Aim: The associations between types of dietary protein intake and child anthropometric measurements have not been fully studied. Therefore, we examined dietary protein pattern in relation to anthropometric indicators among 6-year-old children.Methods: We carried out a cross-sectional study of 788 randomly selected children from health centres in Tehran, Iran. Dietary intake was assessed using a food frequency questionnaire completed by the mothers. Anthropometric measurements were based on standard protocols. Principle component analysis was performed to identify different dietary protein patterns. We used multivariate logistic regression to evaluate how these patterns were associated with child anthropometry.Results: Three dietary protein patterns were identified: pattern 1 (rich in red and processed meats, dairy products and eggs), pattern 2 (rich in fish and poultry) and pattern 3 (rich in soy and legumes). After adjusting for potential confounders (energy intake, socioeconomic status and physical activity), being in the third compared to the first tertiles of pattern 2 was associated with increased (OR = 1.57; 95% CI: 1.09-2.27; P = .01) and decreased (OR = 0.54; 95% CI: 0.32-0.92; P = .02) risk of overweight/obesity and underweight/ wasting, respectively. There was no association between other dietary patterns and risk of overweight/obesity or underweight/wasting. Conclusions:The present study showed inverse association between the fish/ white meat pattern and underweight/wasting and also a positive association between higher fish/white meat protein intake and higher risk of overweight/ obesity. Further studies are needed to confirm these results. K E Y W O R D S children, dietary protein, obesity, underweight, wasting

“…26 The annual intake of vegetable food protein in European infants is in general less than that of animal food protein. 27 Lastly, a single grain of grass pollen contains on average only 2.3 pg (one millionth of a microgram) of Phl p 5, and in Germany approximately 2000 grass pollen grains are cumulatively dispersed per cubic meter per year. 28 This suggests that a German child inhales no more than a few micrograms of Phl p 5 per year.…”

“…A cross-sectional analysis of healthy Danish children found that height was significantly associated with total protein, animal protein and milk intake, but not with either meat or vegetable protein intake [13]. A study in Iceland found that healthy toddlers with the highest quartile of animal protein consumption, compared with the lowest quartile, had greater weight, height and BMI at 12 months old [14]. A 20-year prospective cohort study in a healthy Danish population found that pregnant women who consumed high amounts of milk (>150 mL/day) produced offspring with significantly greater adult height than mothers who consumed less milk (<150 mL/day) [15].…”

“…Regular consumption of milk or animal protein, but not meat, has been positively associated with increased serum IGF-1 [13]. A recent study also associated dairy protein intake with serum IGF-1 levels in six-year-old girls [14]; however, seven-day supplementation of casein, but not whey, increased serum IGF-1 in healthy Danish boys [45]. Without the synergistic effect of all milk components, whey’s individual effect on IGF-1 and subsequent growth remains unsupported [3,43].…”

Fortified blended foods (FBF) are used for the prevention and treatment of moderate acute malnutrition (MAM) in nutritionally vulnerable individuals, particularly children. A recent review of FBF recommended the addition of animal source food (ASF) in the form of whey protein concentrate (WPC), especially to corn-soy blends. The justification for this recommendation includes the potential of ASF to increase length, weight, muscle mass accretion and recovery from wasting, as well as to improve protein quality and provide essential growth factors. Evidence was collected from the following four different types of studies: (1) epidemiological; (2) ASF versus no intervention or a low-calorie control; (3) ASF versus an isocaloric non-ASF; and (4) ASF versus an isocaloric, isonitrogenous non-ASF. Epidemiological studies consistently associated improved growth outcomes with ASF consumption; however, little evidence from isocaloric and isocaloric, isonitrogenous interventions was found to support the inclusion of meat or milk in FBF. Evidence suggests that whey may benefit muscle mass accretion, but not linear growth. Overall, little evidence supports the costly addition of WPC to FBFs. Further, randomized isocaloric, isonitrogenous ASF interventions with nutritionally vulnerable children are needed.

Animal protein intake at 12 months is associated with growth factors at the age of six

Abstract: High animal protein intake in infancy, but not vegetable protein intake, was associated with accelerated growth and higher BMI in childhood. Dairy protein intake in infancy may be positively associated with linear growth and also with IGF-1 in six-year-old girls.
