ResumoObjetivo: Verificar o papel nutricional do cálcio e da vitamina D no processo de crescimento e desenvolvimento infanto-juvenil, visando, em especial, a prevenção e o tratamento do atraso de crescimento causado por deficiência nutricional. Fontes dos dados:As informações foram coletadas a partir de artigos publicados nas 2 últimas décadas, pesquisados nas bases de dados SciELO, PubMed e MEDLINE, livros técnicos e publicações de organizações internacionais. Síntese dos dados:O crescimento sofre influência de fatores intrínsecos (genéticos e metabólicos) e extrínsecos (fatores ambientais, como alimentação, saúde, higiene, habitação, e o acesso aos serviços de saúde). Entre os fatores nutricionais, destacam-se as deficiências de vitaminas e oligoelementos que podem se associar à desnutrição ou depender da absorção insuficiente dos mesmos. Sendo o cálcio um dos principais componentes do tecido mineral ósseo, este é essencial para uma adequada formação óssea e, considerando que a vitamina D desempenha papel importante no metabolismo do cálcio, uma dieta insuficiente nesses nutrientes pode influenciar a formação do esqueleto e o processo de crescimento e desenvolvimento. Conclusões:A baixa ingestão ou baixa absorção de cálcio e vitamina D em crianças e adolescentes pode limitar seu desenvolvimento estatural, sendo necessário fornecer quantidades suficientes de ambos na fase crítica do crescimento. Summary of the findings:Growth is influenced by intrinsic (genetic and metabolic) and extrinsic factors (environmental factors such as diet, health, hygiene, housing and access to health services). Among the nutritional factors are vitamin and oligoelement deficiencies which may be associated with malnutrition or caused by insufficient absorption. Since calcium is one of the main mineral components of bone tissue, it is essential for adequate bone formation and, considering that vitamin D plays an important role in calcium metabolism, a diet with insufficient quantities of these nutrients can impact on the formation of the skeleton and on the process of growth and development.

“…Thus, the positive relationship between the intake and retention of calcium and vitamin D is a protective factor against future bone diseases (Prentice et al, 2005;Salamoun et al, 2005;Hill et al, 2008;Wagner and Greer, 2008). However, dietary research shows a large difference between the recommended calcium consumption and the actual calcium intake, especially during the critical years of childhood and adolescence (Lerner et al, 2000;Rajeshwari et al, 2004;Gordom et al, 2004;Rajakumar et al, 2005).…”

Calcium and vitamin D intake and biochemical tests in short-stature children and adolescents

Background: Growth is highly dependent on the absorption of nutrients. Inadequate calcium and vitamin D intake may compromise bone mineralization and growth. There is a great deal of concern regarding calcium and vitamin D intake, as well as biochemical changes in children and adolescents, which led us to investigate calcium and vitamin D levels during growth. Methods: Fifty-eight children and adolescents with short stature (z-score o3 s.d.) were evaluated from September 2005 to February 2007. Blood biochemical analyses and 24-h urine tests were performed and were used to evaluate calcium, phosphorus, creatinine, sodium, alkaline phosphatase, parathyroid hormone (PTH) and 25(OH)D levels. Dietary inquiries, repeated three times, were used to estimate the actual intake of these substances. Results: A reduced calcium (608.6 mg/day) and vitamin D (72.5 IU/day) intake was observed. Calcium excretion in 24-h urine (56 mg/24 h) and calcium excretion by weight (2.0 mg/24 h/kg) showed scores that were below normal. A negative correlation between PTH and both dietary vitamin D (r ¼ À0.46; Po0.01) and calcium intake (r ¼ À0.41; Po0.001) was observed. Conclusions: The low calcium and vitamin D intake observed in short-stature children and adolescents was associated with biochemical results, and suggested that PTH and calcium excretion may be useful screening tests for evaluating dietary calcium and vitamin D.

“…For children, the home environment represents the first and primary socialization point for healthy eating and adequate physical activity. Interventions in home/family environment at an early age may be important for obesity prevention because eating habits and taste preferences are established early in life and track into adulthood (11,28,92,105), and older children begin to exercise more developmentally appropriate control over their eating and physical activity, and peers become more important influences. Previous research indicates that parents and other primary caregivers influence children through various behaviors including feeding practices (12) and modeling of healthy eating (12) and physical activity (10,34).…”

With obesity affecting approximately 12.5 million American youth, population-level interventions are indicated to help support healthy behaviors. The purpose of this review is to provide a summary of population-level intervention strategies and specific intervention examples that illustrate ways to help prevent and control obesity in children through improving nutrition and physical activity behaviors. Information is summarized within the settings where children live, learn, and play (early care and education, school, community, health care, home). Intervention strategies are activities or changes intended to promote healthful behaviors in children. They were identified from (a) systematic reviews; (b) evidence- and expert consensus-based recommendations, guidelines, or standards from nongovernmental or federal agencies; and finally (c) peer-reviewed synthesis reviews. Intervention examples illustrate how at least one of the strategies was used in a particular setting. To identify interventions examples, we considered (a) peer-reviewed literature as well as (b) additional sources with research-tested and practice-based initiatives. Researchers and practitioners may use this review as they set priorities and promote integration across settings and to find research- and practice-tested intervention examples that can be replicated in their communities for childhood obesity prevention.

Longitudinal Changes in Intake and Food Sources of Calcium from Childhood to Young Adulthood: The Bogalusa Heart Study

Abstract: More effective nutrition educational efforts are needed to emphasize the importance of adequate calcium intake and the major food sources of calcium, beginning early in childhood and continuing into young adulthood.
