{"title":"Influence of Front-of-Pack Nutrition Labelling on Portuguese Consumers’ Food Preferences - a Preliminary Study","authors":"Joana Marcos, Duarte Gomes, M. Lídia Palma, M. João Cebola, Paula Pereira, Marisa Nicolai, Raquel Carriço","doi":"10.22259/2637-5583.0601002","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.22259/2637-5583.0601002","url":null,"abstract":"Abstract Background: Nutrition labelling, as a way of communication between consumers and the food industry, allows them to make more conscious, informed and safe choices when purchasing food products. Simplified nutrition labelling systems are considered one of the best tools for the promotion of healthy eating habits. Aim: This cross-sectional descriptive study aims to evaluate the use of the front-of-pack (FOP) nutrition labelling in the food choices of Portuguese consumers, as a complement to the Nutritional Declaration, through an online survey. Methods: The total sample consists of 120 Portuguese individuals, aged between 18-55 years. Data was collected during the January of 2022. Socio-demographic data, knowledge about food labelling and knowledge about FOP nutrition labelling systems (Nutrition Traffic Light and Nutri-Score) were collected. Results: The results highlight a statistically significant association between gender and the choice to read food labels (p=0.004) and reveal that information expressed on nutrition labels affects consumers’ decision (p=0.015), both at the time of purchase. FOP system (p=0.014) as well as location (p=0.010) was preferred to traditional Nutrition Declaration, regarding food label reading. The interest in the product’s nutritional value appears to be the main significant motive for influencing label reading (p=0.021). No other statistical relevance was found. Conclusion: To sum up, when purchasing, the information, location and design of nutrition labels tends to affect consumers’ decisions. Thus, food education campaigns amongst the population are necessary to minimize nutritional literacy gaps. However, future studies are needed to assess the impact of the Nutri-Score system on consumers’ food choices.

The aim of this study was to evaluate the foliar application of chitosan (0, 10, 25 and 50 mg/L), hydrogen peroxide (0, 50, 100 and 150 µM) and sodium nitroprusside (0, 50, 100 and 150 µM) on cape gooseberry plants and its effect on the metabolite content, antioxidant capacity and digestive enzyme inhibitory activity of leaves. Results showed that foliar application of chitosan at 25 and 50 mg/L or sodium nitroprusside 100 and 150 µM during cultivation of cape gooseberry significantly improved the phenolic compounds, flavonoids, proline, and total chlorophyll contents of methanolic extracts of leaves, enhancing its antioxidant capacity, as well as α-amylase and α-glucosidase inhibitory activities, without affecting the growth of the plants, whereas hydrogen peroxide 150 µM improved the flavonoid content and pancreatic lipase inhibitory activity, however, this treatment decreased the proline content of leaves. Therefore, elicitors as chitosan and sodium nitroprusside, applied at low concentrations during growth of plants, could be considered as a tool to improve the nutraceutical potential of cape gooseberry leaves.","PeriodicalId":16096,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Food and Nutrition Research","volume":"40 11","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2022-12-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41277302","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Associations of serum phosphate were examined with identified dietary patterns, organic (plant and animal-based) and inorganic, and whether the patients fully or partially adhered to the phosphate binders. We found a significant difference in phosphate binders on animal and plant sources, high with the animal pattern. However, our study showed no significant correlation in serum phosphate levels. This result could be due to phosphate bioavailability differing by food source and adherence of phosphate binders, which reflect the quantity of phosphate absorbed in the intestines.

The rapid spread of the disease in almost all parts of the country resulted in people having to stay at home, becoming socially distant, and cities being closed, creating enormous health, economic, environmental, and social challenges for the entire population. The aim of this study was to examine how these preventive measures affected the mental, physical, and nutritional health of the Indian population. A cross-sectional web-based study was conducted on the Indian population to assess the impact of COVID -19 on mental health, and changes in daily lifestyle such as diet, physical activity, and sleep patterns using a validated questionnaire. Data were collected between August 15, 2020, and October 15, 2020, using the Google Form platform. A total of 772 participants (394 men and 378 women) completed the study. The median age of the participants in the study was 32 years and the majority of the participants belonged to the age group of 21–30 years. Out of 772 participants, 286 participants (37%) had no change in their dietary intake. And 384 participants (49.70%) increased their dietary intake. There was a significant association seen between dietary intake and change in BMI (p <0.001). There was a significant change observed in the sleeping pattern when compared pre and during the covid phase (p <0.001). We conclude that there were few positive and negative impacts of covid-19 on the dietary pattern, mental health, and physical activity. These observations have potential implications that could help to identify the possible factors for change in the dietary, mental and physical behavior and impede through proper counseling.
