Milk And Dairy Products

Milk and dairy products constitute an important source of energy and nutrients for humans. Food preferences may significantly influence the actual consumption (and thus nutrition) of people at the population level. The objective of the present large-scale survey was to specify current preferences for milk and dairy products with regard to age and sex. The study was conducted across the Moravia region, Czech Republic, on a sample of 451 individuals divided into 4 age groups: children, adolescents, young adults, and elderly people. A graphic scale questionnaire was administered, with respondents rating their degree of preference for each food item by drawing a mark on a 35 mm line. Out of the 115 items in the questionnaire, 11 items represented dairy products. Data was analysed by means of a general linear model using IBM SPSS Statistics software. Preference for milk was lower in the elderly group than the other groups (P < 0.01). In children, the most preferred dairy product was cream, which was in contrast with the elderly group. Significant sex differences were only found with low-fat yoghurt (P < 0.01). The overall preference for dairy products (21.6) was lower than the average preference for all foods on the list (22.5). The cross-sectional study revealed intergenerational differences in preferences for specific dairy products, which were most marked in case of cream, processed cheese, blue cheese, and buttermilk. The knowledge of these differences might help promote more focused action at the community level directed at increasing the overall consumption of dairy products in the population.

Objective, the aim is an analysis of sociodemographic factors that had an essential relation with undertaking leisure-time physical activity—LTPA (with particular emphasis on World Health Organization (WHO) health recommendations) by adult Poles from a time-trend perspective. Methods, the paper is based on data retrieved from five large-scale surveys carried out on the representative samples of Poles aged 15–69 in 2014–2018 (n = 7347). In each wave, the Polish long version of the International Physical Activity Questionnaire was used. Results, the participation of Poles in LTPA constantly increases (p < 0.001) and the percentage of people meeting the dose of PA required for health recommendations is growing (on average, met by 43.9% of Polish men and 43.5% of women), which indicates a trend of behaviour of citizens of this country. The probability of realisation of WHO norms was determined by sex, age, place of residence and occupational status. Conclusion: it seems reasonable to develop Polish recommendations and guidelines for specific groups, including females and males, those who live in the villages and in the towns, different age groups: children/adolescents, adults (aged 50 to 59—most vulnerable to physical inactivity), the elderly, and various professional groups (especially farmers and physical workers).

Topicality. In Ukrainian society there is concern about the quality of dairy products produced by domestic producers. Dairy production is the most necessary in the diet of a human, especially at the child�s age. We cannot image the child diet without milk and dairy products. As the infant�s body is much more fragile and vulnerable to the quality and safety of the food, which he consumes, so the requirements to the quality and safety of dairy products need to be tightened, and the requirements must be increased. And it is precisely such the requirements that should apply to the development of economic entities that have the direct relation to the production, , maintenance and processes of milk processing. Aim and tasks. The purpose of the article is to analyze and estimate the condition of the commodity market in the link of the dairy product chain, the sanitary state of milk being milked, volumes of milk supply to the processing enterprises, production and distribution of the dairy products by sales channel, problems and possibilities of providing rational needs and the level of consumption of milk and dairy products by the population. Research results. Carried out complex analysis of the state of dairy industry and the raw material market in the link of the dairy logistics chain, the sanitary state of fresh milk, the volumes of milk supply to the extra grade processing enterprises, production and distribution of dairy products by sales channels. Conclusion. The condition of dairy market and enterprises shows, that adopting legislative and regulatory measures and norms synchronized with European ones will not produce the expected results, unless supported them by real investment projects, aimed at developing the market sectors, and, first of all, the raw milk sector, which produces milk. The strategy for the development of the milk market should be based on the development of large-scale milk commodity farms, equipped with all the necessary infrastructure: feed-storage shops, veterinary services, milking machines and cooling, and most importantly quality laboratories.

