Ultra-processed food (UPF) consumption impacts nutrient intake and plays an important role in non-communicable diseases (NCD), even among schoolchildren. This cross-sectional study aimed to characterize the of this population its relationship with laboratory anthropometric aspects. A sample 190 subjects aged 5 19 y was randomly selected for dietary, laboratory, assessment. Statistical inference calculated using Spearman’s correlation. Excess weight observed 34%, a high Waist-to-Height Ratio...
Aimed at improving the quality of school meals, Sustainable School Program (SSP) implemented low-carbon twice a week, in 155 schools 4 municipalities, reaching more than 32,000 students. This study evaluated environmental impact and nutritional viability this intervention for population. The 15 most repeated meals from conventional sustainable menus were selected, we considered age group number served per student/day. Nutritional information was calculated using validated food composition...
Projected to impact 310 million children by the next decade, childhood obesity is linked serious health issues like metabolic disturbance and cardiovascular diseases. This study introduces a novel approach for integrated assessment of inflammatory, glycemic lipid disorders in obese resources-limited settings also identifies key factors contributing these changes. Conducting cross-sectional analysis 231 aged 5-12 years from public schools Brazil's semi-arid region, research involved...
The gut microbiome has recently been the subject of considerable scientific interest due to its essential bodily functions. Several factors can change composition and function microbiome, dietary habits are one most important contributors. Despite recognition probiotic effects related genus Bifidobacterium spp. (BIF) studies aiming assess relationship with metabolic outcomes show conflicting results, particularly in child population. This cross-sectional study aimed evaluate fecal abundance...
