    Notes: Statistics show an increase in the number of family outbreaks offood poisoning. Contends that many handling techniques necessary toprevent outbreaks of food-borne disease are unknown, misunderstood andnot followed in the home. Some food preparation operations are morefrequently implicated in outbreaks of food poisoning than others. Arguesthat instead of promoting general compliance with the food hygieneprinciples of good catering practice, the food safety educator shouldfocus the attention of the consumer on those factors which are criticalto safety of the product. Suggests that essential safe food handlingtechniques could be incorporated into recipes in magazines and cookerybooks which are used by many consumers. Presents a systematic approachto analysing recipes for potential hazards, based on the HACCP system;illustrates the approach with a relevant example.

    Notes: Outlines a health promotion programme run in conjunction with a local Asda supermarket in Ayr. The event focused on the store itself. Community dietitians were available for specific advice, and a team of student dietitians conducted evaluations, circulated special discount coupons, and handed out health promotion material. Throughout the store there were specific health messages following NACNE and COMA report guidelines. A treasure hunt and food pyramid both acted as additional activities for customers. Publicity prior to the event included local radio and press advertising. The event was evaluated as a success and shoppers said they would like more such events.

    Notes: Diets, notably diets aimed at weight reduction, appear regularly in women's general interest magazines. Recently there has also been an increase in publications aimed at health promotion or slimming, and in the availability of "slimming aids". The efficacy of some of these has been questioned, and concern expressed over the nutritional adequacy of some diets. Investigates the nutritional adequacy of nine diets drawn from a variety of publications. Most diets were aimed at weight loss, but some were promoted as a "new way of life", e.g. food combining. Energy levels supplied by all diets were below current recommendations, thus weight reduction would be the result of low energy intakes. Overall, the nutritional value of the diets was reasonable.The main concern was low iron intakes supplied by the Food Combining for Health diet, where the diet is followed for long periods.

    Notes: Duodenal action of rapidly digested carbohydrate can induce an intense satiation shortly after the meal, which conditions down the volume of food eaten in the later part of the meal. In contrast, after a meal rich in spreading fat, separation of fat above the aqueous contents of the stomach is liable to delay the fat's emptying and hence its contact with satiety receptors in the small intestine; eaters are therefore unlikely to learn to eat less of a menu rich in separated fat. Yet the delayed emptying may prolong the period of digestion and absorption of separated fat beyond that for the same amount of fat emulsified or bound in the aqueous phase. Hence, separating fat might help to delay better the rise of appetite for the next meal several hours later. These ideas explain some of the diversity of claims about satiation from fats in foods. Observes how individuals learn from the post-ingestional effects on appetite of variants of the foods they choose routinely.

    Notes: Nutrition is one of the critical factors which influence health, growth and development among small children, but which also affects the health of those children when they become adults. Attitudes towards foods are often determined very early in life and the promotion of "healthy" eating patterns among all age groups depends partly on understanding the factors which influence food choice decision making and the factors which determine attitudes towards food and food choice. Food choice, however, is still often characterized by an "all or nothing" approach, whereas a balance which allows a child to feel "normal" while healthy eating patterns are discretely promoted is often of greater long-term benefit. This article highlights some recent controversies in nutrition for very young children and indicates what recent research in this area means in practice.

    Notes: Dietary phytoestrogens are currently being extensively investigated because of the possibility that they may protect against disease. Soya isoflavones, in particular, are attracting considerable attention because there is increasing evidence that they may protect against breast and prostate cancers and heart disease and osteoporosis. Considers the evidence for disease prevention by phytoestrogens and the biological mechanisms by which they may act. Explores dietary sources of phytoestrogens and the production of both traditional and non-traditional soya foods. Considers the potential hazards of dietary phytoestrogens, including their use in infant formulas and associated, possibly harmful, developmental effects, and the possibility that they may display the harmful oestrogenic effects of oral contraceptives by increasing risk of deep vein thrombosis (blood clots). Finally, assesses the benefits versus the risk of dietary phytoestrogens.

