The European Nutrition and Health Report is the first comprehensive assessment of present status nutrition health in Europe, available resources requirements for compatible representative data from different countries. 13 EU member states Norway have participated this project, pursuing three main goals: Compila
Excessive salt intake is known to increase blood pressure and cardiovascular risk. Nevertheless, exceeds the recommendations in most countries. To face this problem, it important identify high consumers as well main contributors of intake. Overall, data 2018 adults between 18 64 years were analysed determine sources, socio-demographic anthropometric correlates Dietary was assessed from 24-h-recalls, information on characteristics obtained using a questionnaire measured. Salt significantly...
Dietary intake of sodium, potassium, calcium and magnesium has a strong impact on personal health. In order to understand possible correlations with regional occurrence diseases develop new dietary strategies, it is necessary evaluate food choices in defined geographic areas. The aim this study was analyze daily consumption major sources electrolytes an emphasis patterns. representative, cross-sectional study, foods 463 adults were assessed two nonconsecutive 24-h recalls. Our results show...
Abstract Objective The present study aimed to identify dietary patterns, compare patterns regarding nutrient profile and investigate the association between body composition in a population western Austria. Design In cross-sectional study, eating habits, anthropometric measurements were assessed. Food intake was collected by two non-consecutive 24 h recalls. Factor analysis (principal component analysis) with complementary cluster applied patterns. Associations of examined t test, one-way...
The food consumption data collection from adults was part of the Austrian Study on Nutrition and Austria Report 2017. In addition to adults, adolescents pregnant women were collected. reported EU Menu Project thus followed as far possible EFSA Guidance specifications in contract. A nationally representative sample adult population aged 18 64 years (n=2250) selected using a multistage stratified cluster sampling procedure. subgroup 10 17 (n=657) national school register by random schools...
Zinc has been identified as a critical micronutrient also in high-income countries. There is still some uncertainty about the evaluation of zinc sufficiency due to divergent daily intake reference values. We wanted exemplify this issue using data from Austrian Study on Nutritional Status 2012. Plasma concentrations were measured nationally representative sample 872 persons aged 6-80 years (55.5 % female). Dietary was estimated two 24h dietary recalls. Additionally, parameters antioxidative...
Abstract There is sufficient evidence that the periconceptional period a key window during which poor maternal nutrition can adversely influence long-term health and disease risk into adulthood. The higher rate of obesity in women childbearing age bad quality mother's diet may result incidence hyperglycemia or hyperlipidemia, associated with an impaired metabolism offspring. This cross-sectional study analysed dietary habits physical activity 190 pregnant aged 31 ± 6 years second third...
Background: Potassium status has been found to affect glucose homeostasis. Objective: his study therefore aimed at investigating relationships between potassium or dietary intake and fasting plasma (FPG) glycated haemoglobin (HbA1c) in a sample of Austrian adults (18-80 years, n = 421, 61% women) from the Study on Nutritional Status 2012. Methods: Dietary was obtained by two 24 h recalls. FPG, K+, urinary K+ were determined photometrically, HbA1c HPLC. Associations parameters studied using...
Abstract Introduction Being the predominant osmotically active element inside cells, potassium is a central regulator of osmotic balance and electrochemical membrane potential. As such, it has an effect on blood pressure therefore counteracts effects excess dietary sodium intake. Furthermore, affects glucose homeostasis by influencing insulin secretion from pancreatic β-cells. Due to health-promoting potassium, German-speaking countries have recently updated reference values for potassium....
