“…Lower adherence to the “Han diet” and “Out-sourced diet” pattern was associated with age ≥51 years, while the same age group had higher adherence with the “local traditional diet” pattern. Even so, we did not find other dietary patterns (i.e., “vegetable-based”, “Western” or “prudent”) with adherence to the older group referred in other studies with older adults [ 1 , 18 , 29 ]. The relationship between age and dietary patterns is controversial.…”

“…Analyzing dietary patterns (rather than foods or nutrients) has been recommended as an effective method for studying diet and its relationship to health due to the complex interaction between different food components [ 26 , 27 ]. Dietary patterns can be derived using an a priori (hypothesis-driven) [ 28 ] or an a posteriori (data-driven) approach [ 18 , 29 , 30 ]. Although data-driven dietary patterns may not be as polarized as hypothesis-driven dietary patterns, they can more accurately reflect actual eating habits as combinations of food consumed in different groups of the population, rather than relying on current knowledge [ 18 ].…”

The distinct Tibetan regional diet is strongly influenced by the regional biogeography, indigenous traditions, popular religious beliefs and food taboos. In the context of the nutritional transition in Tibet, studies seldom report on the food consumption and dietary patterns of Tibetan residents. This is a cross-section study of 552 local adults (≥18 years old, 277 men and 275 women) living in 14 agricultural countries along the Yarlung Tsangpo River. Dietary intakes were assessed by a culturally specific FFQ and compared with the Chinese Dietary Pagoda (2016). Dietary Patterns were extracted by using PCA method. The binary logistic regression model was applied to assess the association between independent variables (genders, regions and age groups) and adherence to dietary patterns. With the exception of meat (100 ± 260 g/day) and soybean nuts (42 ± 12 g/day), which exceeded the recommended dietary intakes of CDP, the dietary intake of other foods were not up to the recommended value. In particular, the intake of aquatic products (2 ± 0.1 g/day), vegetables (90 ± 19 g/day), dairy products (114 ± 29 g/day), cereals (117 ± 27 g/day) and fruits (97 ± 25 g/day) were seriously inadequate, which were 95%, 70%, 62%, 53.2% and 51.5% lower than the recommended intakes, respectively. Four dietary patterns were identified. “Local traditional diet” was characterized by a high intake of tsampa (roasted highland barley flour), culturally specific beverages (sweet tea and yak buttered tea), potato and yak beef and was associated with female, rural and older adults (≥51 years old). The male, urban and 18~30 years old group had a higher adherence score with the “Han diet”, which was comprised of rice, pork, dumplings, eggs, milk and cabbage. The “Beverage diet”, which mainly include tsampa, chang (homemade barley wine) and sweet tea, was associated with the following group: female, urban and aged 18~30 years. The “Out-sourced diet” pattern, consisting of mainly rice, steam bread and some processed meat, was associated with being male, urban and 18–30 years of age. These findings indicate that the dietary practice of the Tibetan people still has strong local characteristics, but it is also undergoing a dietary transition with the penetration of the Chinese Han diet and the increased consumption of outsourced (processed) foods. The unbalanced dietary intake of Tibetan residents should be taken seriously by all parties.

“…It can be explained because the reproducibility compares the same instruments (FFQ), and the validity compares two different methods FFQ and RA. Our data report concordance similarities with other studies of the same nature 28,29 ; the discordant data presented low percentages, showing for reproducibility 13.5% for polyunsaturated fat and 7.8% for magnesium and validity of 18.9% for omega 3 and 8.5% for magnesium.…”

Background: To investigate the association between diet and health effects in population surveys, it is necessary to have precise tools that allow estimating the habitual consumption of the population. Introduction: To investigate the association between diet and health effects in population surveys, it is necessary to have precise tools that allow estimating the habitual consumption of the population. Aim: To evaluate the reproducibility and validity of the ELSA-Brasil food frequency questionnaire (FFQ) to assess macro and micronutrients intake. Material and methods: We collected dietary information of 281 participants which completed two ELSA-Brasil food frequency questionnaires (FFQ) over a year period and three records. To assess the reproducibility of the FFQ, we compared the macro and micronutrients intake from the two FFQ while to assess the validity, we compared the intakes of FFQ with the mean of three records. The intraclass correlation test (ICC) and agreement percentages of nutrient intake were calculated after categorization by tertiles. Results: ICC coefficients for reproducibility ranged from 0.51 (polyunsaturated fat) to 0.70 (magnesium) while the ICC coefficients for validity ranged from 0.14 to 0.61 for omega 3 and magnesium, respectively. The exact concordances between methods ranged from 37% for omega 3 to 50.2% for magnesium (mean = 44.6%). An average disagreement of 13.4% was found. Conclusions: This study suggests that the ELSA-Brasil FFQ is suitable tool to assess dietary intake with a satisfactory reproducibility and relative validity.

“…Validated Dietary Habits and Nutrition Beliefs Questionnaire (KomPAN) was used to assess the frequency of consumption of 33 food items over the past year, with frequency consumption of items evaluated in six categories, i.e., from 'never' (1) to 'a few times a day' (6) [24]. For each food item, the frequency categories were converted to values reflecting daily consumption frequency (range: 0-2 times/day).…”

The Association between Fat Taste Sensitivity, Eating Habits, and Metabolic Health in Menopausal Women

et al. 2021

The aim of our study was to evaluate the associations between sensitivity to fat taste, eating habits and BMI value in a sample of menopausal Polish women. In a population of 95 women, fat taste thresholds with oleic acid were determined, allowing us to classify each woman as a hypersensitive or hyposensitive taster. Eating habits were assessed using a validated KomPAN questionnaire for food frequency. Dietary intake was evaluated based on a food diary. Selected biochemical parameters were measured using a Konelab20i biochemical analyzer. Anthropometric parameters and blood pressure were also measured. Twenty-two menopausal women were classified as hyposensitive to fat taste and 73 as hypersensitive. The hyposensitive tasters were significantly older (p = 0.006), with the majority of them (92%) being postmenopausal (p < 0.001); this group had significantly higher BMI values (p < 0.001) and other adiposity indicators compared to their hypersensitive counterparts. The hyposensitive tasters had higher blood pressure (systolic blood pressure; SBP p = 0.030; diastolic blood pressure; DBP p = 0.003), glucose (p = 0.011) and triacylglycerols levels than the hypersensitive tasters (p = 0.031). Almost half of them had diagnosed metabolic syndrome. Daily eating occasions were associated with low oral fatty acid sensitivity, irrespective of age (p = 0.041) and BMI value (p = 0.028). There were also significant associations between frequency of consumption of meats and eggs, as well as snacks and fast foods and low oral fatty acid sensitivity before adjustment for potential confounders (both associations p < 0.05), which remained after adjustment for age (both associations p < 0.05), but not after adjustment for BMI. A multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that higher BMI value (p = 0.003), along with postmenopausal status (p = 0.003), were associated with low fat taste sensitivity irrespective of age and consumed percentage energy from fat. Postmenopausal status and BMI are associated with low fat taste sensitivity. Fat hyposensitivity may also play a role in eating habits, leading to increased eating occasions and favoring certain types of food. These eating habits may determine increased body weight and the occurrence of metabolic syndrome in mid-life women, especially those who have undergone menopause and have been exposed to the physiological changes which are conducive to these relationships.