    Notes: Reviews the potential impact of processing procedures on carotenoid form and content. Fruit and vegetables, in particular, are abundant sources of carotenoids in the diet. Many fruit and vegetables are subjected to various types of processing prior to consumption. Fruit may be canned, dried or processed into juices, while vegetables may be blanched, dehydrated, frozen, canned and also processed into juices. Factors such as heat, light and oxygen exposure may have detrimental effects (including destruction and isomerization, with loss of vitamin A activity), while some procedures may bring benefits (such as increased unit content and retention, breakdown of inhibitory structures and enhanced bioavailability). Concludes that the extent and nature of processing can have a significant impact on the form and content of carotenoids in processed fruit and vegetables.

    Notes: Individuals who ascend to altitude too rapidly invariably develop acute mountain sickness (AMS) although a high carbohydrate diet may lessen these symptoms. Specific questions addressed in this study were: changes in diet prior to sojourning at altitude; changes in food consumption/nutritional intake, food acceptability, flavour and taste intensities. Nineteen subjects assembled for three days at sea level for baseline measurements consuming a diet of dehydrated rations. This regimen was repeated 18 days later in the Bolivian Andes at approximately 5,600m once subjects were acclimatised. Results confirm a common phenomenon; a reduced dietary intake and body weight loss at high altitude. Other results, flavour and taste intensities and overall food acceptability indicate the suitability of these foods in both environments.

    Notes: The issues of microbial food poisoning are never far from the headlines. Of particular concern is the emergence of strains of increased virulence, for example Escherichia coli 0157. As we are likely to be faced with a succession of food hygiene challenges in our kitchens, do consumers have access to the information they need and is it presented in such a way that it encourages and motivates towards good food handling and food hygiene practices? This paper concentrates on a range of food hygiene information provided by the Government, the Health Education Authority and the media. The information is examined with respect to availability, content and context. Observations are made from sociological, scientific and visual communications perspectives.

    Notes: A review of the food safety implications of crops contaminated by mycotoxins. Each of the most important mycotoxins, aflatoxins, ochratoxin A, and patulin, are described individually with details of national and international safety evaluations and the UK's controls to protect consumer safety. The state of play of EC proposals to harmonise national laws on mycotoxins is also described. Consumer perceptions of risk from these natural toxicants are assessed. Mycotoxins present a potential threat to consumer safety. Continued vigilance is necessary to ensure that regulatory and advisory limits are complied with. MAFF surveys regularly check the foods most at risk of contamination and where a problem is unearthed, consumers and industry are alerted as soon as possible through rapid publication procedures. Subsequent monitoring of the situation ensures that effective action is taken to protect consumer safety.

    Notes: The paper describes the results of consumer research undertaken by the Co-operative Wholesale Society which influenced it to develop a code of practice for labelling pre-packed foods. Areas where consumers feel they are misled by current labelling practice are highlighted. The content of the code is described against a background of current legal requirements. Its principal areas of application concern the name of the food, origin marking, presentation, nutrition labelling and claims and quantitative ingredient declaration. The further development of the code is outlined by reference to industry and consumer contributions and its potential within the Food Standards Agency.

    Notes: A proposal for the addition of yeast in routine and clinical diets for optimal nutrition of human beings was made on the premiss of its salubrious effects in laboratory and farm animals. The strong points in favour of the supplement are its ancient use in brewery and bakery production for human consumption, its cultural acceptability and freedom from pathogenicity, allergenicity, toxicity or carcinogenicity. Recommendations for clinical trials with humans were made to confirm a list of tentative advantages obtained in trials with animals.

    Notes: Discusses the financial implications of maintaining acceptable levels of food safety. The case of BSE is used as an example - loss of export market, fall in domestic sales, changes in consumption, large expenditure, cost of practice changes in rearing and slaughtering animals. There is a trade-off between safety and costs. How much safety can be expected? There must be an optimum level of safety. There are few ways in which a market economy can "fail" in providing the optimum - asymmetry in knowledge of risks; aspects of food safety which are public goods; social costs of food safety and the divergence between objective scientific evidence and consumer perception.

