Summary Statement

In October 2010, the World Council on Genetics, Nutrition and Fitness for Health promoted a scientific meeting in Ancient Olympia, Greece, on the theme Healthy Agriculture, Healthy Nutrition, Healthy People. The meeting focused on evolutionary aspects of human diet through the life cycle in terms of genetic predisposition, overall health, prevention of disease and of unhealthy behaviors, such as poor physical activity, and dietary changes caused by the introduction of modern agriculture, from the Agribusiness to systems of food production, from climate changes to the needs imposed by urban agriculture and architecture. Nutritional medical (mostly cardiological) and political aspects of disease prevention through healthy dietary habits and physical activity have always been seen in isolation. The meeting, the first of its kind, treated such aspects together, recognizing the importance of integrating and initiating a dialogue between these disciplines. The meeting gathered together experts in cardiovascular prevention, nutrition, as well as politicians, for a global discussion of these themes. A summary statement was then compiled, focusing on the main themes on which a consensus had been reached. I strongly believe that such themes have great relevance for public health, raising the need for disseminating them as widely as possible. I am thankful to the Editor of the Italian Journal of Medicine for allowing this summary document to be made available for the first time in Italy.Raffaele De Caterina

Abstract Objectives This research, conducted in rural under served southwest Virginia, determined outcomes for the Healthy People 2020 Nutrition and Weight Status Objective to assess implementation of provider nutrition education in office visits to promote nutrition as a component of routine preventive medicine. Methods The authors' prior research, clinical experiences, familiarity with the region, along with agency reports identified the collaborating clinic as representative of the health disparity region characterized by high childhood obesity rates. Researchers distributed a 14 item survey to participants consenting to an IRB approved protocol, responding anonymously to the paper survey by depositing their completed form in a locked box. Results Participants (n = 384; 80% providing valid responses) were parents or guardians of children 2 to 18 years of age visiting a local pediatrician's office. All responded to have medical insurance, 98% were the primary caregiver of the child and 74% received government aid. Most (77%) caregivers “find fun and interesting way to introduce new foods”. Most (79%) caregivers agreed their child “likes to eat fruits and vegetables”. Caregivers disagreed (84%) to, “A healthy child is a fat child.” Responses by caregivers to, “How often does your provider discuss nutrition topics with you?” were very often (25%); sometimes (32%); occasionally (33%); and never (11%). Responses to, ‘How often would you like your provider to discuss these topics with you?’ were very often (19%); sometimes (30%); occasionally (43%); and never (7%). There was little to no correlation to age of the child on how caregivers responded to “…does your provider discuss nutrition topics with you”? (r = 0.14) and “…would you like your provider to discuss these topics with you?” (r = 0.12). Correlations indicated little to no relationship to children's ages. Conclusions Caregivers in a southwest Virginia clinic reported receiving nutrition education services at a rate exceeding Healthy People 2020 goals and recognized healthy nutrition guidelines. Our findings are consistent with our previous studies, confirming future interventions should target translation of caregivers’ knowledge to children's behaviors to ultimately improve healthy childhood development.
