Access to Healthy Food a Critical Strategy for Successful Population Health ...Innovations2Solutions
The diet of many Americans remains unhealthy, contributing to high rates of childhood and adult obesity that are associated with health outcomes such as heart disease and stroke. To promote wellness, the healthcare industry must go beyond treating individuals with chronic conditions to also address
the risks of different population segments before they reach advanced stages of illness.

ABSTRACT
Background: A high consumption o f fruits, vegetables, and whole
grain foods and adequate levels o f physical activity are associated
with a lower risk o f obesity and lower risk o f lifestyle cancers. Re
search suggests that rural communities have a high risk o f unhealthy
behaviors that may contribute to excessive weight gain and risk o f
lifestyle related cancers. The purpose o f this pilot study was to deter
mine the effect o f an educational intervention in a rural Texas com
munity on the intermediate outcomes o f eating behavior (increasing
the intake o f fruits, vegetables, and whole grain foods) and physical
activity behavior, and the distal outcome o f body mass index (BM1).
Methods: The intervention, guided by the Social Cognitive Theory,
was implemented over a 10-month period and included a variety o f
community-based education activities related to nutrition, physical
activity, and cancer in a variety o f settings. The effect o f the inter
vention was assessed by analyzing pre- and post-data (N=67) using
independent and paired samples t-tests and bivariate correlations.
Results: Participants were mainly Hispanic (53.7%) and White
(44.8%). At pre-intervention, 6% o f participants reported consuming
>5 servings o f fruits and vegetables daily, 19.4% consumed >3 serv
ings o f whole grain foods daily, and 85.1% were either overweight
or obese. Only 31% o f participants were aware that cancer risk was
related to overweight at pre-intervention. At post-intervention, His-
panics showed a significant increase in the consumption o f fruits and
vegetables (p<0.05). Participation in sports or physical activity pro
grams showed a significant increase (p<0.05). However, no signifi
cant decrease in BM1 was shown.
Conclusion: This intervention had a limited effect in increasing tar
geted behaviors and no effect on reducing BMI. More assessment is
needed in this rural community to identify barriers to healthy behav
iors and to improve interventions to increase consumption o f fruits,
vegetables, and whole grain foods, levels o f physical activity, and
awareness o f the cancer and obesity relationship.

In a bid to control the prevalence of diabetes among the African Americans, it is important to examine a number of attributes of culture that can empower a person towards changing a behavior. The factors may be positive, existential, and negative. Existential factors may be not harmful but need to be acknowledged. The importance of a family cannot be ignored especially because of the support they provide to diabetic patients. Family is therefore a positive cultural value which will assist in managing diabetes disease. This paper therefore seeks to address how each of the PEN-3 model’s three factors within the dimension of cultural empowerment applies to the African American group.
It is important to explore by identifying several cultural beliefs and practices that are positive, existential and negative. Positive factors are likely to lead to an improvement by reducing the prevalence of diabetes among the African Americans. Existential factors are existing cultural values and beliefs that may have no harmful health consequences. Cultural practices that may act as barriers in controlling the prevalence of diabetes among the African Americans are the negative factors. Example of these negative practices includes poor nutrition leading to obesity.
Positive Factors
The positive factors which will influence management and control of diabetes among the African Americans include spirituality and family. For example, talking about a family affair with diabetes will make a great impact in controlling diabetes among the African Americans. This is because it will create awareness of how to handle and deal with diabetes. Spirituality will have a positive impact in controlling the prevalence of diabetes among the African Americans. African Americans who have spiritual faith are likely to engage in activities which will reduce the prevalence of the disease.
Existential Factors
Existential factors include faith healing. A belief in faith healing is a factor which is likely to reduction in prevalence of diabetes among the African Americans. Individuals who are religious are likely to visit religious leaders to seek healing and intervention. Many individuals confess that they got healed after being prayed for by the Pastors and other religious leaders. This is attributed to believing in faith healing.
Negative Factors
Consumption of “comfort foods” is common in the diet of the African Americans. These foods contain high fat, sugar, and calorie contents. Example of negative cultural factors includes unhealthy traditional foods. Poor nutrition among the African Americans is more l.

