The relationship between school lunch attendance and the food intakes of French schoolchildren aged 3–17 years
Public Health Nutrition, 2015Co-Authors: Carine Dubuisson, Ariane Dufour, Gloria Calamassi-tran, Sandrine Lioret, Lionel Lafay, Jean-luc Volatier, Dominique TurckAbstract:Objective: Recently, school meal composition regulations have been implemented in France in order to improve the nutritional status of children. The present study investigated the link between school lunch attendance and the food intakes of schoolchildren aged 3–17 years. Design: Second French cross-sectional dietary survey (2006–2007). Eating frequencies were assessed for twenty-four food groups with a 7 d food record. Eating locations were recorded for main meals. Food group intakes at weekday lunches were compared for the school canteen and for other locations. The children’s overall dietary intake was compared based on school lunch attendance. Setting: Mainland France. Subjects: Schoolchildren aged 3–17 years (n 1068). Results: Lunchtime food intake differed between the school canteen and other locations. Some intakes at school canteens were more in accordance with the regulations (more fruit and vegetables, fish and dairy products, and less sandwiches, soft drinks, chocolate and confectionery), whereas others highlighted needs for improvement (more sweet biscuits and Pastries, ice cream and dairy desserts, pizzas and salty Pastries). Many of these differences were also observed in the children’s overall diet: children regularly attending school lunches ate more mashed fruit, fish and sweet biscuits or Pastries, and less sandwiches and soft drinks. The link between school lunch attendance and overall diet was less pronounced in secondary-school children. Conclusions: School canteen attendance is associated with both potentially beneficial and deleterious differences in the lunchtime and overall diets of French children. These findings are important to consider when setting national regulations for school meal composition.

Momentary affect, stress coping, and food intake in mother-child dyads.
Health Psychology, 2019Co-Authors: Tyler B Mason, Jimi Huh, Sydney G. O’connor, Susan M. Schembre, Daniel Chu, Genevieve F DuntonAbstract:Momentary affect and stress in mothers and their children may be an important predictor of food intake in the natural environment. This study hypothesized that there would be parallel actor and partner effects such that mothers' and children's negative affect (NA), positive affect (PA), and ability to cope with stress would be associated with their own and the other dyad member's unhealthy and healthy food intake in a similar pattern. Participants included 202 mother-child dyads (child age range = 8-12 years) who responded to randomly prompted ecological momentary assessment surveys via smartphone up to 7 times per day over 8 days, excluding time at school. At each prompt, mothers and children reported on their current NA, PA, and ability to cope with stress and foods consumed in the past 2 hr. Mothers' momentary ability to cope with stress predicted their own and their child's Pastries/sweets intake and their own fries/chips intake, and children's momentary ability to cope with stress predicted their own Pastries/sweets intake. Mothers and children who reported higher NA on average consumed more Pastries/sweets, and children with higher NA on average consumed more fast food. Finally, mothers' momentary PA predicted their own fruit/vegetable consumption. Findings provided evidence that the affect and ability to cope with stress of children and mothers predicted subsequent food intake. Given both actor and partner effects, the results show that targeting momentary mothers' and children's ability to cope with stress may have the greatest effect on reducing unhealthy food intake.

