摘要

本研究旨在调查沙特婴幼儿膳食补充剂使用的患病率和决定因素。通过在多个社交媒体平台上发布的在线调查，对居住在沙特阿拉伯的156名沙特婴幼儿及其母亲进行了横断面抽样调查。收集的数据包括社会人口统计、母亲的身高和体重、喂养方法、类型、开始以及婴幼儿使用补充剂的频率。在这项研究中，63%的婴幼儿正在服用膳食补充剂。超过四分之三的母乳喂养的婴幼儿服用膳食补充剂。所有服用膳食补充剂的婴幼儿都服用维生素D;然而，复合维生素和矿物质、铁和维生素C补充剂的使用却很少被报道。在家庭中独生子女的婴儿和学步儿童中，服用补品的比例明显更高，这些孩子的母亲年龄更小，也没有工作。干预措施的目标是提高孕产妇对沙特阿拉伯幼儿服用补充剂重要性的认识。

Prevalence and Determinants of Dietary Supplements Use Among Saudi Infants and Toddlers

This study aimed to investigate the prevalence and determinants of dietary supplement use in Saudi infants and toddlers. A cross-sectional sample of 156 Saudi infants and toddlers and their mothers who reside in Saudi Arabia was recruited via an online survey that was distributed on multiple social media platforms. Data collected include sociodemographic, maternal height and weight, feeding practices, types, initiation, and frequency of supplements use in infants and toddlers. Sixty-three percent of the infants and toddlers included in this study were using dietary supplements. Over three-quarters of the breastfed infants and toddlers were on dietary supplements. All infants and toddlers who were taking dietary supplements used vitamin D; yet, the use of multivitamins and minerals, iron, and vitamin C supplements was not frequently reported. The use of supplements was significantly higher among infants and toddlers who were the only children in the family and had younger and unemployed mothers. Interventions that target increasing maternal awareness concerning the importance of supplement use among young children in Saudi Arabia are needed.

期刊介绍： Current Topics in Nutraceutical Research is an international, interdisciplinary broad-based peer reviewed scientific journal for critical evaluation of research on chemistry, biology and therapeutic applications of nutraceuticals and functional foods. The major goal of this journal is to provide peer reviewed unbiased scientific data to the decision makers in the nutraceutical and food industry to help make informed choices about development of new products. To this end, the journal will publish two types of review articles. First, a review of preclinical research data coming largely from animal, cell culture and other experimental models. Such data will provide basis for future product development and/or human research initiatives. Second, a critical evaluation of current human experimental data to help market and deliver the product for medically proven use. This journal will also serve as a forum for nutritionists, internists, neurologists, psychiatrists, and all those interested in preventive medicine. The common denominator of all of the topic to be covered by the journal must include nutraceuticals and/functional food. The following is an example of some specific areas that may be of interest to the journal. i) Role of vitamins, minerals, antioxidants and phytonutrients on cardiovascular health, cancer, diabetes, ocular health, mental health, men’s health, women’s health, infant nutrition, ii) Role of herbals on human health, iii) Dietary supplements and sleep, iv) Components of diet that may have beneficial effect on human health, v) regulation of apoptosis and cell viability, vi) Isolation and characterization of bioactive components from functional foods, vii) Nutritional genomics, and viii) Nutritional proteomics.
