          Abstract

          Resumen Fundamento: Analizar qué alimentos y bebidas, de los que se incluyen con más frecuencia en la publicidad buzoneada por los supermercados en el Principado de Asturias, pueden ser considerados prescindibles para el consumo de la población, y comparar su precio con el de los alimentos esenciales. Métodos: Estudio descriptivo, transversal, de la publicidad buzoneada en siete domicilios de Asturias (España) por cuatro cadenas de supermercados entre julio y diciembre de 2018. Se registró el tipo de producto, su clasificación como esencial o prescindible y su precio, comparándolos entre cadenas de supermercados. Resultados: Se identificaron 14.314 productos. “Dulces, bollería, chocolates, azúcares y edulcorantes” (15,3 %), “leche y derivados” (9,7 %), “carnes procesadas” y “bebidas alcohólicas” (8,9 % cada categoría) y “precocinados” (8,4 %). Se observó un predominio de productos considerados prescindibles (61,9 %). Se observaron diferencias significativas en cuanto al tipo de producto según la cadena comercial. El precio medio de los productos esenciales fue menor que el de los prescindibles, tanto globalmente como en cada cadena comercial, siendo la diferencia significativa en una de ellas. Conclusiones: En la publicidad buzoneada por los supermercados en los domicilios de Asturias predominan los productos considerados como prescindibles desde el punto de vista de la salud como ricos en azúcar, carnes procesadas y alcohol. En sentido positivo destaca que el precio de los productos esenciales, como frutas y verduras frescas, fue, de media, significativamente menor que el de los prescindibles.

          Abstract Background: To analyze which foods and beverages, frequently included in advertising mail delivered by supermarkets in the Principality of Asturias, can be considered essential for consumption by the population, as well as to compare their price with that of essential products. Methods: Cross-sectional, descriptive study of supermarket sales circulars delivered to seven homes in Asturias (Spain) by four supermarket chains from July to December 2018. Type of product, its classification as essential or non-essential and mean price of the advertised product were registered. Results: The study identified 14,314 products, mostly belonging to the categories: “cakes, pastries, chocolate, sugar, and sweeteners” (15.3 %), “milk and milk derivatives” (9.7 %), “processed meats”.and “alcoholic beverages” (8.9 % each) and “ready-made” (8.4 %). Products considered to be non-essential were found to predominate (61.9 %). Significant differences in product type were observed between supermarket chains. Essential products had a lower mean price than the non-essential products, both overall and for each supermarket chain, and was significantly lower for one of them. Conclusions: Products which are non-essential from the point of view of health, such as sugar-rich products, processed meats, and alcoholic beverages, dominated the advertising mail delivered door-to-door by supermarkets in the Principality of Asturias. On a positive note, the prices of essential products, such as fresh fruit and vegetables, were, on average, significantly lower than the prices of non-essential products.

          Health effects of dietary risks in 195 countries, 1990–2017: a systematic analysis for the Global Burden of Disease Study 2017

          Summary Background Suboptimal diet is an important preventable risk factor for non-communicable diseases (NCDs); however, its impact on the burden of NCDs has not been systematically evaluated. This study aimed to evaluate the consumption of major foods and nutrients across 195 countries and to quantify the impact of their suboptimal intake on NCD mortality and morbidity. Methods By use of a comparative risk assessment approach, we estimated the proportion of disease-specific burden attributable to each dietary risk factor (also referred to as population attributable fraction) among adults aged 25 years or older. The main inputs to this analysis included the intake of each dietary factor, the effect size of the dietary factor on disease endpoint, and the level of intake associated with the lowest risk of mortality. Then, by use of disease-specific population attributable fractions, mortality, and disability-adjusted life-years (DALYs), we calculated the number of deaths and DALYs attributable to diet for each disease outcome. Findings In 2017, 11 million (95% uncertainty interval [UI] 10–12) deaths and 255 million (234–274) DALYs were attributable to dietary risk factors. High intake of sodium (3 million [1–5] deaths and 70 million [34–118] DALYs), low intake of whole grains (3 million [2–4] deaths and 82 million [59–109] DALYs), and low intake of fruits (2 million [1–4] deaths and 65 million [41–92] DALYs) were the leading dietary risk factors for deaths and DALYs globally and in many countries. Dietary data were from mixed sources and were not available for all countries, increasing the statistical uncertainty of our estimates. Interpretation This study provides a comprehensive picture of the potential impact of suboptimal diet on NCD mortality and morbidity, highlighting the need for improving diet across nations. Our findings will inform implementation of evidence-based dietary interventions and provide a platform for evaluation of their impact on human health annually.

            What is the effectiveness of obesity related interventions at retail grocery stores and supermarkets? —a systematic review

            Background The Prevalence of obesity and overweight has been increasing in many countries. Many factors have been identified as contributing to obesity including the food environment, especially the access, availability and affordability of healthy foods in grocery stores and supermarkets. Several interventions have been carried out in retail grocery/supermarket settings as part of an effort to understand and influence consumption of healthful foods. The review’s key outcome variable is sale/purchase of healthy foods as a result of the interventions. This systematic review sheds light on the effectiveness of food store interventions intended to promote the consumption of healthy foods and the methodological quality of studies reporting them. Methods Systematic literature search spanning from 2003 to 2015 (inclusive both years), and confined to papers in the English language was conducted. Studies fulfilling search criteria were identified and critically appraised. Studies included in this review report health interventions at physical food stores including supermarkets and corner stores, and with outcome variable of adopting healthier food purchasing/consumption behavior. The methodological quality of all included articles has been determined using a validated 16-item quality assessment tool (QATSDD). Results The literature search identified 1580 publications, of which 42 met the inclusion criteria. Most interventions used a combination of information (e.g. awareness raising through food labeling, promotions, campaigns, etc.) and increasing availability of healthy foods such as fruits and vegetables. Few used price interventions. The average quality score for all papers is 65.0%, or an overall medium methodological quality. Apart from few studies, most studies reported that store interventions were effective in promoting purchase of healthy foods. Conclusion Given the diverse study settings and despite the challenges of methodological quality for some papers, we find efficacy of in-store healthy food interventions in terms of increased purchase of healthy foods. Researchers need to take risk of bias and methodological quality into account when designing future studies that should guide policy makers. Interventions which combine price, information and easy access to and availability of healthy foods with interactive and engaging nutrition information, if carefully designed can help customers of food stores to buy and consume more healthy foods.

              Worldwide adherence to Mediterranean Diet between 1960 and 2011

              From the 1960s to the early 21st-century adherence to the Mediterranean diet (MD) declined around the world. This was partly due to the westernization of eating habits. However, in the last decade a new variable came into play, the economic crisis, which may have affected dietary patterns.
