“…Further, our findings indicate that the lack of effect on breakfast intake found in the effectiveness study (11) was not attributable to incomplete implementation. This finding stresses the conclusion of the effectiveness study, that our school-based educational intervention was unable to change breakfast consumption.…”

“…As regards snack and sweets intake, students less often consumed sweets from the unfavourable sweets category (e.g. less often chocolates, more often chewing gum or no sweets) (11) . On the other hand, the trend towards falling breakfast frequencies which is seen among Dutch youngsters between the ages of 12 and 16 years (12) did not slow down as a consequence of the programme.…”

Objective: The goal of the current study was to examine if the completeness of programme implementation and the completeness of implementation of specific programme elements of the Dutch school-based healthy diet promotion programme Krachtvoer are related to short-and longer-term changes in students' fruit, sweets and breakfast intakes. Design: Data on students' dietary intakes were collected 1-4 weeks and 6 months after programme implementation. Teachers filled in a logbook on programme implementation after each lesson. The relationships between changes in students' dietary intakes and completeness of implementation of the programme and of specific programme elements were tested using mixed linear regression analyses. Setting: Thirteen Dutch prevocational schools. Subjects: Eight hundred and seventy-six of the 1117 participating students and eighteen of the twenty-two participating teachers. Results: Completeness of programme implementation was positively related to an increase in fruit consumption in the short term. Completeness of implementation of food exposure activities and a practical lesson on advertisements were related to an increase in fruit consumption in the short as well as the longer term. No such relationships were found for sweets and breakfast consumption. Conclusions: Our results indicate that efforts should be made to help teachers implement the programme as fully as possible.

“…[16][17]25,27 As a diagnostic instrument, they support the planning of focused action plans, given ample evidence of the positive impact of educational interventions on FV intake. 25,[31][32] For this population, it is also important to combine the baseline awareness data to further investigation into motivational state (pre-contemplation, contemplation, decision, action) and environmental characteristics 17 of adolescents, so that the right strategies are established, including working with both parents and the community in which they live.…”

What do active male brazilian adolescents know about fruits and vegetables? J Hum Growth Dev. 2016; 26(3): 316-322 J Hum Growth Dev. Abstract:Objective: To describe and compare data on nutritional awareness regarding FV among adolescents from fi ve Brazilian regions, according to demographics, physical activity levels, screen time and BMI.Methods: Cross-sectional study with 1.190 males aged 10-12 in fi ve Brazilian regions, enrolled in a football tournament, with parental consent. BMI, weekly physical activity and daily screen time in minutes, awareness of FV recommendations in daily servings and recognition of food groups, home region, and residents of the household were obtained through self-administered questionnaire, adapted from a previously validated tool. ANOVA, Spearman correlation and chi-squared tests were performed, with a signifi cance level of 5%.Results: Analysis showed 29% of overweight and obesity, less than 2 hours of daily screen time (70%) and insuffi cient levels of weekly physical activity (mean 226 minutes). Most (95%) lived with parents and with siblings (73%). About 29% of the sample were aware of FV recommendations and 60% recognized food groups. Awareness was not associated with BMI (p = 0.95), home region (p = 0,88), physical activity (p = 0.21), screen time (p = 0.46) or housing characteristics (p = 0.33). Conclusions:Data found on awareness of food groups are consistent with national and international studies, suggesting patterns of poor awareness worldwide. To our knowledge, there are no other Brazilian reports of level of awareness on recommendations of FV in this age group. The importance of behavioral interventions is acknowledged for stimulating healthy habits, which renders the results useful for the development of educational activities for this age group in Brazil.
