RESUMO
Serious games emerge as teaching tools with a purpose beyond entertainment, aiming to improve some aspect of the teaching-learning process. Given the high prevalence of chronic noncommunicable diseases in the Brazilian population, this study aimed to evaluate, through a systematic literature review, the potential of serious games as a tool for Food and Nutrition Education. To this end, we searched the PubMed, Biblioteca Virtual de Saúde, and SciELO databases for articles published in the last five years in english and portuguese. A total of 63 studies were identified, of which only 10 met the inclusion and exclusion criteria established for this review. Most studies reported positive outcomes with the use of serious games as an educational tool, finding positive effects on the retention of knowledge learned about food and nutrition, and their use showed promise as an alternative to traditional teaching methodologies. Despite this, the studies had limitations regarding the duration of the interventions and the representativeness of their sample sizes, indicating the need for future studies with methodological designs that fill such gaps. This review shows that gamified approaches to nutrition education seem promising in the context of the teaching-learning process but still lack methodological standardization for interventions based on serious games to be validated as a tool for Food and Nutrition Education.
RESUMO
Resumo Este ensaio explora as convergências e singularidades do diálogo entre a educação popular (EP) e a educação alimentar e nutricional (EAN) a partir de fragmentos biográficos do percurso formativo da graduação em Nutrição de três docentes universitários que constituíram as suas trajetórias acadêmico-profissional mediados pela Educação Popular. Inspirando-se na autobiografia, as narrativas revelaram que as indignações iniciais com as desigualdades sociais foram mobilizadoras do percurso formativo, possibilitando a compreensão dos fenômenos da fome, do sofrimento e do cuidado humano. Assim, o exercício de buscarem espaços e oportunidades na qual pudessem conhecer e experienciar o trabalho social em contextos de vulnerabilidades mostrou-se decisivo nas construções pessoais e profissionais, revelando as contradições dos modelos tradicionais de formação e foram o ponto de partida para a gênese do pensamento crítico. Assim, pretende-se oferecer pistas para compreender as interfaces entre EP e EAN, na convergência de ações em torno da luta contra a fome e pelo Direito à Alimentação, sem, entretanto, reduzir-se uma à outra, quando a alimentação e nutrição se projetam no horizonte das práticas.
Abstract This essay explores the convergences and singularities of popular education and Food and Nutrition Education based on biographical fragments of the undergraduate training program in Nutrition of three university professors who established their academic and professional trajectories at these crossroads of knowledge and actions mediated by popular education. Inspired by the autobiographical method, the narratives revealed that the initial indignations with social inequalities were mobilizing the routes in the formative path toward understanding hunger, suffering, and human care. To this end, seeking spaces and opportunities to learn about and experience social work in contexts of vulnerabilities was a decisive factor in their personal and professional constructions, revealing the contradictions of traditional training models and the starting point for the genesis of critical thinking. Thus, clues are offered to understand the interfaces of Popular Education (PE) and Food and Nutrition Education (FNE) in the converging actions around the fight against hunger and the right to food without, however, reducing one to the other when food and Nutrition are projected on the horizon of practices.

RESUMO
Background: Obesity is one of the triple burden malnutrition in Indonesia, alongside undernutrition that increasing over the years. The study was done to evaluate the effect of four weeks nutrition education intervention among children with overweight and obesity. Methods: This study was a cluster randomized control trial in two elementary school in Jakarta. SD Kramat Pela 07 were selected as a control and SD Kramat Pela 09 as an intervention group. Intervention on school children were conducted for four weeks. Samples were students who were selected with the criteria of having overweight and obesity. An education through video was delivered from the teachers consecutively to the students every week. Nutrition knowledge was collected with a Google-form questionnaire that consist of 15 questions. Nutrient intake was collected with 24-hour recalls before and after the intervention. Results: A significant increase of nutrition knowledge on both group after the intervention (p<0.05). There was a significant change of fiber intake (p<0.05) after four weeks of intervention. The average duration of physical activity for respondents showed an increase in the intervention group, but it was not statistically significant (p>0.05). Conclusions: After four weeks intervention, nutrition education improved the knowledge, nutrients intake, and physical activity among school children with overweight and obesity. We recommend the school authorities to enhance the capacity and capabilities of teachers in fostering efforts to improve the health and nutrition of students through school-based learning. Additionally, the consumption of fiber is considered an indicator of healthy food quality in controlling overweight and obesity.
