<b><i>Objective: </i></b>To project the prevalence of obesity across WHO European region and examine whether target halting at 2010 levels by 2025 is achievable. <b><i>Methods: </i></b>BMI data were collected from online databases literature. Past present BMI trends extrapolated to using a non-linear categorical regression model fitted nationally representative survey data. Where only 1 year was available, flat trend assumed. no proxy country...
Background Malnutrition linked to noncommunicable diseases presents major health problems across Europe. The World Health Organisation encourages countries conduct national dietary surveys obtain data inform public policies designed prevent diseases. Methods Data on 27334 participants aged 19-64y were harmonised and pooled survey datasets from 12 the WHO European Region. Weighted mean nutrient intakes age-standardised using Eurostat 2013 Standard Population. Associations between...
The World Health Organization (WHO) recommends a reduced intake of free sugars throughout the life course (strong recommendation) with reduction to less than 10% total energy and preferably below 5% (conditional in both adults children. Available data clearly show that people already consume significantly more sugar they should, increasing risk for dental caries, overweight obesity. WHO recommendations are intended use by policy makers as benchmark assessing populations driving force change....
Abstract The aim was to determine whether commercial baby foods marketed within Europe (up 36 months of age) have inappropriate formulation and high sugar content provide suggestions update European regulations recommendations as part a nutrient profile model developed for this age group. latter produced following recommended World Health Organization (WHO) steps, including undertaking rapid literature review.

In the European Union (EU) three coloured graded Front-of-Pack labels (FoPLs), two endorsed by governments (Nutri-Score and Multiple Traffic Lights (MTL)) one designed industry (Evolved Nutrition Label (ENL)) are currently being discussed. This study aimed to investigate impact of these FoPLs on portion size selection, specifically for less healthy products. 2018, participants from French NutriNet-Santé cohort (N = 25,772) were exposed through a web-based self-administered questionnaire...
<b><i>Objective:</i></b> To evaluate the prevalence and geographic distribution of overweight obesity in Russian adults aged 25–64 years as well association between chronic risk factors obesity. <b><i>Methods:</i></b> Data were obtained from survey “Epidemiology Cardiovascular Diseases Its Risk Factors Some Regions Federation” (ESSE-RF). This is a large cross-sectional multicenter population-based study that included interviews medical...
Summary Unhealthy marketing has been unequivocally linked to children's food preferences, requests, purchases and eating behaviors hence childhood obesity. Regulating exposure such identified as a key challenge which States must rise. Regulation mandates the need for monitoring credible data that are comparable between countries, regions across time. However, there major challenges presented by complexity of digital ecosystem including personalized targeting with persuasive, exploitative...

Excess salt and inadequate potassium intakes are associated with high cardiovascular disease (CVD). In Montenegro, CVD is the leading cause of death disability. There no survey that has directly measured consumption in Montenegro. The aim to estimate population explore knowledge, attitudes behaviour (KAB), amongst adult Podgorica. Random samples adults were obtained from primary care centres. Participants attended a screening including demographic, anthropometric physical measurements....
Unhealthy diet, especially consumption of trans fatty acids (TFAs), is a known risk factor for cardiovascular disease (CVD), leading cause death in Austria. In 2009, Austria introduced law regulating the content TFAs foods. The aim this study was to assess impact TFA regulation on CVD-related outcomes.The evaluated as an intervention natural experiment. Two periods were assessed: pre-intervention (1995-2009) and post-intervention (2010-14). compared age-standardized rates per 100 000...
Evidence links consumed food portion size (FPS) and excess weight via increased energy intake. Policies to regulate on-pack serving sizes may be needed; determining FPS of popular energy-dense foods for normal overweight or obese (OWOB) adults, as reported here, provide evidence assist this. Data were analysed from national cross-sectional surveys, the French Étude Individuelle Nationale des Consommations Alimentaires2 2005–2007 (n = 2117), UK National Diet Nutrition Survey 2008–2014 3413)....
