- ItemAcesso aberto (Open Access)Caracterização do consumo de adoçantes alternativos e produtos dietéticos por indivíduos diabéticos(Sociedade Brasileira de Endocrinologia e Metabologia, 2002-06-01) Castro, Adriana G.p. de [UNIFESP]; Franco, Laercio Joel [UNIFESP]; Universidade Federal de São Paulo (UNIFESP)The consumption of alternative sweeteners and dietetic products is increasing in the last few years. These products play an important role in the diet of patients with diabetes (DM), since they can provide the taste of sweetness, without adding calories. To know the pattern of consumption of these products among individuals with DM, a survey was carried out in a diabetes reference center in the city of São Paulo, Brazil, from January 1998 to April 1999. A questionnaire was applied to a random sample of 389 patients, from both sexes, aged 18 years or more. Data analysis was performed through the software Epi-Info 6.02. The majority of the participants (90.5%) consumes sweeteners, usually chooses products according to their preference (46.3%) and has the diagnosis of DM as the main determinant factor for its use (38%). Soft drinks are the dietetic product most consumed.
- ItemAcesso aberto (Open Access)Efeitos de processo educativo nutricional sobre o nível de conhecimento de escolares na prevenção e controle da obesidade infantil(Universidade Federal de São Paulo (UNIFESP), 2016-09-30) Picerni, Cristiane Mara Cedra [UNIFESP]; Dâmaso, Ana Raimunda [UNIFESP]; http://lattes.cnpq.br/8198400959291700; http://lattes.cnpq.br/3440056040330466; Universidade Federal de São Paulo (UNIFESP)Obesity is a worldwide prevalence disease regarded as a 21st century epidemic. It decreases the quality of life and reduces from five to eight years the average of life expectancy. The sedentary lifestyle of children, whom spend many hours watching TV and playing video games, associated with large availability of high calorie foods, encourages and increases obesity in children. Changes in lifestyle, including physical exercises and clinical, nutritional and psychological monitoring, are considered effective strategies for improving nutritional staus, body composition, weight loss and healthy food consumption. As overweight children are more likely to become obese in their adulthood, it is essential to develop strategies at school since it is an ideal place to work nutritional education activities. The aim of this study was to apply an educational tool to verify the improvement of children knowledge level in the area of healthy nutrition. In addition, the study aimed at the prevention and control of obesity in children. The protocol was developed by the Obesity Study Group of UNIFESP and was based on the book that comprises nutritional education activities. The research was performed on 49 students from one private school in São Paulo, whom underwent a nutritional intervention protocol in their curriculum during four months. The main finding was that the intervention model has shown significant improvements in the level of nutrition knowledge, favoring the control of obesity and its comorbidities in children.
- ItemAcesso aberto (Open Access)Impacto de dois programas de educação nutricional sobre o risco cardiovascular em pacientes hipertensos e com excesso de peso(Pontifícia Universidade Católica de Campinas, 2009-02-01) Alvarez, Tatiana Souza [UNIFESP]; Zanella, Maria Teresa [UNIFESP]; Universidade Federal de São Paulo (UNIFESP)OBJECTIVE:To evaluate and compare the effects of two study protocols with a program of educational nutrition intervention on CARDIOVACULAR risk in overweight hypertensive patients maintained on their usual medication. Patients were followed at Hypertension and Metabology Division of Federal University of São Paulo. METHODS: Sixty tree overweight [body mass index >27 e <39kg/m²] hypertensive patients, age M=55,7 (Standard deviation - SD=6,1) years old, 12 men and 51 women, were divided into two groups according to visit intervals, either every five weeks (G35 n=25) or every two weeks (G14 n=38), during twenty weeks. The two groups were submitted to an educational program aiming to improve the quality of their diet and to promote changes in their alimentary habits. Before and at the end of the study period, all patients were submitted to blood pressure determinations, to anthopometric measurements and to laboratorial evaluation for the calculation of Framingham coronary risk. RESULTS:At the end of the study significant and similar changes in body mass index, waist circumference (102,9, SD=9,7 vs 101,8, SD=7,6 NS), systolic blood pressure (139,7, SD=12,4 vs 134,8, SD=8,2 NS), total cholesterol (192,9, SD=35,7 vs 195,2, SD=37,8 NS), energy intake (1759,5, SD=385,8 vs 1858,7, SD=452,8 NS) and Framingham coronary risk (11,1, SD=6,1 vs 9,4, SD=3,5 NS) we observed in G14 and G35 groups respectively. CONCLUSION: A short program of nutritional intervention was shown to be useful to reduce coronary risk in overweight hypertensive patients despite a very small change in body weight. A higher frequency of visits did not achieve better results, with a monthly visit being enough for positive changes although with a higher rate of drop outs.
- ItemAcesso aberto (Open Access)Introdução da sacarose no plano alimentar de portadores de diabetes mellitus tipo 1: sua influência no controle glicêmico(Sociedade Brasileira de Endocrinologia e Metabologia, 2005-06-01) Costa, Paula Cristina A. da [UNIFESP]; Franco, Laercio Joel [UNIFESP]; Universidade Federal de São Paulo (UNIFESP); Universidade de São Paulo (USP)To evaluate the influence of sucrose intake in the glycemic control, ten adolescents with type 1 diabetes were followed during eight months. Initially, they received personalized orientation on diet, self monitoring blood glucose and insulin dose adjustment; after four months, all patients introduced sucrose in their afternoon meals, throught the method of carbohydrate counting. Total cholesterol and triglycerides levels were measured in the beginning and in the final of the study. Hemoglobin A1C levels were measured in the beginning, after four months without and after four months with intake of foods with sucrose. All patients showed adequate pubertal development and growth; two had overweight and the others were eutrophic. After four mounths of follow up, the frequency of self monitoring blood glucose was reduced (p< 0.001). Total cholesterol and triglycerides values were in the normal range and A1C values decreased during the observed period (p= 0.027). Conclusion: the consumption of foods with sucrose, using the technique of carbohydrate counting, did not affect the metabolic control of adolescents with type 1 diabetes.