RESUMO
Objectives@#While food product labelling is deemed important in providing consumer information, little is known about the characteristics of those reading and not reading. This study aimed to determine the socio-demographic characteristics of Filipino adult consumers reading and not reading food product labels and nutrition facts to provide insights on their understanding and usage of food labels that may help in designing better label formats of packaged foods and related health education campaigns.@*Methods@#Cross-sectional design using secondary data from the Expanded National Nutrition Survey (ENNS) 2018- 2019 was employed. A survey form on Reading Food Product Labels and Nutrition Facts in the ENNS 2018-2019 were collected through face-to-face interviews. Descriptive statistics, test of proportions, and logistic regression were done using Stata version 16.@*Results@#Always reading product labels were reported only by 19.6% of adult consumers, 18 years old and above, while 45.9% reported not reading food product labels. Among those who read food product labels, only 16.7% reported reading nutrition facts. Higher proportions of adults reading nutrition facts were found among those who attained a higher educational level, were less than 40 years old, living in urban residences, and belonging to higher wealth status. ‘Not interested’ was the top reason of adults who reported not reading nutrition facts.@*Conclusion@#Reading product labels and nutrition facts is not common among Filipino adults. Being not interested was the top reason for not reading food product labels. Older persons, adults with low educational attainment, and belonging to poor households were more likely to not read food product labels and not influenced by nutrition facts which imply the need for a food label format that would cater to those who cannot or have difficulty reading food labels and nutrition facts. An intensified campaign on the importance of reading food product labels is also needed.
RESUMO
@#eToyBox is a learning management system for preschool teachers to improve their health literacy, which ultimately aims to improve children’s obesity-related behaviour. As part of the development process of eToyBox, assessment on digital literacy, acceptance of digitization of education materials, and perceived barriers in adopting online learning is needed. Fifty-four preschool teachers under the Community Development Department (KEMAS) in Kuala Lumpur, Selangor, and Sarawak, who participated in ToyBox Study Malaysia intervention in 2018, took part in this cross-sectional study. An online self-administered questionnaire was used to assess sociodemographic background, use of communication tools and media, and teacher’s views on adapting the ToyBox modules to digital education materials. Respondents were contacted, and questionnaire link was shared through WhatsApp messages. Most participants (74.0%) were Malay females aged 31 to 40 years old. Most participants had internet access (94.4%) and owned at least a smart phone, laptop or tablet (94.4%). Participants perceived their computer skills to be average (75.0%). Majority of respondents (65.0%) reported advanced and higher abilities in word processing and email, but only 22.0% in spreadsheet skills. The main barrier to accessing online material was unstable internet connection (74.1%). Most respondents (90.0%) agree that adapting effective modules to online learning will be beneficial for professional development and teaching practices. In conclusion, most participants supported digitizing Toybox Study Malaysia educational content and were comfortable 72 with its implementation via an online learning platform. The findings from this study can advise future development of online learning materials for preschool teachers in Malaysia.
