The environmental impact of beef and ultra-processed food consumption in Brazil
CONCLUSIONS: Although the environmental footprints associated with beef consumption are higher, dietary patterns with lower consumption of beef and ultra-processed foods combined showed the greatest reduction in carbon and water footprints in Brazil. The high consumption of beef and ultra-processed foods is harmful to human health, as well as to the environment, thus their reduction is beneficial to both.PMID:38173129 | DOI:10.1017/S1368980023002975 (Source: Public Health Nutrition)

Urban school neighborhoods dominated by unhealthy food retailers and advertisements in Greater Tunis: a geospatial study in the midst of the nutrition transition
CONCLUSIONS: School neighborhood food environments included predominantly unhealthy retailers and advertisements. Mapping of LMIC food environments is crucial to document the impact of the nutrition transition on children's nutritional status. This will inform policies and interventions to curb the emergent childhood obesity epidemic.PMID:38169454 | DOI:10.1017/S1368980023002860 (Source: Public Health Nutrition)

Assessing association of household diet diversity with mother's time-use on productive and reproductive activities - A case for gender sensitive social safety nets
CONCLUSION: The findings highlight propensity to achieve "High HDDS" in Bihar increased with mothers allocating time towards reproductive activities, while it had an opposing effect with mothers allocating time on productive activities. Our study highlights that the policies that encourage women's participation in agriculture or livestock should acknowledge the unpaid nature of some of the productive activities and design programs to improve economic agency of women to actuate the true potential of agriculture-nutrition pathways.PMID:38171547 | DOI:10.1017/S1368980023002963 (Source: Public Health Nutrition)

Development and application of a 2-step methodology to select a reference society providing Dietary Reference Values for national implementation
CONCLUSIONS: To manage heterogeneous and complex data from several societies, adopting a 2-step methodology including fewer nutrients and more societies during Step 1, and fewer societies but all nutrients in Step 2, was very helpful. With some exceptions, we selected EFSA as the main society to provide DRVs for Switzerland.PMID:38163970 | DOI:10.1017/S1368980023002902 (Source: Public Health Nutrition)

Implementation and effectiveness of a school-based intervention to increase adherence to national school meal guidelines: a nonrandomized controlled trial
CONCLUSIONS: A school-based intervention with low intensity, based on trained teachers as internal facilitators, can increase adherence to the national school meal guideline among Norwegian primary schools, irrespective of local socioeconomic conditions. Implementation fidelity, at an organizational level, may be a useful predictor for intervention outcomes in schools.PMID:38164650 | DOI:10.1017/S1368980023002938 (Source: Public Health Nutrition)
