Industrialized foods in early infancy: a growing need of nutritional research
(Porto Biomedical Journal, 2019) Ribeiro, Karla Danielly; Araujo, Célia; Padrão, Patrícia; Moreira, Pedro; 1545-5017
This study analyzes dietary risk factors affecting mortality and disability-adjusted life-years across 195 countries, highlighting high sodium intake and low consumption of whole grains, fruits, vegetables, nuts, and seeds. It finds suboptimal intake of healthy foods and excessive consumption of sugar-sweetened beverages, alongside high levels of red and processed meats. The urgent need for healthy eating patterns, particularly during critical periods like complementary feeding and early infancy, is emphasized. The role of ultraprocessed foods, linked to poor diet quality and increased noncommunicable disease risk, is discussed. The study underscores the importance of collecting data on the nutritional profiles of industrialized foods for young children to aid public health efforts in promoting healthier dietary choices.
