Associations of dietary copper intake with cardiovascular disease and mortality
Our findings demonstrated that excessive dietary copper intake was associated with higher risks of death and cardiovascular diseases in Chinese adults. Further studies in populations with different dietary characteristics are needed to obtain dose-response relationships and to refine global dietary recommendations
Relationship of parental feeding practices and diet with children's diet among South Asians in Canada
Relationship between diet and acculturation among South Asian children living in Canada
Global and Regional Effects of Potentially Modifiable Risk Factors Associated With Acute Stroke in 32 Countries (Interstroke)
Availability, affordability, and consumption of fruits and vegetables in 18 countries across income levels
BACKGROUND: Several international guidelines recommend the consumption of two servings of fruits and three servings of vegetables per day, but their intake is thought to be low worldwide. We aimed to determine the extent to which such low intake is related to availability and affordability. METHODS: We assessed fruit and vegetable consumption using data from country-specific, validated semi-quantitative food frequency questionnaires in the Prospe…
Nutrition labelling, marketing techniques, nutrition claims and health claims on chip and biscuit packages from sixteen countries
Objective Food packages were objectively assessed to explore differences in nutrition labelling, selected promotional marketing techniques and health and nutrition claims between countries, in comparison to national regulations. Design Cross-sectional. Setting Chip and sweet biscuit packages were collected from sixteen countries at different levels of economic development in the EPOCH (Environmental Profile of a Community’s Health) study between …
Relative validity of an FFQ to estimate daily food and nutrient intakes for Chilean adults
Objective FFQ are commonly used to rank individuals by their food and nutrient intakes in large epidemiological studies. The purpose of the present study was to develop and validate an FFQ to rank individuals participating in an ongoing Prospective Urban and Rural Epidemiological (PURE) study in Chile. Design An FFQ and four 24 h dietary recalls were completed over 1 year. Pearson correlation coefficients, energy-adjusted and de-attenuated correl…
Seasonal Variation in Leisure-time Physical Activity Among Canadians
Seasonality impacts physical activity patterns in Canada and varies across the provinces. This needs to be considered in physical activity programming
Childhood obesity, prevalence and prevention
Childhood obesity has reached epidemic levels in developed countries. Twenty five percent of children in the US are overweight and 11% are obese. Overweight and obesity in childhood are known to have significant impact on both physical and psychological health. The mechanism of obesity development is not fully understood and it is believed to be a disorder with multiple causes. Environmental factors, lifestyle preferences, and cultural environmen…