Flu Vaccine Alert in Bangalore Karnatakaaddon Scans
As flu season approaches, health officials in Bangalore, Karnataka, are urging residents to get their flu vaccinations. The seasonal flu, while common, can lead to severe health complications, particularly for vulnerable populations such as young children, the elderly, and those with underlying health conditions.
Dr. Vidisha Kumari, a leading epidemiologist in Bangalore, emphasizes the importance of getting vaccinated. "The flu vaccine is our best defense against the influenza virus. It not only protects individuals but also helps prevent the spread of the virus in our communities," he says.
This year, the flu season is expected to coincide with a potential increase in other respiratory illnesses. The Karnataka Health Department has launched an awareness campaign highlighting the significance of flu vaccinations. They have set up multiple vaccination centers across Bangalore, making it convenient for residents to receive their shots.
To encourage widespread vaccination, the government is also collaborating with local schools, workplaces, and community centers to facilitate vaccination drives. Special attention is being given to ensuring that the vaccine is accessible to all, including marginalized communities who may have limited access to healthcare.
Residents are reminded that the flu vaccine is safe and effective. Common side effects are mild and may include soreness at the injection site, mild fever, or muscle aches. These side effects are generally short-lived and far less severe than the flu itself.
Healthcare providers are also stressing the importance of continuing COVID-19 precautions. Wearing masks, practicing good hand hygiene, and maintaining social distancing are still crucial, especially in crowded places.
Protect yourself and your loved ones by getting vaccinated. Together, we can help keep Bangalore healthy and safe this flu season. For more information on vaccination centers and schedules, residents can visit the Karnataka Health Department’s official website or follow their social media pages.
Stay informed, stay safe, and get your flu shot today!

