Facilitating healthier food purchases through product placement, promotional cues, and pricing interventions in Australian food relief pantries
A primary response to Australia's food insecurity involves provision of food relief. Evidence suggests those with more severe food insecurity lack regular access to sufficient nutritious food to meet dietary needs. Marketing techniques such as nudging are commonly used in food retail environments to influence consumer purchases, yet use of these to support healthier client purchases in the food relief sector is uncommon. This study measured the e…
Comparison of iodine status pre- and post-mandatory iodine fortification of bread in South Australia
Objective: The present study aimed to evaluate the effect of mandatory iodine fortification of bread on the iodine status of South Australian populations using newborn thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) concentration as a marker. Design: The study used an interrupted time-series design. Setting: TSH data collected between 2005 and 2016 ( n 211 033) were extracted from the routine newborn screening programme in South Australia for analysis. Iodine …
Agreement between markers of population iodine status in classifying iodine status of populations
Burden of disease attributable to suboptimal diet, metabolic risks and low physical activity in Ethiopia and comparison with Eastern sub-Saharan African countries, 1990–2015
In Ethiopia, while there was a decline in mortality and DALYs attributable to CMU over the last two and half decades, the burden attributable to dietary and metabolic risks have increased during the same period. Lifestyle and metabolic risks of NCDs require more attention by the primary health care system of the country
Comparison of breast-milk iodine concentration of lactating women in Australia pre and post mandatory iodine fortification
Objective To compare the breast-milk iodine concentrations (BMIC) of lactating women before and after the mandatory iodine fortification of bread in Australia in 2009. Design Cross-sectional study. Breast milk samples were collected from two cohorts of women in South Australia within 7 d of delivery to determine BMIC. The percentage of samples with iodine concentration below 100 μg/l, a level considered adequate for breast-fed infants, was calcul…
Iodine status of pregnant women in South Australia after mandatory iodine fortification of bread and the recommendation for iodine supplementation
Mandatory iodine fortification of bread was introduced in 2009 in Australia in response to the reemergence of iodine deficiency. The aim of this study was to assess iodine intake, urinary iodine concentration (UIC) and their correlation in pregnant women (n = 783) recruited from South Australia 2 years following mandatory iodine fortification. Total iodine intake (food and supplements) and UIC were assessed at study entry ( 150 μg/L
Adherence to the Australian dietary guidelines during pregnancy
Objective To assess dietary intake of pregnant women against the Australian Dietary Guidelines with respect to the Five Food Group recommendations and determine predictors of adherence to the recommendations. Design Cross-sectional web-based survey. Data were analysed using descriptive statistics and logistic regression. Setting Pregnant women living in Australia. A national sample was recruited using an online panel provider and a South Australi…
Iodine status in pre‐school children prior to mandatory iodine fortification in Australia
The iodine status of children between the ages of 5 and 15 years has been routinely assessed in many countries, but few studies have examined iodine status in pre-school children. We conducted a cross-sectional study of pre-school children living in Adelaide, South Australia, between 2005 and 2007. Children 1-5 years old were identified using a unique sampling strategy to ensure that the study population was representative. A 3-day weighed diet r…