    Notes: Presents the compositional and spoilage changes in fish - useful for determining the freshness for eating. Chemical and microbiological methods are focused on. Breakdowns in chemical components lead to detectable changes - odour, flavour and texture. Changes to the fats, protein, nucleotides, non-protein nitrogen compounds and enzymes are examined. These means are more valid when dealing with preserved and frozen fish and can give accurate assessment as to fish quality.

    Notes: It is well documented that women are prone to constipation-type symptoms premenstrually. An increase in non-starch polysaccharide intake of 5.9 g/d in the form of palatable drink has proved to be of symptomatic benefit during the premenstrual phase of the cycle resulting in a significant increase in stool frequency, significant decreases in straining at the end of defecation and feelings of incomplete evacuation and the production of less well formed stools.

    Notes: The aim of the present study was to reveal if sensory properties of smoked food could be considered as decisive in the determination of one product's preference over another. In addition to this, this work tries to clarify whether the flavour obtained in commercial smoked products was noticed and clearly recognized. This study consisted of two parts; first, a preference testing without physical products (recalled preference) presented using a nine-point hedonic scale, and second, a difference testing with selected products using the triangular test. Consumers showed a preference for non-smoked products, particularly for cheese, sausages and chips. The first preference dimension of the internal preference mapping (MDPREF) analysis accounted for 74.6 per cent of total variation indicating overall agreement about likings relating these products, with cheese being the most acceptable overall. Analyzing triangular test results it may be concluded that other factors but sensory ones must be defining consumer representations of smoked food, without a correspondence with its real organoleptic properties.

    Notes: A three-year consumer research programme, using both qualitative and quantitative techniques, was undertaken to assess whether additional voluntary nutrition information for calories and fat would aid consumers' ability to use the nutrition information that is given on food packs. A variety of label formats was investigated. The research established that providing information for calories and fat per serving, either separately from the nutrition panel or highlighted within the nutrition panel, and providing Guideline Daily Amounts (GDAs) for calories and fat helped to make the nutrition information more accessible to consumers. GDAs were felt by consumers to be new and useful information. The research findings were developed into voluntary industry guidelines by an IGD working group consisting of representatives of manufacturers, retailers, consumer organizations, nutrition scientists and government. The guidelines represent best practice for industry.

    Notes: The purpose of this study was to determine body composition, energy balance and tendencies towards eating disorders of female competitive athletes in two countries, USA and Greece. Data were collected using similar methodology in both countries during the non-competitive (training) and the competitive seasons. Forty-two athletes and 11 controls in the USA and 35 athletes and ten controls in Greece participated in the study. Comparison of the results between the countries showed that US athletes weighed more than Greek athletes but there was no significant difference in the percentage of body fat between the two groups. No significant differences were found in the energy intakes between athletes in either country. Athletes appeared to be in negative energy balance (-380 to -580 kcals daily) in both seasons, in both countries.

    Notes: A survey of 12 residential homes assessed the nutritional balance of the meals selected and consumed by the elderly residents. With the increasing age of the population and the demand for professional care there is an increasing pressure on the professional caterer and carer to meet the nutritional needs of those in their care. However the ongoing concern over the safety of various foods and the requirement for residential homes to remain within budget can have an impact on the food offered to and consumed by the elderly person. The results show a general satisfaction by the consumer with the food supplied but the research indicates that the meals are not generally nutritionally balanced. The overall concern of the providers is to remain within budget and any nutritional balance of meals is obtained more by accident than as a planned policy. If this is an indication of the situation in Northern Ireland there is the possibility that throughout the United Kingdom there may be similar widespread imbalance in the nutritional provision to the older members of the population.

