“…The students at SB schools were slightly older than those at the non-SB schools, 14.7 mean years compared to 14.0 mean years ( p < 0.0001). The demographic characteristics of the 24HDR participants were similar to those of the larger sample of students who completed the surveys [22], except that the proportion of females was higher in the 24HDR group (64.1% compared to the survey group 52.1%). Approximately 15% of all students who participated in the 24HDR reported not eating lunch during the period evaluated by the 24HDR.…”

SB study eligibility included Orleans Parish schools that contained at least one grade each at the 7th through 12th grade levels, were recipients of donated SB units from the LMSBS initiative, and did not participate in a previous pilot study on SB use.…”

“…The Automated Self-Administered 24HDR tool for kids (ASA24-Kids-2012) is a web-based data collection platform developed by the National Cancer Institute. It uses the validated US Department of Agriculture (USDA) Automated Multiple-Pass Method to guide participants through seven stages of data collection [22,23,24,25,26]. The ASA24-Kids-2012 platform collects complete dietary intake information from the 24-h period of the previous day (midnight to midnight) and uses the USDA Food and Nutrient Database for Dietary Studies version 4.1 [26] and the USDA My Pyramid Equivalents Database 2.0 [27] to convert the entered information into nutrient and food group intake estimates.…”

The school lunch salad bar (SB) is a recommended food environmental strategy to increase access to, and consumption of fruit and vegetables (F/V). In a study to examine use of school lunch SBs, middle and high school students provided data via the Automated Self-Administered 24-h dietary recall (24HDR) tool for kids (ASA24-Kids-2012), a web-based data collection platform. Kilocalories were computed, food groups were assigned and F/V sources were obtained. Students (n = 718) from 12 schools with SBs and nine schools without SBs were approximately 87% African American, over 64% female and most were 7th and 8th graders. SB school students had higher median energy consumption at lunch but a higher percent of non-SB students reported eating fruit at lunch compared to SB students. Most students reporting eating F/V at lunch obtained F/V from the cafeteria main line; only 19.6% reported eating F/V exclusively from the SB. In SB schools median intake of cups F/V was higher among students using the SB (0.92) compared to those not using the SB (0.53). Results of this study are mixed, but encouraging. Additional factors, e.g., nutrition education, marketing, and kinds of foods offered on the SB need to be examined for potential influence on SB use.

Цель -исследование пищевых предпочтений студентов и риска развития у них избыточной массы тела. Материал и методы. Обследованы 239 студентов. Проведен опрос по пищевым предпочтениям, измерены антропометрические показатели, выполнено биоимпедансное исследование. Результаты. Выявлена связь пищевого поведения с полом, массой тела, окружностью талии и голени. Индекс массы тела и содержание жировой ткани также оказались взаимосвязаны с пищевым поведением. Пищевые предпочтения также ассоциированы с содержанием воды в организме. Aim. The objective of the present work was to study the nutritional preferences of the students and to evaluate the risk of gaining excessive weight. Material and methods. A total of 239 college students were interviewed to elucidate their nutritional preferences. Simultaneously, their anthropometric characteristics were obtained and a bio-impedance study carried out. Results. The results of the study give evidence of the relationship between the eating behaviour and such anthropometric characteristics as age, sex, waist and lower leg circumference. Moreover, the nutritional preferences were shown to depend on the water content in the body.

Building healthy fruit and vegetable (FV) consumption habits early in life is critical for primary prevention. However, U.S. youth do not come close to meeting national recommendations for FV intake. School-lunch salad bars are one of the most heavily promoted ways to meet FV guidelines. Contrary to popular belief, no rigorous randomized trials have examined whether salad bars increase students' FV consumption. This paper describes the design and rationale of a federally funded trial to evaluate whether introducing salad bars in elementary, middle, and high schools affects students' FV consumption and waste during lunch. A cluster factorial randomized trial will test new salad bars against waitlist controls, with and without an additional marketing intervention (N=36 schools, N=6804 students: n=12 elementary, n=12 middle and n=12 high schools). Objective plate waste measurements of individual student's selection of FVs, consumption, and waste will be conducted using digital scales. Primary aim includes comparing FV consumption in schools without salad bars to those with new salad bars by grade level. Secondary aims include: a) whether FV marketing impacts the success of salad bars for FV consumption; b) whether salad bars differentially result in more FV waste compared to traditional serving methods; c) costbenefit of using salad bars for consumption over traditional serving methods. When complete, this study stands to be one of the most definitive on the effectiveness of salad bars and contextual factors impacting their success. Findings will provide evidence for how to best spend limited federal dollars to improve FV intake in schools.