Qualifications:
MBBS (Best Graduate, AIMC Lahore)
FCPS Physiology
ICMT, CHPE, DHPE (STMU)
MPH (GC University, Faisalabad)
MBA (Virtual University of Pakistan)
Learning Objectives:
Describe the primary categories of smells and the concept of odor blindness.
Explain the structure and location of the olfactory membrane and mucosa, including the types and roles of cells involved in olfaction.
Describe the pathway and mechanisms of olfactory signal transmission from the olfactory receptors to the brain.
Illustrate the biochemical cascade triggered by odorant binding to olfactory receptors, including the role of G-proteins and second messengers in generating an action potential.
Identify different types of olfactory disorders such as anosmia, hyposmia, hyperosmia, and dysosmia, including their potential causes.
Key Topics:
Olfactory Genes:
3% of the human genome accounts for olfactory genes.
400 genes for odorant receptors.
Olfactory Membrane:
Located in the superior part of the nasal cavity.
Medially: Folds downward along the superior septum.
Laterally: Folds over the superior turbinate and upper surface of the middle turbinate.
Total surface area: 5-10 square centimeters.
Olfactory Mucosa:
Olfactory Cells: Bipolar nerve cells derived from the CNS (100 million), with 4-25 olfactory cilia per cell.
Sustentacular Cells: Produce mucus and maintain ionic and molecular environment.
Basal Cells: Replace worn-out olfactory cells with an average lifespan of 1-2 months.
Bowman’s Gland: Secretes mucus.
Stimulation of Olfactory Cells:
Odorant dissolves in mucus and attaches to receptors on olfactory cilia.
Involves a cascade effect through G-proteins and second messengers, leading to depolarization and action potential generation in the olfactory nerve.
Quality of a Good Odorant:
Small (3-20 Carbon atoms), volatile, water-soluble, and lipid-soluble.
Facilitated by odorant-binding proteins in mucus.
Membrane Potential and Action Potential:
Resting membrane potential: -55mV.
Action potential frequency in the olfactory nerve increases with odorant strength.
Adaptation Towards the Sense of Smell:
Rapid adaptation within the first second, with further slow adaptation.
Psychological adaptation greater than receptor adaptation, involving feedback inhibition from the central nervous system.
Primary Sensations of Smell:
Camphoraceous, Musky, Floral, Pepperminty, Ethereal, Pungent, Putrid.
Odor Detection Threshold:
Examples: Hydrogen sulfide (0.0005 ppm), Methyl-mercaptan (0.002 ppm).
Some toxic substances are odorless at lethal concentrations.
Characteristics of Smell:
Odor blindness for single substances due to lack of appropriate receptor protein.
Behavioral and emotional influences of smell.
Transmission of Olfactory Signals:
From olfactory cells to glomeruli in the olfactory bulb, involving lateral inhibition.
Primitive, less old, and new olfactory systems with different path
Recomendações da OMS sobre cuidados maternos e neonatais para uma experiência pós-natal positiva.
Em consonância com os ODS – Objetivos do Desenvolvimento Sustentável e a Estratégia Global para a Saúde das Mulheres, Crianças e Adolescentes, e aplicando uma abordagem baseada nos direitos humanos, os esforços de cuidados pós-natais devem expandir-se para além da cobertura e da simples sobrevivência, de modo a incluir cuidados de qualidade.
Estas diretrizes visam melhorar a qualidade dos cuidados pós-natais essenciais e de rotina prestados às mulheres e aos recém-nascidos, com o objetivo final de melhorar a saúde e o bem-estar materno e neonatal.
Uma “experiência pós-natal positiva” é um resultado importante para todas as mulheres que dão à luz e para os seus recém-nascidos, estabelecendo as bases para a melhoria da saúde e do bem-estar a curto e longo prazo. Uma experiência pós-natal positiva é definida como aquela em que as mulheres, pessoas que gestam, os recém-nascidos, os casais, os pais, os cuidadores e as famílias recebem informação consistente, garantia e apoio de profissionais de saúde motivados; e onde um sistema de saúde flexível e com recursos reconheça as necessidades das mulheres e dos bebês e respeite o seu contexto cultural.
Estas diretrizes consolidadas apresentam algumas recomendações novas e já bem fundamentadas sobre cuidados pós-natais de rotina para mulheres e neonatos que recebem cuidados no pós-parto em unidades de saúde ou na comunidade, independentemente dos recursos disponíveis.
É fornecido um conjunto abrangente de recomendações para cuidados durante o período puerperal, com ênfase nos cuidados essenciais que todas as mulheres e recém-nascidos devem receber, e com a devida atenção à qualidade dos cuidados; isto é, a entrega e a experiência do cuidado recebido. Estas diretrizes atualizam e ampliam as recomendações da OMS de 2014 sobre cuidados pós-natais da mãe e do recém-nascido e complementam as atuais diretrizes da OMS sobre a gestão de complicações pós-natais.
O estabelecimento da amamentação e o manejo das principais intercorrências é contemplada.
Recomendamos muito.
Vamos discutir essas recomendações no nosso curso de pós-graduação em Aleitamento no Instituto Ciclos.

2. Health Indicator: Obesity
Epidemiology
• In the U.S., it is estimated that 1 in 3
adults are now obese: 78.6M
• 1 in 20 are considered extremely obese
• Prevalence is similar for men and
women
• Medical costs now exceed 140B
annually
• If you are obese, you will spend, on
average, $1,400 more in medical care
than a non-obese person
(CDC, 2014; WIN, 2014)
3. Most Affected
• Problem worse in rural areas with estimates around
40% of adults (Befort, Nazir, & Perri, 2012)
• Rates (prevalence) are higher among Hispanics
(78.8%), African Americans (76.7%)
Minorities are among the
fastest growing
populations in the U.S.
(CDC, 2014)
4. Health Outcomes
As a person becomes obese, their risks increase for:
6.5-13.7
life years
lost
Heart
disease
Cancer
(breast,
colon)
Stroke
Sleep
apnea
Liver
disease
Type 2
Diabetes
(Kitahara et al., 2014; Lee,
2014)
5. Health Outcomes…Bottom
Line
Compared to a non-obese SMOKER, an obese adult is
more likely to die earlier
But, this is a largely Preventable problem
7. About Our Population
Characteristics
• Hispanics (Latinos)
• Overweight, obese
• Adults 18 and older
• Male and Female
• Low-income
• Any education level
Reason for Selection
• Highest prevalence
rates among all
minorities
Vulnerable
population
• Wages inversely
related to BMI/obesity
• This trend is higher
among Hispanics
(FRAC, 2014)
• Cultural differences
8. Gathering Information

