The Nutri-Score in the German Perception by Yvette Skretkowicz,Jens K. Perret Pdf

The Nutri-Score is currently used in 7 countries in the EU and is part of the German re-duction and innovation strategy to combat non-communicable diseases related to un-healthy eating. The Nutri-Score is intended to inform consumers and serves as a guide when buying packaged food. The aim of this study is to investigate the significance, benefits, function and credibility of the Nutri-Score in Germany from the perspective of nutrition experts, business representatives from food companies, packaging experts and general consumers. A qualitative method was selected for the evaluation and a survey was conducted with the help of expert interviews with 23 industry experts on their personal opinion of the Nutri-Score. The qualitative method allowed the research questions to be considered from the per-spective of different experts and two-sided responses showed that the answers varied depending on the professional background of the experts. In summary, it can be said that the Nutri-Score can be used as a guide for the average consumer, but there are still some suggestions for improvement, such as the consideration of additional ingre-dients, the controlling of the label and a fundamental holistic nutritional education.

Taste, Nutrition and Health by Beverly J. Tepper,Iole Tomassini Barbarossa Pdf

The sensation of flavor reflects the complex integration of aroma, taste, texture, and chemesthetic (oral and nasal irritation cues) from a food or food component. Flavor is a major determinant of food palatability—the extent to which a food is accepted or rejected—and can profoundly influence diet selection, nutrition, and health. Despite recent progress, gaps in knowledge still remain regarding how taste and flavor cues are detected at the periphery, conveyed by the brainstem to higher cortical levels, and then interpreted as a conscious sensation. Taste signals are also projected to central feeding centers where they can regulate hunger and fullness. Individual differences in sensory perceptions are also well known and can arise from genetic variation, environmental causes, or a variety of metabolic diseases, such as obesity, metabolic syndrome, and cancer. Genetic taste/smell variation could predispose individuals to these same diseases. Recent findings have opened new avenues of inquiry, suggesting that fatty acids and carbohydrates may provide nutrient-specific signals informing the gut and brain of the nature of the ingested nutrients. This Special Issue, Taste, Nutrition, and Health, presents original research communications and comprehensive reviews on topics of broad interest to researchers and educators in sensory science, nutrition, physiology, public health, and health care.

Implementing nutrition labelling policies by Anonim Pdf

Nutrition labelling on packaged foods is intended to inform the consumer of nutritional properties of a food. However, some labels may create false perceptions of the healthfulness of products and may confuse or mislead consumers. To address this challenge and to support Member States in implementing policy measures, as recommended by the Framework for Action from the 2014 Second International Conference on Nutrition, the World Health Organization (WHO) is in the process of developing evidence-informed policy guidelines on the food environment, including on nutrition labelling policies (with a focus on ingredient lists, nutrient declarations, supplementary nutrition information and health and nutrition claims). This review on contextual factors to be considered in the implementation of nutrition labelling policies was prepared as part of the required process for WHO guideline development.

Global Food Systems, Diets, and Nutrition by Jessica Fanzo,Claire Davis Pdf

Ensuring optimal diets and nutrition for the global population is a grand challenge fraught with many contentious issues. To achieve food security for all and protect health, we need functional, equitable, and sustainable food systems. Food systems are highly complex networks of individuals and institutions that depend on governance and policy leadership. This book explains how interconnected food systems and policies affect diets and nutrition in high-, middle-, and low-income countries. In tandem with food policy, food systems determine the availability, affordability, and nutritional quality of the food supply, which influences the diets that people are willing and able to consume. Readers will become familiar with both domestic and international food policy processes and actors, and they will be able to critically analyze and debate how policy and science affect diet and nutrition outcomes.

Salt Taste, Nutrition, and Health by Albertino Bigiani Pdf

Salt (NaCl) is a key component of the human diet because it provides the sodium ion (Na+), an essential mineral for our body. Na+ regulates extracellular fluid volume and plays a key role in many physiological processes, such as the generation of nerve impulses. Na+ is lost continuously through the kidneys, intestine, and sweating. Thus, to maintain proper bodily balance, losses have to be balanced with foods containing this cation. The need for salt explains our ability to detect Na+ in foodstuffs: Na+ elicits a specific taste sensation called “salty”, and gustatory sensitivity to this cation is crucial for regulating its intake. Indeed, the widespread use of salt in food products for flavoring and to improve their palatability exploits our sense of taste for Na+. When consumed in excess, however, salt might be detrimental to health because it may determine an increase in blood pressure—a major risk factor for many cardiovascular diseases. Understanding how salt taste works and how it affects food preference and consumption is therefore of paramount importance for improving human nutrition. This book comprises cutting-edge research dealing with salt taste mechanisms relevant for nutrition and health.
