and the traditional knowledge required for traditional food system maintainance. This review describes the many influences on choice of food by indigenous peoples, the qualities of traditional food systems…
Dietary nutrients of Sahtú Dene/Métis vary by food source, season and age
This article reports nutrient intake from traditional and market food of Dene/Metis people from 2 communities of the Canadian sub‐Arctic. Dietary intake was assessed during 2 seasons for children and adult men and during 3 seasons for adult women. A total of 709 24‐hour recalls were evaluated. Dietary nutrient intake is shown to vary by source of food as well as by age, gender and season. Traditional food provides a large proportion of the total …
Contemporary Sahtú Dene/Métis use of traditional and market food
Variation in food and food group intake is defined by traditional and market food sources, season, and age‐group for the Sahtú Dene/Métis in 2 communities in the Canadian sub‐Arctic. Seven hundred and nine 24‐hr recalls were contributed by women, men and children in the communities. In addition, 273 household traditional food frequencies were completed during 3 interview seasons (spring, summer and winter). Land mammals and fish provided a total …
Nutrition and the environment of indigenous peoples
Growth of children and socioeconomic status of Mexican‐American farmworker families in Tulare County, California
Comparison of the size of Mexican‐American children from two samples of farmworker families living in Tulare County, one drawn in 1969 (24 families with 52 children 0–7 years old), the other in 1989 (95 families with 226 children 0–9 years old) reveals a parallel improvement in total family income and physical growth. However, children in families with incomes below 70% of the poverty line in 1989 showed generally lower Z‐scores in weight for age…
