Designing healthier and acceptable diets using data envelopment analysis
Objective: The objective of this research is to propose methodology that can be used to benchmark current diets based on their nutrient intakes and to provide guidelines for improving less healthy diets in a way that is acceptable for the studied population. Design: We discuss important limitations of current diet models that use optimisation techniques to design healthier and acceptable diets. We illustrate how data envelopment analysis could be…
Operationalising the health aspects of sustainable diets
Objective Shifting towards a more sustainable food consumption pattern is an important strategy to mitigate climate change. In the past decade, various studies have optimised environmentally sustainable diets using different methodological approaches. The aim of the present review was to categorise and summarise the different approaches to operationalise the health aspects of environmentally sustainable diets. Design Conventional keyword and refe…
A systematic review of methods to assess intake of sugar-sweetened beverages among healthy European adults and children
Objective Research indicates that intake of sugar-sweetened beverages (SSB) may be associated with negative health consequences. However, differences between assessment methods can affect the comparability of intake data across studies. The current review aimed to identify methods used to assess SSB intake among children and adults in pan-European studies and to inform the development of the DEDIPAC (DEterminants of DIet and Physical Activity) to…
A systematic review of methods to assess intake of fruits and vegetables among healthy European adults and children
Objective Evidence suggests that health benefits are associated with consuming recommended amounts of fruits and vegetables (F&V), yet standardised assessment methods to measure F&V intake are lacking. The current review aims to identify methods to assess F&V intake among children and adults in pan-European studies and inform the development of the DEDIPAC (DEterminants of DIet and Physical Activity) toolbox of methods suitable for use in future …
BMI was found to be a consistent determinant related to misreporting of energy, protein and potassium intake using self-report and duplicate portion methods
Objective As misreporting, mostly under-reporting, of dietary intake is a generally known problem in nutritional research, we aimed to analyse the association between selected determinants and the extent of misreporting by the duplicate portion method (DP), 24 h recall (24hR) and FFQ by linear regression analysis using the biomarker values as unbiased estimates. Design For each individual, two DP, two 24hR, two FFQ and two 24 h urinary biomarkers…
Decreasing the overall environmental impact of the Dutch diet
Objective To find diets optimised on nutrition and environmental impact close to the current Dutch diet and to identify the most effective and acceptable options for mitigating environmental impact. Design Linear programming was used to optimise diets of Dutch men and women aged 9–69 years, divided into ten age–gender groups. The analysis included nutrient composition, a metric for popularity and life cycle assessments of 207 food products. Green…
Effectiveness of Taste Lessons with and without additional experiential learning activities on children’s willingness to taste vegetables
Unravelling the effect of the Dutch school-based nutrition programme Taste Lessons
The implementation process is related to the programme outcomes of Taste Lessons. Process data provide valuable insights into factors that contribute to the effect of interventions in real-life settings
Effect evaluation of a two-year complex intervention to reduce loneliness in non-institutionalised elderly Dutch people
Two years after its initiation the reach of the intervention programme was modest. Though no effect of the complex intervention was found on social support and loneliness, more favourable scores on loneliness literacy subscales were induced
Micronutrient intake and status in Central and Eastern Europe compared with other European countries, results from the Eurreca network
Objective To compare micronutrient intakes and status in Central and Eastern Europe (CEE) with those in other European countries and with reference values. Design Review of the micronutrient intake/status data from open access and grey literature sources from CEE. Setting Micronutrients studied were folate, iodine, Fe, vitamin B 12 and Zn (for intake and status) and Ca, Cu, Se, vitamin C and vitamin D (for intake). Intake data were based on valid…
Loneliness Literacy Scale
Do positive or negative experiences of social support relate to current and future health? Results from the Doetinchem Cohort Study
This study showed that social support might have a beneficial effect on lifestyle and health, with negative experiences of social support affecting lifestyle and health differently from positive experiences of social support
Design aspects of 24 h recall assessments may affect the estimates of protein and potassium intake in dietary surveys
Objective To evaluate the impact of different modes of administration (face-to-face v . telephone), recall days (first v . second), days of the week (weekday v . weekend) and interview days (1 d later v . 2 d later) on bias in protein and K intakes collected with 24 h dietary recalls (24-HDR). Design Two non-consecutive 24-HDR (collected with standardised EPIC-Soft software) were used to estimate protein and K intakes by a face-to-face interview …
Evaluation design for a complex intervention program targeting loneliness in non-institutionalized elderly Dutch people
Combining these two evaluation strategies has the potential to assess the effectiveness of the overall complex intervention and the contribution of the individual intervention components thereto
Misreporting of energy and micronutrient intake estimated by food records and 24 hour recalls, control and adjustment methods in practice
In order to assess nutritional adequacy, valid estimates of nutrient intake are required. One of the main errors in dietary assessment is misreporting. The objective was to review the extent, nature and determinants of misreporting in dietary assessment, how this affects reported intakes of micronutrients and how this is identified and measured, and to identify the best ways of dealing with misreporting when interpreting results. A systematic lit…
Abdominal obesity and the prevalence of diabetes and intermediate hyperglycaemia in Chinese adults
Objective To assess the association of indicators of general and abdominal obesity with the prevalence of type 2 diabetes (T2DM) and intermediate hyperglycaemia (IHG) in the Chinese population. Methods We used data of 50 905 adults aged 18–79 years in the 2002 China National Nutrition and Health Survey. Recommended Chinese cut-off values were used for BMI (24 kg/m 2 ) and waist circumference (WC; 85 cm in men, 80 cm in women). Optimal cut-offs fo…
Fruits and vegetables in the prevention of cancer and cardiovascular disease
Objective We quantified the public health benefit of fruits and vegetables on the prevention of cancer and cardiovascular disease (CVD), using currently available human data. Design We reviewed over 250 observational studies on cancer and CVD. Relative risks (RRs) for high versus low intake of fruits and vegetables were obtained. The preventable proportion of chronic diseases, i.e. the per cent of cases attributable to low consumption of fruits a…
