Prevalence of ultra-processed foods and beverages in newly launched products across the Americas
Background Ultra-processed foods (UPFs) are an increasing global health concern, but their prevalence across the food supply is unknown. This is particularly important in developing countries such as Latin America, where consumption is lower but increasing. We quantified country-specific metrics of UPFs in the food supply across the Americas, including the prevalence of UPFs, the presence and number of additives, and the extent to which UPFs and …
A Mixed Methods Analysis of Factors That Influence the Diet Quality and Decision‐Making of Adolescent Girls in an Urban Informal Settlement in Kenya
Due to the nutrition transition, adolescent diets globally appear to be shifting to increased consumption of fast foods and snacks high in sodium, added sugar, and saturated fat. In urban informal settlements in Kenya, limited evidence suggests adolescents consume 1-2 meals per day, have low dietary diversity, and consume foods from roadside stalls. We characterized the diets of adolescent girls in an urban informal settlement in Kenya and assess…
Understanding bias in relationships between the food environment and diet quality
Background The relationship between food environment exposures and diet behaviours is unclear, possibly because the majority of studies ignore potential residual confounding. Methods We used 20 years (1985–1986, 1992–1993 2005–2006) of data from the Coronary Artery Risk Development in Young Adults (CARDIA) study across four US cities (Birmingham, Alabama; Chicago, Illinois; Minneapolis, Minnesota; Oakland, California) and instrumental variables (…
Combined measure of neighborhood food and physical activity environments and weight-related outcomes
Fast food price, diet behavior, and cardiometabolic health
Multiple pathways from the neighborhood food environment to increased body mass index through dietary behaviors
Marriage and parenthood in relation to obesogenic neighborhood trajectories
Neighborhood Availability of Convenience Stores and Diet Quality
Objectives. We examined the association between neighborhood convenience stores and diet outcomes for 20 years of the Coronary Artery Risk Development in Young Adults study. Methods. We used dietary data from the Coronary Artery Risk Development in Young Adults study years 1985–1986, 1992–1993, and 2005–2006 (n = 3299; Birmingham, AL; Chicago, IL; Minneapolis, MN; and Oakland, CA) and geographically and temporally matched neighborhood-level food …

Body fat is differentially related to body mass index in U.S.‐born African‐American and East African immigrant girls
Objective: To examine ethnic differences in adiposity at a given body mass index (BMI) in a sample of U.S.‐born African‐American and East African immigrant adolescent girls. Methods: In a sample of black adolescent girls ( n = 79; ages 14–20) we compared measures of adiposity across the range of BMI‐for‐age among 55 U.S.‐born African‐American (mean BMI: 30.4; age: 15.4) and 24 East African immigrant girls (mean BMI: 21.8; age: 16.7). Fat and fat‐…

Is whole grain intake associated with reduced total and cause-specific death rates in older women? The Iowa Women's Health Study
OBJECTIVES: This study sought to determine whether nutrient-rich whole grains reduce mortality risk. METHODS: The study included 38,740 Iowa women, aged 55 to 69 years. A food frequency questionnaire was used to obtain data on grain intake. RESULTS: Median whole grain intake quintiles ranged from a median of 0.2 to more than 3 servings per day. Women with higher intakes had healthier lifestyles and less baseline disease. The total death rate decr…