RESUMO
Abstract Objective To evaluate the impacts of a nutritional education intervention for patients with multiple chronic conditions during smoking cessation. Methods The non-probabilistic sample comprised 18 adults and seniors of both sexes recruited from a smoking cessation treatment group. At the beginning of treatment, smoking history, degree of dependence, and stage of motivation were assessed. Degree of craving was evaluated weekly for the 1st month. Anthropometric and biochemical assessments were conducted at baseline, at 1 month, and at 3 months. Dietary intake was assessed with the "How is your diet?" questionnaire. The nutritional intervention was delivered in three sessions. The themes covered were energy balance and physical activity, healthy eating, and the importance of fruit and vegetables in the diet. Statistical analysis was conducted with the Shapiro Wilk test of normality, the paired t test, and the Wilcoxon or Mann-Whitney U tests (significance ≤ 0.05). Results Most people (55.6%) in the intervention group had a high degree of smoking dependence, while the frequency in the control group was 22.2%. Degree of craving decreased significantly after 1 month of treatment (p = 0.017). After 3 months, both groups had a positive variation in mean body weight, although below 3%. In both groups, the average percentage of weight gain was less than 3%, suggesting that delivery of the nutritional education sessions and the nutritionist's use of the protocol proposed by the Instituto Nacional de Câncer (INCA) helped to control weight gain. Blood glucose and homeostasis model assessment-insulin resistance (HOMA-IR) both increased significantly in the intervention group (p = 0.15 and p = 0.50, respectively). Conclusion Greater proximity and more frequent intervention by a nutritionist assists and encourages healthy eating practices during the smoking cessation process, which can benefit individuals' control of chronic diseases over the long term.

Background: The prevalence of non-communicable diseases (NCDs), including hypertension and cancer, in Indonesia had increased, as shown by the result of Riskesdas 2018. To prevent the increase in the prevalence of NCDs, it is recommended to implement a healthy lifestyle in accordance with Indonesia balanced nutrition guidelines, including my plate. This study aimed to see the effect of nutrition education and mentoring on knowledge and implementation of my plate among adults. Methods: This study used non-equivalent quasi experimental design. Respondents were 60 adults who were divided into control and treatment groups with 4 weeks of treatments. Results: The age of respondents were between 22 to 44 years old with most of them were female (66.7%) in the treatment group and male (56.7%) in the control group. After four weeks of treatments, there were significant increases in nutritional knowledge (p=0.001) in both groups, but the results of the independent t-test showed no differences between groups. The study also showed that the number of respondents with daily meals similar to my plate increased from 33.3 to 50% in both groups. However, the average body weight of respondents also increased after treatments, but they were insignificant (p>0.05). Conclusions: Nutrition education and mentoring can increase the nutritional knowledge of adults significantly. However, changing nutrient intake and body weight would take a longer time.

RESUMO
Introducción: el artículo analiza los lineamientos en educación alimentaria y de fomento agrícola que circularon en la Revista Educador Sanitario, publicación oficial de la repartición nacional de educación sanitaria de Argentina durante la década de 1960. Desarrollo: el trabajo explora las adaptaciones discursivas de los sanitaristas argentinos a las directrices internacionales de desarrollo para promover la campaña mundial contra el "hambre oculta", definida como aquellos patrones culturales alimentarios de baja calidad nutricional. Luego, examina las prescripciones dietéticas para las familias populares que pretendían estimular como hábitos, calidad, variedad y austeridad. Por último, revisa las tensiones y las contradicciones inmanentes a las referencias eruditas en torno al fomento agrícola y a las reglas del libre comercio, al evidenciar las inequidades alimentarias y la falta de infraestructura federal para lograr la ansiada modernización agroalimentaria. Conclusiones: el discurso de los desarrollistas sobre alimentación nutritiva apropiadas por la revista fueron funcionales al clima de proscripción peronista. Los consejos dietéticos y en economía doméstica apuntaron a sustituir el consumo cárnico por otras fuentes proteicas, como legumbres y lácteos, y los hidratos de carbono simples, por complejos, como las hortalizas. No obstante, sus vinculaciones con el fomento a las agroeconomías de subsistencia refutaron la pre- valencia del "hambre oculta" como problema alimentario en Argentina, pues, en sintonía con los parámetros internacionales, de esta manera se propiciaría una dinámica de redistribución alimenticia, capaz de reponer las vacancias del mercado interno y de estimular las exportaciones netas al prevenir la erosión de los saldos exportables
Introduction: This article analyzes the guidelines on food education and agricultural promotion that circulated in the Revista Educador Sanitario, the official publication of the national health education department of Argentina during the 1960s. Development: The study explores the discursive adaptations by Argentinean sanitarians to the international development guidelines toward promoting the global campaign against "hidden hunger," which referred to the cultural eating patterns of low nutritional quality food. Then, the study examines the dietary prescriptions for popular families that were intended to stimulate quality, variety, and austerity as healthy habits. Finally, it reviews the tensions and contradictions immanent in the scholarly references to agricultural promotion and free trade rules, highlighting food inequities and the lack of infrastructure at the federal level to successfully achieve the desired agri-food modern- ization. Conclusions: The developmentalist disourse on nutritious food appropriated by the Revista were found to be functional to the climate of peronist prescription. Dietary and home economics suggestions attempted to substitute meat consumption for other protein sources such as legumes and dairy products and that of simple carbohydrates for complex ones such as vegetables. However, their links with the promotion of subsistence agro-economies refuted the prevalence of "hidden hunger" as a food problem in Argentina. In line with the international parameters, this approach would promote a dynamic of food redistribution to replenish the gaps in the domestic market and stimulate net exports by preventing the erosion of exportable balances.

