“…Moreover, the results show that most mothers usually add artificial flavorings. Considering that those artificial flavorings are high in sodium, and based on the findings of a recent study that suggest the use of artificial seasonings as a proxy of salt intake [30], our results point towards a high consumption of sodium among these families. These findings should be a concern for government and health authorities, given that most of the participants believe they consume a moderate amount of salt.…”

et al. 2020

Background: Salt intakes in Latin America currently double the World Health Organization’s recommendation of 5 g/day. Various strategies to reduce the population’s salt consumption, such as raising awareness using social marketing, have been recommended. This study identified parents’ perceptions of salt consumption to inform a social marketing strategy focused on urban areas in Peru. Methods: Using a sequential exploratory methods design, parents of pre-school children, of high and low socioeconomic status, provided qualitative data in the form of interviews and focus groups. Following this, quantitative data was obtained via questionnaires, which were sent to all parents. The information was analyzed jointly. Results: 296 people (mean age 35.4, 82% women) participated, 64 in the qualitative and 232 in the quantitative phase of the study. Qualitative data from the first phase revealed that the majority of mothers were in charge of cooking, and female participants expressed that cooking was “their duty” as housewives. The qualitative phase also revealed that despite the majority of the participants considered their salt intake as adequate, half of them mentioned that they have tried to reduce salt consumption, and the change in the flavor of the food was stated as the most difficult challenge to continue with such practice. Quantitative data showed that 67% of participants would be willing to reduce their salt intake, and 79.7% recognized that high salt intake causes hypertension. In total, 84% of participants reaffirmed that mothers were in charge of cooking. There were no salient differences in terms of responses provided by participants from high versus low socioeconomic groups. Conclusions: The results point towards the identification of women as a potential target-audience of a social marketing strategy to promote reductions in salt intake in their families and, therefore, a gender-responsive social marketing intervention is recommended.

“…A reduction in the frequency of use of ready broth cubes in the IG was observed, demonstrating the potential of the m-Health strategy on sodium consumption markers. Considering that a high percentage of the sample studied used ready broth cubes more frequently when compared to other processed seasonings, their use reduction could decrease sodium intake as much as 25%, as observed in a study with a similar population [6].…”

“…In addition, it was not possible to measure sodium consumption using the gold standard method (24-hour urinary excretion), due to operational and technical difficulties, just like other sodium-source foods were not assessed, as well as frequency of eating out and whether participants prepare meals at home. However, a study conducted with a university community identified a significant association between frequent use of processed condiments and higher estimated salt consumption, demonstrating the contribution of these products to increased sodium consumption [6].…”

“…A similar estimate of salt consumption (10.5±3.6g) was found in the study carried out in Vitória, Espírito Santo State, that is, twice the daily recommended rate. In addition, individuals who used stock broth cubes and dressings daily exhibited sodium urinary excretion approximately 25% above those who used such products occasionally [6]. This scenario shows the importance and the need to implement actions to reduce the addition of salt and processed seasonings using different approaches.…”

Objective Evaluate the effectiveness of mHealth strategy on sodium consumption markers. Methods Intervention study carried out with 175 adults (20-59 years), from an educational institution of Vitória, Espírito Santo State. Participants were made aware through posters, oral approach and electronic media. Anthropometric, hemodynamic, socioeconomic, health, and dietary practices data was collected in two stages. After the first assessment, participants were randomized into two groups: Intervention Group and Control Group. The Intervention Group included 21 electronic messages and 3 videos on healthy eating focusing on the goal to reduce sodium intake for 3 months. Behavioral changes were assessed using the Generalized Estimation Equation (p-value <0.05). Results At baseline, no significant differences in socioeconomic, anthropometric and health variables, and eating practices between groups were observed. The stock broth cube was the most used ready processed seasoning. After the intervention, a reduction in the use of stock broth was observed only in the intervention group (β=0.615; p=0.016). In addition, 73% of the intervention group participants reported that the messages were clear, 67% reported that they were useful, and 48% stated they followed the guidelines. Conclusion There was a reduction in the frequency of use of stock broth cubes, demonstrating the potential effect of the m-Health strategy on sodium consumption markers in individuals without a hypertension medical diagnosis.

“…7 Além disso, estudo recente na cidade de Vitória-ES mostrou que maior excreção urinária de sódio está associada com uso frequente de condimentos industrializados. 8 Assim, tornam-se necessárias medidas de intervenção em saúde para a redução da ingestão de sódio nas populações.…”

Objetivo: Descrever o processo de construção e desenvolvimento de ações educativas via mHealth para redução de sódio e realizar avaliação do ponto de vista do receptor. Método: Estudo de intervenção com 155 adultos (20-59 anos) de uma instituição de ensino em Vitória-ES. Os participantes foram contatados por exposição a banner, convite face to face e mídia eletrônica. Após primeira coleta de dados, os participantes foram randomizados em dois grupos: Intervenção (GI) e Controle (GC). Dados socioeconômicos, de saúde e práticas alimentares foram obtidos antes e após a intervenção. Foram elaboradas 21 mensagens e três vídeos focados na redução de sódio, enviadas por aplicativo WhatsApp® ou e-mail, durante três meses. Testes adequados, segundo o delineamento da amostra, foram aplicados utilizando o software SPSS 23, adotando-se nível de significância de 5%. Resultados: Na linha de base, não foram observadas diferenças significativas entre grupos de alocação. Cerca de 70% dos participantes do GI relataram que as mensagens foram úteis, claras e objetivas; 50% relataram que as mensagens ajudaram a realizar escolhas alimentares mais saudáveis e 47% disseram que seguiram as sugestões propostas. Mais de 60% do GI relataram que adotaram hábitos alimentares mais saudáveis, enquanto no GC as respostas foram associadas à prática de “dietas da moda”. Esses resultados mostram a importância da utilização de ações educativas baseadas em conhecimento científico e na adoção de práticas alimentares saudáveis. Conclusão: A maioria dos participantes identificou a estratégia mHealth como de fácil compreensão e útil, bem como foram mais expostos à informação sobre alimentação saudável.
