Are healthier diets culturally affordable in Africa? evidence from four African countries
In 2023, between 713 and 757 million people experienced hunger globally, with Sub-Saharan Africa facing a prevalence of undernourishment at 20.4%. This study addresses the nutritional challenges affecting vulnerable groups, particularly women and young children, in eight African cities by modelling nutritionally adequate, economically affordable, and culturally acceptable diets. Our goal is to provide optimised diets for future consideration in f…
Demographic and socio-economic shifts partly explain the Martinican nutrition transition
Objective: The Caribbean has seen a dramatic shift in the obesity and chronic disease prevalence over the past decades, suggesting a nutrition transition. Simultaneously, Martinique has faced a demographic transition marked by significant population ageing. We aimed to differentiate the contribution of changes in health status and dietary intakes due to shifts in demographic and socio-economic characteristics (DSEC) from that due to unobserved fa…
Socioeconomic inequalities in metabolic syndrome in the French West Indies
Socioeconomic inequalities in MetS prevalence, reflected by education and social assistance benefits, were found. However, diet quality contributed only to socioeconomic inequalities due to education underlining that education may impact health through the ability to generate overall dietary behavior, long-term beneficial. Our work identified subgroups with higher risk of MetS, which is needed when implementing public health measures, particularl…
How low can dietary greenhouse gas emissions be reduced without impairing nutritional adequacy, affordability and acceptability of the diet? A modelling study to guide sustainable food choices
Objective To assess the compatibility between reduction of diet-related greenhouse gas emissions (GHGE) and nutritional adequacy, acceptability and affordability dimensions of diet sustainability. Design Dietary intake, nutritional composition, GHGE and prices were combined for 402 foods selected among those most consumed by participants of the Individual National Study on Food Consumption. Linear programming was used to model diets with stepwise…
Nutrigenetics
Objective It has been substantiated that the onset of most major diseases (CVD, diabetes, obesity, cancers, etc.) is modulated by the interaction between genetic traits (susceptibility) and environmental factors, especially diet. We aim to report more specific observations relating the effects of Mediterranean-type diets on cardiovascular risk factors and the genetic background of subjects. Results and conclusions In the first part, general conce…