Conclusões: os discursos desenvolvimentistas sobre alimentação nutritiva apropriados pela Revista foram funcionais ao clima de proscrição pero- nista. Aconselhamento dietético e de economia doméstica visando a substituição do consumo de carne por outras fontes de proteína, como leguminosas e laticínios; e carboidratos simples para os complexos, como vegetais. No entanto, seus vínculos com a promoção de agroeconomias de subsistência refutaram a prevalência da "fome oculta" como problema alimentar na Argentina. Pois bem, em sintonia com os parâmetros internacionais, isso promoveria uma dinâmica de redistribuição de alimentos, capaz de repor as vagas no mercado interno e estimular as exportações líquidas ao evitar a erosão dos saldos exportáveis

Os objetivos deste estudo foram relatar a experiência da utilização de oficinas culinárias como estratégia didático-pedagógica na disciplina de educação nutricional, e analisar as percepções dos estudantes quanto à interdisciplinaridade e aplicabilidade na atuação profissional, pela análise de conteúdo temática. Este é um relato de experiência da utilização de oficinas culinárias durante a disciplina de Educação Nutricional no curso de nutrição de uma universidade pública. Foram quantificados os tipos de receitas selecionadas e seus respectivos princípios dietéticos e/ou dietoterápicos. Identificamos que 80% das receitas selecionadas priorizavam o conteúdo de nutrientes dos ingredientes como princípio dietético/dietoterápico e somente 20% consideraram aspectos sensoriais e culturais. Na análise qualitativa, foram identificados três eixos temáticos: (1) O olhar do estudante sobre a oficina culinária; (2) O aprendizado da oficina culinária para sua prática profissional; (3) A racionalização da alimentação. A oficina foi considerada uma experiência inovadora e enriquecedora para a formação acadêmica, principalmente pela interdisciplinaridade. Conclui-se que o uso de oficinas culinárias como estratégia didático-pedagógica interdisciplinar nos cursos de Nutrição pode trazer benefícios na formação dos futuros nutricionistas (AU)
The objectives of this study were to report the experience of using culinary workshops as a didactic-pedagogical strategy in the nutrition education discipline, and analyze the students' perceptions regarding interdisciplinarity and applicability in their professional practices through thematic-content analysis. This is an experience report on the use of culinary workshops during the nutritional education discipline in the nutrition course of a public university. The types of recipes selected and their respective dietetic/diet therapy principles were quantified. We found that 80% of the selected recipes were based on the nutritional composition of foods and only 20% considered sensory and cultural aspects. In the qualitative analysis, 3 thematic axes were identified: (1) The student's perception of the culinary workshop; (2) The learning in the culinary workshop for their professional practice; (3) The rationalization of food. The workshop was considered an innovative and enriching experience for academic training, mainly due to its interdisciplinarity. It is concluded that the use of culinary workshops as an interdisciplinary didactic-pedagogical strategy in Nutrition courses can bring benefits to the training of future nutritionists (AU).

