Abstract Ultra-processed foods provide 58 % of energy intake and 89 added sugars in the American diet. Nevertheless, association between ultra-processed excess weight has not been investigated a US sample. The present investigation therefore aims to examine nationally representative sample adults. We performed cross-sectional analysis anthropometric dietary data from 15 977 adults (20–64 years) participating National Health Nutrition Examination Survey 2005–2014. Dietary were collected by...
To investigate how consumption of ultra-processed foods has changed in Sweden relation to obesity.Nationwide ecological analysis changes processed along with corresponding obesity. Trends per capita food during 1960-2010 were investigated using data from the Swedish Board Agriculture. Food items classified as group 1 (unprocessed/minimally processed), 2 (processed culinary ingredients) or 3 (3·1, products; and 3·2, products). Obesity prevalence pooled peer-reviewed literature, Statistics WHO...
Incomplete understanding of the multiple mechanisms underlying link between ultra-processed foods and cardiometabolic health should not be an excuse for inaction argue <b>Mathilde Touvier colleagues</b>
Higher intake of ultraprocessed foods (UPFs) is associated with obesity. We examined whether replacing UPFs (NOVA 4) minimally processed and culinary ingredients 1 + 2) was differential weight change in this secondary prospective analysis the Preventing Overweight Using Novel Dietary Strategies (POUNDS) Lost trial.
Objective grocery transactions may reflect diet, but it is unclear whether the diet quality of purchases mirrors geographic and racial/ethnic disparities in diet-related diseases. This cross-sectional analysis 3961 households nationally representative Food Acquisition Purchase Survey evaluated purchase quality. Respondents self-reported demographics recorded over 7 days; Healthy Eating Index (HEI) 2015 assessed Survey-weighted multivariable-adjusted regression determined there were...
Ultra-processed food (UPF) consumption is linked to adverse health outcomes, including cardiovascular disease and all-cause mortality. Asian Americans (AAs) are the fastest growing ethnic group in United States, yet their dietary patterns have seldom been described. The aim was characterize UPF among AAs determine whether acculturation associated with increased consumption. NHANES an annual, cross-sectional survey representative of US population. We examined 2011–2018 data, which included...
Abstract Objective: The majority of groceries purchased by US households are industrially processed, yet it is unclear how processing level influences diet quality. We sought to determine if associated with quality grocery purchases. Design: analysed purchasing data from the National Household Food Acquisition and Purchase Survey 2012–2013. purchases were categorized NOVA framework as minimally processed culinary ingredients, foods or ultra-processed foods. energy share each (percentage...
Abstract Existing studies addressing alcohol consumption have not captured the multidimensionality of drinking patterns, including frequency, binge drinking, beverage preference and changes in these measures across adult life course. We examined longitudinal trends patterns their association with diet over four decades ageing US adults from Framingham Offspring Study ( n 4956; baseline mean age 36·2 years). Alcohol intake (drinks/week, beverage-specific consumption, drinks/occasion) was...
Insufficient research has explored whether sociodemographic differences in self-reported, individual-level diet quality are similarly reflected by grocery purchase quality. This cross-sectional analysis of n = 3961 U.S. households from the nationally representative Food Acquisition and Purchase Survey (FoodAPS) compared Healthy Eating Index (HEI)-2015 scores 1 week food-at-home acquisitions across self-reported demographic factors (race/ethnicity, Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program...
Introduction: The US Asian American (AA) population is projected to double by 2050, reaching ~43 million, and currently resides primarily in urban areas. Despite this, the geographic distribution of AA subgroup populations cities not well-characterized, social determinants health (SDH) measures places with significant AA/AA have been described. Our research aimed to: 1) map AAs subgroups at city- neighborhood- (census tract) level 500 large (population ≥66,000); 2) characterize SDH outcomes...
Abstract Ultraprocessed foods provide the majority of energy content in American diet, yet little is known regarding consumption trends over time. We determined diet processing level and quality from 1991 to 2008 within prospective Framingham Offspring Cohort. Dietary intakes were collected by FFQ quadrennially 1991–2008 (total four examinations). The analytical sample included 2893 adults with valid dietary data for ≥3 examinations (baseline mean age = 54 years). Based on NOVA framework, we...
