Some studies have suggested that eating patterns, which describe frequency, the temporal distribution of events across day, breakfast skipping, and frequency meals away from home, may be related to obesity. Data Seasonal Variation Blood Cholesterol Study (1994-1998) were used evaluate relation between patterns Three 24-hour dietary recalls a body weight measurement collected at five equally spaced time points over 1-year period 499 participants. averaged for periods, cross-sectional analysis...
Abstract Objective To perform construct validation of the population-based Dietary Inflammatory Index (DII) using dietary data from two different assessments and serum high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) as validator. Design Using derived (i) three 24 h recalls (24HR) at baseline end each subsequent quarter (i.e. up to fifteen over a year) (ii) 7 d recall (7DDR) measured then quarterly, regression analyses were conducted test effect DII score on hs-CRP dichotomous (≤3 mg/l, >3...
Social desirability (the tendency to respond in such a way as avoid criticism) and social approval seek praise) are two prominent response set biases evident answers on structured questionnaires. These were tested by comparing nutrient intakes estimated from single 24-hour diet recall interview (24HR) 7-day dietary (7DDR).

Literature has indicated that accurate dietary assessment is very important for assessing the effectiveness of weight loss interventions. However, most existing methods rely on memory. With help pervasive mobile devices and rich cloud services, it now possible to develop new computer-aided food recognition system assessment. enabling this future Internet Things-based imposes several fundamental challenges algorithm development design. In paper, we set address these issues from following two...
The Anti-Inflammatory Diet (IBD-AID) is a nutritional regimen for inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) that restricts the intake of certain carbohydrates, includes ingestion pre- and probiotic foods, modifies dietary fatty acids to demonstrate potential an adjunct therapy treatment IBD.