(slender physique=not
healthy vs. obese=healthy)
-Community and provider

Assess comorbidities
Assess SES
-US Census, NHANES,
Florida-charts
9. Gathering Information
Behavioral/Environmental
• Eating/nutritional habits
• Lack of healthy food
options
• Convenience of fast food
• Public source data,
interviews
Educational/Ecological
• Attitudes/knowledge/be
liefs about obesity
• Beliefs about eating
• Social norms of
community and culture
surrounding diseases
and importance of
health diet
• Local surveys, focus
groups
10. Levels of addressing the problem:
Applying the CDC Ecological Model
Individual:
• BMI awareness
• Know what a healthy weight is
for an individual
• Active lifestyle
• Education about nutritional
meals/ healthy living
Community:
• Communities making healthy
food options accessible
• Communities providing options
for nutritional education
• Encouraging an active lifestyle
at work
• Distributing education about the
risks of being obese and eating
poorly
Relationship:
• Families engaged in healthy Hispanic
cooking
• Encouraging an active lifestyle at home
with family members
• Education about the risks of being obese
and eating poorly
Societal:
• Implement health education
• Implement nutritional education
• Shift cultural norms
• Social policies
Normal Weight Obese
11. Variables: Individual Level
BMI (Obesity) Awareness
• Hispanics may rate themselves as ‘more attractive’ with
heavier body weights
• Acculturation in America increases this risk with more
convenient access to less healthy foods, and less healthy
foods in low-income areas (Latino Coalition for a Healthy
California, 2006)
Theory of Planned Behavior
Theory accurately
explains behavior
In this case,
individuals do not
perceive obesity as a
threat nor do their
close contacts
Results in limited
intent to act
12. Variables: Relationship Level
Hispanic Cooking
• “Family unit”
• Many meals are shared
together
• Typical Hispanic diet:
-fruits, vegetables,
beans, grains,
corn/corn products,
dairy
• Many foods are fried with
fats and oils
(Smith, 2010; Clutter & Nieto, n.d.)
These aspects of the
Hispanic culture contribute
to obesity
13. Variables: Societal Level
Cultural Norms
• Men- head of the
house
• Women- tend to
household duties
• Grandparents,
parents, and children
may live in the same
house
• Responsibility to
family
15. Intervention
Organize a Health Fair, “Feria
de Salud para ti,” in a

22. Measuring Success
Design: Quasi-experimental, pre-test/post-test
• Completion of survey at beginning of health fair
• Follow-up phone call or email (preferred
communication method) 6 weeks post
• Patient satisfaction survey with grocery store tour
• Feedback forms for identifying areas for improvement
23. Potential Barriers
1. Health Fair may have limited impact on changing
individual and family behavior
2. May be low attended
3. At risk individuals may not follow up with primary
doctor or have a doctor
However,
Could include an invitation to a series of Hispanic
cooking classes
Could partner with local health department to ensure
at-risk individuals are further evaluated
24. Summary
Secondary prevention efforts incorporating healthy
nutritional habits can impact obesity by
decreasing prevalence
Plan identified 3 variables to target within Hispanic
communities in Florida: Individual awareness,
cooking styles, cultural norms
Conducting Health Fair at local grocery store and
accompanying families/individuals during
shopping is a low-cost, first-step in increasing
healthy nutritional habits
Plan addresses key factors at multiple levels and
acknowledges areas for continued development
25. Take Home Points
1. Obesity is an epidemic within U.S.
and worse for minorities
2. Collaboration among all health
professionals, policy makers,
community officials is needed to
address this problem
3. Any plan must take into account
cultural beliefs
4. Plans must be multidimensional
and ongoing; will require funding