RESUMEN Los pueblos indígenas continúan enfrentándose a diversas barreras de acceso a servicios de salud y nutrición y tienen poca representatividad e inclusión en los procesos de toma de decisiones sobre el tema. Las herramientas de educación alimentaria y nutricional (EAN) con las que cuenta el país no se adecúan a las realidades agroalimentarias de los pueblos indígenas del Vaupés. Este documento describe un proceso de co-construcción de materiales de EAN enfocados especialmente en gestantes, lactantes y niños y niñas menores de 2 años. El material se construyó con tres comunidades indígenas, un grupo de lideresas indígenas y las instituciones de salud locales del departamento del Vaupés. Se realizaron talleres y entrevistas y revisión documental. A partir de dicha información se construyó un rotafolio con 12 mensajes para fortalecer el inicio de la alimentación complementaria en los niños y las niñas con una visión intercultural y para apoyar los procesos de inducción y reinducción del personal que llega a trabajar al territorio. El material promueve las acciones contempladas por la legislación colombiana en las rutas integrales de atención, pero sobre todo las acciones de cuidado propias de los pueblos indígenas. Esta herramienta de EAN articula ambos saberes y aporta los elementos para promover la salud integralmente desde la perspectiva de las culturas locales.
ABSTRACT Indigenous peoples continue to face various barriers to accessing health and nutrition services, and they have little representation and inclusion in decision-making processes regarding these subjects. The food and nutrition education (FNE) tools currently available in the country are not adapted to the agro-food realities of the indigenous peoples of Vaupés. This document describes a process of co-constructing FNE materials focused on pregnant women, infants, and children under 2 years of age. The material was developed in collaboration with three indigenous communities, a group of indigenous leaders, and local health institutions in the department of Vaupés. The process included workshops, interviews, and documentary reviews. Based on this information, a flip chart with 12 messages was created to strengthen the initiation of complementary feeding in children with an intercultural vision and to support the training processes of health personnel who arrive to work in the territory. The material promotes health interventions that are contemplated by Colombian legislation in the comprehensive care routes, but above all, it prioritizes the health interventions of indigenous peoples. This FNE tool integrates both local knowledge and external expertise, providing the elements to promote a comprehensive approach to health that takes into account the local worldviews.
RESUMO
Objective: This systematic review addressed the effects of the competency level of medical students, physicians, and practitioners in nutrition education for optimum patient care. It also addresses the perceived inadequate didactic contact hours of nutrition education. Method: There were 55 studies selected, and 25 were used for this review including quantitative and qualitative studies. The data were divided into four groups: quantitative data, qualitative data, reports, and news articles. The categorization of the literature was as follows: 17 quantitative, 2 qualitative, 4 news articles, 1 manual, and 1 symposium report. These were evaluated to produce a credible qualitative meta-analysis of available data. Data Sources: The systematic review used databases and citation indexes including Embosses, PubMed, JAMA Network, Medline, Elsevier, and Oxford Academics, these include journals, reports of Symposiums, and news articles to ascertain evidence-based data Results: The findings of this review revealed the significant effect inadequate contact nutrition education has on the competency level of medical students, physicians, and practitioners. Limitations: Limitations of this review include several external factors. Although universities are expected to implement approximately 44 hours of nutrition education for the competency level of medical students and physicians during their tenure, this may not be the case at all schools. Many offer only 15-25 didactics hours. In addition, in some cases, the comparisons are not equal but the researcher was unable to establish the hours and a basic curriculum structure.
