RESEARCH IN FOCUS

Maternal employment and infant feeding pattern in selected Philippine households

Nutrition surveys have shown that the period of infancy (0-23 months) has remained to be “vulnerable,” and that infant feeding practices and some maternal characteristics are factors that correlate with infants’ and young children’s nutritional and health outcomes.  ABSTRACT >>>POSTER

The association of stunting and metabolic syndrome among Filipino adults

The “Barker’s hypothesis” states that poor fetal and infant growth, as a result of early malnutrition, metabolically imprint the development of Non-Communicable Diseases (NCD) risk factors in later life. Stunting in children, and manifested later in life as short stature in adults, is believed to be one of the consequences of malnutrition in early life and has been found to be associated with some of the cardiovascular risk factors in adults.  ABSTRACT >>>POSTER

Characteristics of households with co-existence of under- and overnutrition

The co-existence of dual forms of malnutrition (i.e. under- and over-nutrition) within the household is a relatively new concern, thus it has not been extensively studied. The degree of double burden of malnutrition in the Philippines can be further examined by directly studying the affected households and by looking at other factors aside from dietary intake, like the kind of lifestyle an affected household maintains. It poses a threat to public health and it needs to be addressed properly.   ABSTRACT >>>POSTER

Nutritional status of children in the super regions
In the 2006 State of the Nation Address (SONA), President Gloria Macapagal Arroyo has grouped the country’s 16 regions into five big regions or what is known as “Super Regions”. These are the North Luzon Agribusiness Quadrangle, the Metro Luzon Urban Beltway, the Central Philippines Super Region, the Mindanao Super Region, and the Cyber Corridor. The move is to boost economic development, focusing on the industry which each region specializes in. A study needs to assess the nutritional status of these vulnerable groups of children, 0 to 10 years old and adolescents 11 to 19 years old to determine the needed investment to protect the human capital for the projected regional economic development.  ABSTRACT >>>POSTER

Some commonly consumed fruits in the Philippines: are they good for diabetics?

Consumption of fruits is commonly restricted for diabetics because of the misconception that all sugars are easily metabolized to glucose. However, different types of sugars are metabolized differently in the body. For example, dietary fiber (DF) and oligosaccharides, which are present in fruits, are slowly digested because of its fibrous/viscous structure and slowly release glucose in the blood, thereby maintaining the circulating blood glucose at normal levels.