    Notes: The role of diet in contributing to the incidence of coronary heart disease, cancer and other common Western diseases is attracting increasing attention. Foods which provide different biologically active compounds, such as phyto-oestrogens, have been extensively studied and epidemiological evidence suggests that populations consuming a diet high in phyto-oestrogens have a lower risk of these diseases. This paper reviews some of the key studies on soy isoflavones which suggest that the incorporation of soy protein into the British diet may offer important health benefits. Non-steroidal dietary oestrogens are found in high concentrations in the traditional diets of the Far East, and by vegans who consume large amounts of soy protein. Consumption of isoflavones across Asia varies considerably and it is estimated that between 25 to 45mg of isoflavones is consumed daily, compared to as little as 5mg daily in Western countries. It is well established that modification of dietary fat, especially saturated fat, soluble fibre and total calories have a role in coronary heart disease risk. In a meta-analysis of 38 controlled trials on soy proteins, it was concluded that significant reductions in serum and total LDL cholesterol could be achieved. A wide range of epidemiological data shows strong correlations between a diet high in soy protein and vegetables and a reduced risk of breast cancer. The incidence of osteoporosis in Japanese women is significantly lower than in Western women and dietary factors such as soy protein intake may be important in sustaining this protection.

    Notes: The links between diet, bacteria and colonic cancer are examined in this article. Studies suggest that high intakes of fat and protein are associated with elevated risk of colonic cancer whereas cereals, fruits and vegetables seem to be protective. A further aspect considered in relation to this type of cancer is metabolism by gut bacteria. Probiotics, prebiotics and synbiotics are presented as ways of stimulating the activities, certain gut flora and the use of "functional foods" is also discussed.

    Notes: A new National Diet and Nutrition Survey was published in October 1998, by the Ministry of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food and the Department of Health, which reported on the dietary intake and nutritional status of people over 65 years of age in the UK. This survey provided data on 1,275 free-living people and 412 people in residential care. Along with the information on diet and nutritional status are data on anthropometric and biochemical parameters. A second related survey looked at dental health in this age group. The key findings of these surveys and the public health implications for older people are discussed.

    Notes: Antibiotics are used in animals to cure disease and prevent suffering. Bacterial populations in animals which are exposed to these antibiotics may be selected for resistance. There is a concern that spread of these bacteria in the food chain to humans may result in the establishment of antibiotic resistant bacteria in people which will prove difficult or impossible to treat with conventional drugs. It is clear that antibiotics must be used carefully to reduce the development of resistance and that steps should be taken to reduce the transfer of bacteria from animals to man.

    Notes: Few studies have concentrated on the food choices of young people and the potential influences, yet the food choices established in these early years can determine the diet and quality of health in later life. This study investigates the diet and food choices of 9-17-year olds in Northern Ireland and considers the potential effects of age, gender and socio-economic grouping. A range of research methods was implemented including observations, questionnaires and diet based case studies. The observations, in five schools, indicated the types of foods being chosen whilst the questionnaires further investigated this initial information along with other factors, to obtain more detailed data. A total of 764 questionnaires were administered to young people and 516 to parents to facilitate comparison. In-depth diet based case studies also took place evaluating the diets of 14 young people. The research indicated that this group have a diet which continues to cause concern.

    Notes: Outlines the numerous messages sent to consumers regarding healthy eating practices and indicates the problems involved in determining whether or not the British consumer has adopted a nutritious and healthy diet. Research was undertaken which measured individuals' involvement in healthy eating issues and related this to several demographic characteristics. The research indicates some variation in involvement in healthy eating according to demographic variables but the results were not statistically significant. Group discussions were also conducted which confirmed that the healthy eating messages were widely received and understood; however, there was some confusion over their content, scepticism regarding the veracity and motivation of some sources and a growing resentment of boring and puritanical themes. In the future care must be taken to produce clear, simple and positive healthy eating messages to the public if trends towards a more nutritious diet are to continue.

    Notes: Much of the debate surrounding genetic modification has centred on food product ingredients, in particular soya derivatives, and the supposed inability to segregate GM from non-GM soybeans. Protein Technologies International has, however, implemented a system, Identity Preservation, which ensures the delivery of non-GM soy protein to its customers. The system covers seeds, on-farm storage, planting, growing and harvesting, transportation, processing and distribution, with independent third-party verification. It is, believes the company, a way of ensuring that consumers can obtain the health benefits of soy protein consumption even if they are actively avoiding GM ingredients.