Concordance and predictors of concordance of children’s dietary intake as reported via ecological momentary assessment and 24 h recall
Public Health Nutrition, 2018Co-Authors: Sydney G. O’connor, Eldin Dzubur, Wangjing Ke, Susan M. Schembre, Genevieve F DuntonAbstract:To provide preliminary evidence in support of using ecological momentary assessment (EMA), a real-time data capture method involving repeated assessments, to measure dietary intake in children by examining the concordance of children’s dietary reports through EMA and 24 h recall. Children completed eight days of EMA surveys, reporting on recent dietary intake of four pre-specified food categories (‘Fruits or Vegetables’, ‘Chips or Fries’, ‘Pastries or Sweets’, ‘Soda or Energy Drinks’), and completed two 24 h recalls during the same period. Concordance of children’s reports of intake during matched two-hour time windows from EMA and 24 h dietary recall was assessed using cross-tabulation. Multilevel logistic regression examined potential person-level (i.e. sex, age, ethnicity and BMI category) predictors of concordance. Children in Los Angeles County, USA, enrolled in the Mothers’ and Their Children’s Health (MATCH) study. One hundred and forty-four 144 children (53 % female; mean age 9·6 (sd 0·9) years; 34·0 % overweight/obese). Two-hour concordance varied by food category, ranging from 64·9 % for ‘Fruits/Vegetables’ to 89·9 % for ‘Soda/Energy Drinks’. In multilevel models, overweight/obese (v. lean) was associated with greater odds (OR; 95 % CI) of concordant reporting for ‘Soda/Energy Drinks’ (2·01; 1·06, 4·04) and ‘Pastries/Sweets’ (1·61; 1·03, 2·52). Odds of concordant reporting were higher for Hispanic (v. non-Hispanic) children for ‘Pastries/Sweets’ (1·55; 1·02, 2·36) and for girls (v. boys) for ‘Fruits/Vegetables’ (1·36; 1·01, 1·83). Concordance differed by food category as well as by person-level characteristics. Future research should continue to explore use of EMA to facilitate dietary assessment in children.

Nutritional contributions of food pantries and other sources to the diets of rural, Midwestern food pantry users in the USA
The British journal of nutrition, 2020Co-Authors: Yibin Liu, Nicole E Desmond, Breanne N. Wright, Regan L Bailey, Tianning Dong, Bruce A. Craig, Heather A. Eicher-millerAbstract:Food pantries provide free food to individuals at nutritional risk given lack of available foods. Frequent use of food pantries is associated with higher dietary quality; however, neither the nutrient contributions of food pantries to participant diets nor their relationship with household food security are known. This cross-sectional analysis used secondary data from rural food pantry participants, including sociodemographic characteristics, household food security and 24-h recalls. Mean intakes of selected food groups and nutrients from food pantries, supermarkets, other stores and restaurants, and other were compared by one-way ANCOVA. Interaction effects of household food security with food sources were evaluated by two-way ANCOVA. About 40 % of participants' dietary intake came from food pantries. Mean intakes of fibre (P < 0·0001), Na (P < 0·0001), fruit (P < 0·0001), grains (P < 0·0001) and oils (P < 0·0001) were higher from food pantries compared with all other sources, as were Ca (P = 0·004), vitamin D (P < 0·0001) and K (P < 0·0001) from food pantries compared with two other sources. Percentage total energy intake (%TEI) from added sugars (P < 0·0001) and saturated fat (P < 0·0001) was higher from supermarkets than most other sources. Significant interaction effects were observed between food sources and household food security for vegetables (P = 0·01), Na (P = 0·01) and %TEI from saturated fat (P = 0·004), with food-insecure participants having significantly higher intakes from food pantries and/or supermarkets compared with all other sources. Future interventions may incorporate these findings by providing education on purchasing and preparing healthy meals on limited budgets, to complement foods received from pantries, and by reducing Na in pantry environments.

A review of the food security, diet and health outcomes of food pantry clients and the potential for their improvement through food pantry interventions in the United States
Physiology & behavior, 2020Co-Authors: Heather A. Eicher-millerAbstract:Food pantries are community-based organizations that provide food to prevalently low and very low food secure households, presenting an opportune point of contact and potential site for interventions. This review evaluates the food security, dietary quality, dietary intake and health outcomes of U.S. adults served by food pantries and the potential for interventions based in food pantries to improve these outcomes. Results from the 15 included studies showed the prevalence of food insecurity and very low food security among food pantry clients was higher than national estimates at up to 89% and 52%, respectively; dietary quality was up to 20 points lower on the Healthy Eating Index compared with U.S. adults; intake for 16 nutrients did not meet the Estimated Average Requirement or exceed the Average Intake for 30% to 100% of clients; and a strikingly high prevalence of obesity, diabetes, heart disease and related conditions, and depressive symptoms were present among U.S. food pantry users. Interventions in food pantries have been successful in improving food security, weight and diabetic control but not dietary quality or intake. However, these few interventions hold promise and present a need for further research investment to address food security, dietary intake and health outcomes among food pantry clients.

