Monitoring Changes in the Nutritional Content of Ready-To-Eat Grain-Based Dessert Products Manufactured and Purchased between 2005 and 2012 Oct 12, 2017

Show notes

Authors: Authors: Kevin C. Mathias, PhD; Shu Wen Ng, PhD; Barry Popkin, PhD. Interview: Dr. Kevin Mathias discusses the results of a new study that found that there has been little change in the nutritional content of ready-to-eat grain-based desserts (RTE GBDs) manufactured or purchased in the United States between 2005 and 2012; however overall consumer purchases of RTE GBDs declined by 24% during that same time period.

Sandwiches are a major contributor of sodium in the diets of American adults: Results from What We Eat in America, NHANES 2009-2010 Oct 12, 2017

Show notes

Authors: Rhonda Sebastian, MA; Cecilia Wilkinson Enns, MS, RD; Joseph D Goldman, MA; M. Katherine Hoy, EdD, RD; Alanna J Moshfegh, MS, RD . Interview: Sandwiches make up a substantial part of the American diet and are a significant contributor to daily energy and sodium intake. By closely analyzing data from the federal nationwide dietary intake survey known as "What We Eat in America NHANES 2009-2010," a team of Department of Agriculture (USDA) researchers found that on any given day 49 percent of U.S. adults eat at least one sandwich, and sandwiches account for one-fifth of total daily sodium intake.Rhonda Sebastian and Cecilia Wilkinson Enns discuss the results of this study and implications for dietitians.

Availability of Drinking Water in US Public School Cafeterias Oct 12, 2017

Show notes

Authors: Nancy Hood, PhD; Lindsey Turner, PhD; Natalie Colabianchi, PhD; Frank Chaloupka, PhD; Lloyd Johnston, PhD. Interview: By making clean drinking water easily accessible to the over 30 million children participating in the National School Lunch Program, schools are taking the first steps towards decreasing the amount of sugar-sweetened beverages children are likely to consume; however, there is still a long way to go before kids are getting their daily recommended amount of water. Lindsey Turner, PhD, and Natalie Colabianchi, PhD, talk about their new study focusing on compliance, perceptions, and recommendations for promoting water consumption.

Speed Lowers Energy Intake in Normal-Weight But Not In Overweight/Obese Subjects Oct 12, 2017

Show notes

Authors: Meena Shah, PhD; Jennifer Copeland, MS; Lyn Dart, PhD, RD, LD; Beverley Adams Huet, MS; Ashlei James, MS; Debbie Rhea, EdD. Interview: Lead investigator Dr. Meena Shah talks about new research published in the Journal of the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics that suggests that the ability to control energy intake may be affected by the speed at which we eat, and a high eating rate may impair the relationship between the sensory signals and processes that regulate how much we eat. Interesting similarities and differences between normal and overweight and obese groups emerged. December 30, 2013 (DOI: 10.1016/j.jand.2013.11.002)

What Everyone Else is Eating: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis of the Effect of Informational Eating Norms on Eating Behavior Oct 12, 2017

Show notes

Authors: Eric Robinson, PhD; Jason Thomas; Paul Aveyard, PhD; Suzanne Higgs, PhD. Video: Is obesity a socially transmitted disease? Jason Thomas presents the results of a new study published in the Journal of the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics that explored how social norms influence the quantity of food eaten. Researchers found that if participants were given information indicating that others were making low-calorie or high-calorie food choices, it significantly increased the likelihood that participants made similar choices.

Registered Dietitians Making a Difference: Early Medical Record Documentation of Estimated Energy Requirement in Critically Ill Children Is Associated with Higher Daily Energy Intake and with Use of the Enteral Route Oct 12, 2017

Show notes

Authors: Martin Wakeham, MD, FAAP; Melissa Christensen, Jennifer Manzi; Evelyn M. Kuhn, PhD; Matthew Scanlon, MD; Praveen S. Goday, MBBS; and Theresa A. Mikhailov, MD, PhD. Video: Lead investigator Dr. Martin Wakeham talks about the first study of enteral nutrition and caloric requirements (CR) among critically ill children detailed in a new report published in the Journal of the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics. This study also showed the value of including registered dietitians in the medical team. June 28, 2013 (DOI: 10.1016/j.jand.2013.04.025).

The Effects of Human Immunodeficiency Virus and Antiretroviral Therapy on Resting Energy Expenditure in Adult HIV-Infected Women: A Matched, Prospective, Cross-Sectional Study Oct 12, 2017

Show notes

Authors: Alison L Mittelsteadt, MS, RD, LD; Corrilynn O Hileman, MD; Stephanie R Harris, PhD, RD, LD; Kelly M Payne, MS, RD, LD; Barbara M Gripshover, MD; and Grace A McComsey, MD, FIDSA. Interview: Alison L Mittelsteadt and Stephanie R Harris provide insights on the first study to show that HIV-infected women experience elevated resting energy expenditure (REE). Their bodies use more kilocalories for basic functions including circulation, body temperature, and breathing. Investigators determined that REE continues to be elevated regardless of virologic suppression. This should be considered during nutrition assessment and counseling of HIV-infected women.

Effects of Modified Food Service Practices in Military Dining Facilities on Ad Libitum Nutritional Intake of US Army Soldiers Oct 12, 2017

Show notes

Authors: MAJ Aaron P. Crombie, PhD, RD; LTC; LesLee K. Funderburk, PhD, RD; Tracey J. Smith, PhD, RD; Susan M. McGraw; Leila A. Walker, MS; Catherine M. Champagne, PhD, RD, LDN, FADA; H. Raymond Allen, PhD; Lee M. Margolis, MS, RD; Holly L. McClung, MS, RD; Andrew J. Young, PhD. Interview: Researchers discuss a new study conducted by the US Army and the Pennington Biomedical Research Center that shows the effectiveness of waging war against the obesity epidemic in military cafeterias by making small, but effective changes to promote healthy eating and food selection. Their results can be easily applied to civilian settings. DOI: 10.1016/j.jand.2013.01.005.

Acne: The Role of Medical Nutrition Therapy Oct 12, 2017

Show notes

Authors: Jennifer Burris, MS, RD, CDE, CNSC, CSSD; William Rietkerk, MD, MBA; Kathleen Woolf, PhD, RD, FACSM. Interview: Researchers discuss a new study that has determined that there is increasing evidence of a connection between diet and acne, particularly from high glycemic load diets and dairy products, and that medical nutrition therapy (MNT) can play an important role in acne treatment. March 2013 (Volume 113, Issue 3, Pages 416-430, DOI:10.1016/j.jand.2012.11.016).

Single-Larger-Portion-Size and Dual-Column Nutrition Labeling May Help Consumers Make More Healthful Food Choices Oct 12, 2017

Show notes

Authors: Amy M. Lando, MPP, Serena C. Lo, PhD. Interview: An FDA-commissioned study finds that two proposed nutrition labeling changes could potentially make nutritional content information easier to understand. Study participants could more accurately assess the number of calories or amount of fat or other nutrients per serving and in the entire package when a single, large serving per container format or a dual-column format was used. February 2013 (Volume 113, Issue 2, DOI: DOI: 10.1016/j.jand.2012.06.012).