    Notes: The government has recently published a National Food Guide poster,The Balance of Good Health and a published programme TheHealth of the Nation. These have aroused controversy, mainly becauseof the way in which they were published and the detail given. Britishnewspaper reports were hostile and the public displayed scepticism. Thepublic would welcome advice on eating habits but are against coercionwhich restricts freedom of choice. Advice needs to be given on how toeat well and in a healthy manner by enjoying food, not by prescription.

    Notes: It is estimated that by the turn of the millennium the world humanpopulation could exceed ten billion. Scientists inevitably are searchingfor effective alternative methods of food preservation. Accordingly,ionization radiation, discovered nearly a hundred years ago when it wasfirst shown to kill micro-organisms in foods, is being increasinglyencouraged as an alternative method of food preservation. The WorldHealth Organization (WHO) has declared irradiation to be "apowerful tool against preventable food losses and food borneillnesses". Low dose irradiation, up to 10KGy dose, has been shownto delay ripening, enhance shelf-life, kill bacteria such as salmonella,listeria, etc., destroy insect infestation, eliminate unwantedsprouting, and in many cases improve flavour and texture of foods. Theconsumer may not be aware, but a staggering tonnage of food is alreadybeing irradiated around the world. Irradiation does not impart anyradioactivity to the food and the irradiated food has been shown to besafe for human consumption. The technique offers yet another possibilityof extending choice in new exotics for the consumer.

    Notes: Several studies have shown that microwave cooking, if properlyused, does not change the nutrient content of foods to a larger extentthan conventional heating. In fact, suggests that there is a tendencytowards greater retention of many micronutrients with microwaving,probably due to the shorter preparation time. Does not describenon-thermal effects. The main problem with microwaving is the unevenheating of the food, which has raised concern regarding microbiologicalsafety. Microwaving infant formula and breast milk has becomeincreasingly popular. The content of nutrients and antibacterial factorsin milk are maintained unchanged provided the final temperature does notexceed 60°C.

    Notes: The question is: should women be encouraged to reduce dietary fats– especially saturated fats - as a measure to preventcardiovascular disease (i.e. heart disease plus stroke)? Presentsevidence to support the conclusion that enhanced levels of bloodcholesterol do not indicate enhanced risk of cardiovascular disease inwomen. Similar evidence supports the conclusion that enhanced bloodcholesterol levels do not indicate enhanced risk of all-cause death,i.e. they do not indicate reduced life expectancy. Hence there is norational basis for adopting a diet designed to reduce cholesterol, e.g.one based on reduced consumption of saturated fat. These conclusionsillustrate the undesirability of pursuing measures to reduce a singledisease - in this case coronary heart disease - in isolationfrom consideration of risk relations for other ailments and for overallhealth.

    Notes: Describes how 48 subjects participated in experiments toinvestigate the effect of visual cues in identifying odours. Thesubjects were first instructed to describe the odour of six fruitsolutions, four of which were inappropriately coloured. Second, theywere presented with a series of fruit solutions which varied in odourand colour intensity and were asked to rank them in order of odourstrength. For the control sets, the odour and colour strengths werecompatible; in the experimental sets the odour strength and colourintensity were conflicting. The results of the first experiment indicatethat the identification of fruit odours proves significantly moredifficult when the colour of the solution is inappropriate (p〈 0.05) and in the second experiment more subjects rank the solutionsin the correct order when the colour intensity and odour strengths arecompatible than when they are conflicting. Visual cues are found toinfluence odour judgements significantly and, when presented withconflicting stimuli, the visual cues appear to override the olfactorysense and distract the subjects from making the correct assessment.

    Notes: Considers the social, cultural and nutritional aspects of foodconsumption among low income families. For over a hundred years concernhas been expressed about the diet of poor families. Qualitative researchwith 48 low income families is reported which investigated their foodpurchasing and consumption behaviour in order to understand theirmanaging and coping strategies better. Rather than radically alter theirdiets, families adopt a cheaper imitation of conventional eatingpatterns. To do otherwise would entail an unacceptable risk of wastethat could not be afforded. Further research is reported which indicatesthat families on income support cannot afford to purchase a healthy andsocially acceptable diet.

