Abstract

Whole-grain foods are good choices for a nutritious diet and play an important role in lowering the risk of chronic diseases. China is a large cereal-consuming country that is experiencing rapid economic growth and an increased burden of noncommunicable diseases. Studies have shown that insufficient intake of whole grains has increased the burden on public health to some extent. Therefore, we aimed to analyze the characteristics and trends of whole-grain consumption in China to contribute to the development of a healthy Chinese population. We searched for important policies, standards, and dietary recommendations related to whole grains through the official websites of the China State Council and its affiliated ministries. Official and public databases, such as the National Bureau of Statistics and the China Health and Nutrition Survey (CHNS), were utilized to obtain data on whole grains and different foods. This approach was employed to gain insight into changes in whole-grain intake levels and dietary structure. Since 2010, the development of whole grains in China has received significant attention. Supportive policies have been continuously introduced on both the supply and demand sides. Numerous whole-grain standards have been developed, and terms and definitions related to whole grains have been preliminarily defined. The consumption of whole grains has fluctuated among Chinese residents since 2000, with a downward trend from 2000 to 2009, followed by an upward trend from 2009 to 2018. However, despite this increasing trend, the whole-grain intake of 80% of the adult residents was still lower than the minimum recommended dietary intake (50[Formula: see text]g/day). Furthermore, the dietary structure of Chinese residents has undergone a significant transformation, characterized by high consumption of high-fat foods, excessive consumption of meat, low intake of dietary fiber, and insufficient consumption of whole grains. These findings highlight the need for further monitoring of whole-grain intake in China. In addition, a sound whole-grain standardization system should be established, and the availability and consumer awareness of whole grains should be improved, with the goal of increasing the intake of whole grains.

全谷物饮食的趋势和特点。
全谷物食品是营养膳食的良好选择,在降低慢性疾病风险方面发挥着重要作用。中国是谷物消费大国,经济增长迅速,非传染性疾病负担加重。研究表明,全谷物摄入不足在一定程度上增加了公众的健康负担。因此,我们旨在分析中国全谷物消费的特点和趋势,为中国人口的健康发展做出贡献。我们通过中国国务院及其所属部委的官方网站搜索了与全谷物相关的重要政策、标准和膳食建议。我们还利用官方和公共数据库,如国家统计局和中国健康与营养调查(CHNS),获取有关全谷物和不同食品的数据。通过这种方法可以深入了解全谷物摄入水平和膳食结构的变化。自 2010 年以来,全谷物食品在中国的发展备受关注。供需双方不断出台扶持政策。制定了众多全谷物标准,初步确定了全谷物相关术语和定义。自 2000 年以来,中国居民的全谷物消费量有所波动,2000 年至 2009 年呈下降趋势,2009 年至 2018 年呈上升趋势。然而,尽管呈上升趋势,80%的成年居民的全谷物摄入量仍低于最低推荐膳食摄入量(50[计算公式:见正文]克/天)。此外,中国居民的膳食结构也发生了显著变化,表现为高脂肪食物摄入量高、肉类摄入量过多、膳食纤维摄入量低以及全谷物摄入量不足。这些发现凸显了进一步监测中国居民全谷物摄入量的必要性。此外,还应建立健全全谷物标准化体系,提高全谷物的可获得性和消费者对全谷物的认知度,从而达到增加全谷物摄入量的目的。