The development and use of an assessment tool to capture changes in the food pantry nutrition environment and system of food distribution.
Translational behavioral medicine, 2019Co-Authors: Lacey Mccormack, Dan Remley, Heather A. Eicher-miller, Lindsay Moore, Suzanne StlukaAbstract:Rural food pantries aim to improve food access but low-quality nutritional environments and prescribed systems of food distribution may limit these efforts. Voices for Food (VFF) is a six-state U.S. Department of Agriculture-funded intervention, including community coaching and a VFF Food Pantry Toolkit to guide food pantries in transitioning to a healthier nutritional environment and a food distribution system based on client choice and support.The purpose of the article was to create a novel tool (MyChoice Scorecard) to assess the food pantry environment, including client choice, and to use the tool to quantify change in VFF intervention pantries compared with comparison pantries longitudinally over the 3-year study period. Food pantries in rural, high-poverty counties in six Midwestern states participated in a longitudinal, matched treatment and comparison study. Pantries were assigned to treatment (n = 12) or comparison (n = 12) group. A MyChoice Scorecard was completed pre-, mid- and post-intervention. Mixed models were generated with MyChoice Scorecard score as the outcome and included main effects for intervention group and time since pre-intervention visit. Pre-intervention, MyChoice scores did not differ significantly between intervention and comparison pantries (8.5 ± 1.5 vs. 9.1 ± 1.5, p = .19). Marginal mean values for MyChoice Scorecard score differed significantly between treatment and comparison groups at both mid-intervention (14.6 ± 1.4 vs. 10.8 ± 1.4, p = .05) and post-intervention (21.8 ± 1.2 vs. 11.8 ± 1.2, p < .001). The MyChoice Scorecard, either alone or as part of the VFF intervention, can be used by community public health professionals, such as Extension staff, to document and facilitate meaningful change in the nutritional environment of food pantries.

The relationship between school lunch attendance and the food intakes of French schoolchildren aged 3–17 years
Public Health Nutrition, 2015Co-Authors: Carine Dubuisson, Ariane Dufour, Gloria Calamassi-tran, Sandrine Lioret, Lionel Lafay, Jean-luc Volatier, Dominique TurckAbstract:Objective: Recently, school meal composition regulations have been implemented in France in order to improve the nutritional status of children. The present study investigated the link between school lunch attendance and the food intakes of schoolchildren aged 3–17 years. Design: Second French cross-sectional dietary survey (2006–2007). Eating frequencies were assessed for twenty-four food groups with a 7 d food record. Eating locations were recorded for main meals. Food group intakes at weekday lunches were compared for the school canteen and for other locations. The children’s overall dietary intake was compared based on school lunch attendance. Setting: Mainland France. Subjects: Schoolchildren aged 3–17 years (n 1068). Results: Lunchtime food intake differed between the school canteen and other locations. Some intakes at school canteens were more in accordance with the regulations (more fruit and vegetables, fish and dairy products, and less sandwiches, soft drinks, chocolate and confectionery), whereas others highlighted needs for improvement (more sweet biscuits and Pastries, ice cream and dairy desserts, pizzas and salty Pastries). Many of these differences were also observed in the children’s overall diet: children regularly attending school lunches ate more mashed fruit, fish and sweet biscuits or Pastries, and less sandwiches and soft drinks. The link between school lunch attendance and overall diet was less pronounced in secondary-school children. Conclusions: School canteen attendance is associated with both potentially beneficial and deleterious differences in the lunchtime and overall diets of French children. These findings are important to consider when setting national regulations for school meal composition.
