An IgE-mediated food allergy diagnosis requires both the sensitization (positive test) and the clinical signs and symptoms consistent with IgE-mediated food allergy response. Having the confirmed diagnosis and management plan is crucial because the signs and symptoms appear rapidly after every ingestion of a food with the potential to progress in severity to a life-threatening situation, anaphylaxis. A clear understanding of what constitutes a food allergy, specifically an IgE-mediated food allergy, will facilitate clear communication among healthcare professionals, patients and caregivers, and those in the public.","PeriodicalId":19386,"journal":{"name":"Nutrition Today","volume":"13 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139292827","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The shift from childhood to adolescence is characterized by rapid increases in autonomy of nutritional intake. Given that dietary habits established in adolescence often persist into adulthood, effective nutrition education programs during this period are of particular relevance. Although there are a vast number of existing nutrition education programs aimed at adolescents, we explain why MATCH and similar programs should be expanded across the United States to improve adolescent health outcomes including obesity prevention.","PeriodicalId":19386,"journal":{"name":"Nutrition Today","volume":"136 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135588931","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Faced with a myriad of other challenges in raising newborns came the unexpected reality of not having food in stores that their infants needed to thrive. Quickly, blame was assessed, and less quickly, government and industry solutions to increase supply were set in motion, but the actions taken have not fully resolved shortages. Even more than a year and a half after the severe shortages began, little effort has been made to develop long-term solutions to formula supply issues. It is time for the nutrition community to seriously consider this issue as a major policy agenda and recognize that healthy childhood nutrition starts with secure feeding for all infants regardless of mode or content of feeding. In this article, we will explore what needs to be done in this regard and where the barriers are to implementing long-term solutions to both the formula shortage and supporting breastfeeding families.","PeriodicalId":19386,"journal":{"name":"Nutrition Today","volume":"176 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135588126","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