    Notes: The British livestock industry is the subject of a number ofcontroversial issues. These include matters of public concern such asanimal welfare, growth promoters, biotechnological procedures, thenutritional value of meat and BSE. There are many misconceptions onthese matters and concerns are often needless. Legislation, unknown tomany consumers, is in place on these matters and has been adhered to inthe UK and other EU members states for many years. The divide betweenthe urban dweller and agriculture is widening. There is therefore a needfor closer communication between interested parties.

    Notes: Assesses the effect of fat substitutes on satiety and subsequent food intake in men; 50 per cent of fat in pork sausages was replaced by natural fat substitutes - Avicel, Tapiocaline and Simplesse. Results showed that high-energy fat breakfasts comprising full-fat sausages led to delayed satiety compared with high-energy CHO breakfasts. There were no differences between hunger and satiety ratings nor energy and fat intakes following different fatsubstituted breakfasts on the test day and the following day. The deficit in energy between high-energy and reduced-energy breakfasts was maintained throughout the test day. Consumption of one reduced-fat meal resulted in a significant reduction of energy intake, which was not compensated for on the test day or on the following day.

    Notes: It is well known that the foundations for food choice are laid down in childhood. Poor dietary habits learned in childhood may persist into adult life. The dietary awareness of children is subject to a range of complex interacting forces, for example, peer group pressure, social factors and television advertising. Many investigators have developed innovative methodologies to record these parameters. Reviews, therefore, the methodological issues of studies which have attempted to elicit pre-adolescent attitudes, knowledge and beliefs in food. Finally, makes recommendations about methodological issues that should be considered when studying pre-adolescent children's food choice.

    Notes: Escherichia coli 0157 is responsible for an emerging enteric disease which became a growing public health concern in 1996 with major outbreaks in Japan and Scotland. Unfortunately, the more common haemorrhagic colitis can at times develop into the haemolytic uraemic syndrome with associated renal disease which can lead to fatalities. It is now apparent that few bacterial cells are needed to spread infection and that cross-contamination is therefore a significant problem. Although there are national programmes to investigate E. coli 0157 infection and gain new information on epidemiology, handwashing is seen as a very simple but effective approach to prevent transmission from contaminated material to food. We need to be made aware of the clinical importance of E. coli infection and how best we can bring it under control.

    Notes: Average intakes of vitamin B6 are equal to, or greater than, reference nutrient intakes and clinical deficiency disease due to inadequate dietary intake is unknown. Although there is little scientific evidence of efficacy, the vitamin is widely recommended for treatment of premenstrual syndrome at levels of 50-100mg/day (compared with reference nutrient intakes of under 2mg/day). At higher levels of intake (over 1,000mg/day), there is clear evidence of nerve damage, and there have been reports of symptoms of nerve damage in people taking between 50-100mg/day.

    Notes: CEFAS, the Centre for Environment, Fisheries and Aquaculture Science, is responsible for providing the scientific advice required to manage the exploitation of fisheries resources of interest to the UK. Information is collected from fishermen's logbooks and fish markets on the catches and fishing activity of the English and Welsh fleets, and length and age compositions of the more important commercial species are sampled from landings and, where possible, from fish that are discarded at sea. Supporting biological data are collected on surveys conducted by research vessels or chartered commercial boats. For some species' populations, fishery-independent estimates of abundance are also made from egg surveys. These data are combined with those from other countries exploiting common fisheries and used in analytical assessments carried out by international working groups at the International Council for the Exploration of the Sea. The results provide the basis for negotiations of each year's total allowable catches at the European Council of Ministers.

    Notes: Describes some of the important nutritional issues involved in the development of farming techniques for marine fish. The key phase of larval rearing remains dependent on the use of live foods, but because of problems with the nutritional quality as well as availability of the limited number of suitable organisms their replacement with suitable formulated feeds is a high current priority. Feeding the juvenile stages is less challenging, but there is a need to maximize the utilization of these feeds in order to improve cost effectiveness. An important issue during the on-growing stages, when food demand is high and a major component of production costs, is the need to identify and develop alternative protein sources to fish meal.