RESUMO
@#Introduction: This study entailed the process of developing an online questionnaire to determine awareness, knowledge, attitude and self-efficacy (AKAS) on healthy eating for nutrition education. Currently, there is no local validated questionnaire that can be used to assess AKAS on healthy eating among Filipino adults. Methods: The study developed the questionnaire based on theoretical frameworks and literature review. The draft questionnaire underwent three stages of development: (1) online modified Delphi technique composing of seven subject matter experts (SME) for content validity; (2) online cognitive debriefing with 32 participants (14 nutrition experts and 18 general public) for construct validity; and (3) online pre-testing with 35 participants (non-nutritionists) using test-retest method. Results: For first stage, the questionnaire contained 16 questions for awareness, 17 questions for knowledge, 17 questions for attitude, and 15 questions for self-efficacy. For second stage, significantly different scores (p-value<0.00) between nutritionist experts and general public were observed, showing good construct validity. For third stage, Spearman’s correlation of test-retest method was 0.640. The questionnaire yielded Cronbach’s alpha of 0.467 to 0.923 (round 1) and 0.435 to 0.923 (round 2). A second analysis was done to improve the internal consistency of the questionnaire. By combining two question categories (awareness and knowledge), the Cronbach’s alpha increased to 0.659 (round 2), and by deleting three questions in attitude category, the Cronbach’s alpha improved to 0.626 (round 2). Conclusion: The process used ensured the questionnaire’s validity and reliability. Hence, this online questionnaire may be adopted by parties interested in developing and assessing nutrition education.
RESUMO
Introduction NPO Japan Heart opened a children’s medical center in Cambodia in 2018 to treat pediatric cancer. In many public hospitals in Cambodia, patients’ meals must be prepared by their families with little knowledge about hygiene and nutrition, so patients may not always receive sufficient nutrition for their treatment. We considered a hygienic and nutritious diet essential for effective pediatric cancer treatment. Therefore, the “Japan Heart Children’s Medical Center Meal Project” was launched. The objectives of this study were as follows; (1) to describe that patients receive hygienic and nutritious meals during their hospitalization and after discharge, (2) to measure the effects of providing hospital meals and nutrition education by Cambodian staff who are not qualified dietitians, and to clarify the changes in the nutritional status of pediatric cancer patients as a result of these activities.Methods The target group was pediatric cancer patients and their families. Japanese dietitians and chefs conducted study sessions, created menu standards based on the Minimum Dietary Diversity (MDD) , and trained local staff to provide meals and nutrition education. To provide hospital meals, local staff conducted hygiene management, prepared menus based on standards, and measured eating rates. They also provided nutrition education to the patients and their families, and connected survey before and after education. Nutrition assessment was conducted based on WHO Growth Chart BMI for age by measuring height and weight.Results The MDD achievement rate for the menu increased from 72% to 100% (after intervention 1week-2 week (January, 2020)), and the eating rate increased from 45.9% to a maximum of 80.5% (April, 2020-January, 2022). Surveys before and after nutrition education showed that 89.1% of patient families improved their knowledge and awareness. Height and weight were assessed by BMI, and the percentage of patients with ≤−2SD decreased from 28.1% at admission to 15.9% at discharge. Conclusions In Cambodia where there is no dietitian system, it is important to do activities with contents that is feasible for local staff who have never studied nutrition. In order to further support treatment from the nutritional aspect, it is desirable to develop nutritional human resources in Cambodia.
RESUMO
This study aims to optimize the teaching design of Nutritional Counseling and Education, a core course for registered dietitians in China, to strengthen the cultivation of practical nutrition counseling and education abilities of nutritional professionals in China, and to provide reference for other colleges and universities intending to offer the same type of courses. This study thoroughly examined the course design of Nutrition Counseling and Education in four universities in the United States, and compared it with the course design in Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine. A profound comparison revealed that our course design was basically in line with that of the United States in terms of knowledge and ability cultivation objectives as well as the contents, teaching modes, and performance evaluation methods of theoretical and practical courses. However, there were slight deficiencies in our course design in terms of the integration of theoretical and practical courses, as well as the diversity and depth of practical courses. Our course design can be optimized by developing online teaching resources, drafting practical guidance manuals, increasing the number of practice bases, and enriching the modality and content of practical courses.
