“…US demographics have changed dramatically in recent years, [82] let alone since the development of nutrition interventions in the 1940s [83]. Existing interventions and programs tend to focus on single caregivers and do not formally incorporate other caregivers in nutrition education and programs [84,85]. Furthermore, prior research on feeding focuses on the parents (usually mothers) in isolation, whereas this project focuses on mothers and trusted other caregivers.…”

Background The prevalence of obesity among children remains high. Given obesity’s significant lifelong consequences, there is great interest in preventing obesity early in life. There is a need to better understand the relation of common infant feeding styles and practices to obesity in infants using longitudinal study designs. There is also an urgent need to understand the role of caregivers other than mothers in feeding. A better understanding of variation in feeding styles and practices can inform the identification of risk groups and the tailoring of interventions to them. Methods In partnership with Early Head Start programs across four counties in southern California, mothers and infants will be enrolled in a two-year longitudinal study collecting survey and anthropometric data. A subsample of mothers and their selected other caregivers will participate in qualitative research involving feeding diaries and dyadic interviews. The results will be used to develop and test an enhanced nutrition education program. Discussion We outline a study methodology to examine feeding styles and practices and their association with early childhood obesity risk and enhance an existing intervention to promote healthy infant feeding and growth among children in low-income families.

“…These counties are characterized by oftenoverlapping pockets of high poverty and ethnic minority populations. Latinxs constitute the largest minority group in these counties -- 84 [3]. Among California fifth graders, 49% of children in Imperial, 36% in Orange, 40% in Riverside, and 42% in San Bernardino counties are obese [54].…”

Objetivou-se apresentar o modelo conceitual e desafios de uma intervenção de educação em saúde, incluída por meio do Sistema Único de Saúde. Todos moradores de Dona Francisca, Rio Grande do Sul, de 50-80 anos de idade, atendidos pelos oito agentes comunitários de saúde (ACS) foram considerados elegíveis para a intervenção, que abrangeu: i) encontro individual; ii) contatos motivacionais; iii) encontros educacionais relacionados à atividade física, alimentação e controle de estresse. A intervenção foi conduzida pelos ACS previamente treinados. Foram realizadas três coletas de dados: i) linha de base (2014; n = 649); ii) intermediária (2015; n = 544) e; iii) final (2016; n = 555). Os principais desafios foram relacionados a pactuação dos ACS, baixa participação nos encontros educacionais e coleta de dados, especialmente em áreas rurais. Porém, houve capacitação dos ACS, maior acesso às informações de saúde para a população e coletas de dados que possibilitam traçar o perfil de uma população de município de pequeno porte.

“…196 Educators are needed to provide nutrition education and culturally-relevant cooking and food preparation classes to consumers so that they will choose to purchase healthy foods if they are available and affordable. 197 Among this array of different actors, lawyers and the legal profession have an essential role to play in supporting the alternative food system and thereby helping to improve the public health of the nation. As described above, small and mid-size producers suffer acutely from a range of programmatic and policy barriers and legal and regulatory hurdles because they generally are not able to afford the legal expertise needed to help them to learn how to structure their businesses or get the proper permits.…”