Milk And Dairy Products

Several studies have assessed the effects of milk and dairy product intake on sleep quality and duration. Such investigations have varied in terms of their geographic locations, amounts of milk and dairy products, study participants (age, sex, race), and study designs. The present study aimed to summarize this literature and provide a unified view on whether the intake of milk and dairy products affects sleep quality. This systematic review was conducted according to the preferred reporting items for systematic reviews and meta-analyses (PRISMA) guidelines. The following keywords were chosen as electronic database search items from MeSH (medical subject headings) terms and descriptors in health sciences (DeHS) lists: milk, yogurt, dairy product, cheese, sleep, human, observational study, and interventional study. As a result, a total of 14 studies published between 1972 and 2019 were included in this review, including eight randomized controlled trials, two experimental studies with cross-over designs, one longitudinal study, and three cross-sectional studies. Four studies targeted older adults, three included toddlers, two targeted children, and six enrolled adults inclusive of university students. Overall, these studies indicated that a well-balanced diet that includes milk and dairy products is effective in improving sleep quality, despite mixed results across studies attributable to differences in study populations and methods.

Context: The aging of the world’s population increasingly calls on older people to care for their cancer relatives. This scenario confronts clinicians involved with end-of-life care with an imposing challenge: elderly family caregivers could have a different perception of the burdens associated with assistance compared to their younger counterparts. Palliativists need to know what limits and resources of these new age categories of caregivers could be for a global management of dying patients with cancer and their family. Objectives: To evaluate the caregiver burden in family caregivers supporting dying patients with cancer in order to compare the differences between 2 different caregivers age groups (younger vs elderly population). Methods: This is a cross-sectional study. A total of 174 family caregivers of hospice patients were interviewed through the Caregiver Burden Inventory (CBI). The sample group was divided into 2 subgroups aged <65 (younger group) and ≥65 years old (elderly group). Results: Compared with younger caregivers, the elderly group reported significantly higher scores in the CBI–developmental subscale ( P = .009) confirmed by the generalized linear model (multivariate) evaluation that included possible predictors in the model. No further differences were found between the 2 age groups in the other CBI scores (time-dependent, physical, social, emotional, and overall score). Conclusion: Elderly caregivers are at high risk for experiencing developmental burden. This finding could prompt mental health professionals to pay greater attention to the value that assistance to the family member can have on their personal story and on that of the family or couple.

AbstractObjectiveDairy products are sources of protein and micronutrients important in a healthy diet. The purpose of the present analysis was to estimate consumption of dairy products by Brazilians and identify contributions of dairy products to nutrient intakes.DesignDairy consumption data were obtained from 24 h dietary records. Dairy products were defined as milk (including flavoured), cheese and yoghurt. Estimates of dairy product intakes were generated for all individuals, individuals in urban and rural households and for age groups 10–18 years, 19–59 years and ≥60 years. Contributions to nutrient intakes were estimated for the total sample and sub-populations.SettingNationwide cross-sectional survey, 2008–2009.SubjectsNationally representative sample of individuals aged ≥10 years in the Individual Food Intake survey, a component of the Brazilian Household Budget Survey (n 34 003).ResultsAmong individuals aged ≥10 years, per capita intake of dairy products was 142 (se 2·1) g/d. Dairy product intake was higher among individuals in urban compared with rural areas and among groups 10–18 years and ≥60 years compared with adults aged 19–59 years. Dairy products accounted for 6·1 % of daily energy intake, 7·3 % of protein, 16·9 % of saturated fat, 11·1 % and 4·3 % of total and added sugars, respectively, and 10·2–37·9 % of daily Ca, vitamin D, P, vitamin A and K.ConclusionsDairy products were substantial contributors to daily intakes of selected nutrients of concern in Brazil, although mean daily dairy product consumption was less than a typical portion. Education efforts in Brazil to raise awareness about the nutritional role of dairy foods may serve to improve overall diet quality.

Few studies have reported the relationship between knee pain and hypercholesterolemia in the elderly population with osteoarthritis (OA), independent of other variables. The aim of this study was to reveal the association between knee pain and metabolic diseases including hypercholesterolemia using a large-scale cohort. A cross-sectional study was conducted using data from the Korea National Health and the Nutrition Examination Survey (KNHANES-V, VI-1; 2010–2013). Among the subjects aged ≥60 years, 7438 subjects (weighted number estimate = 35,524,307) who replied knee pain item and performed the simple radiographs of knee were enrolled. Using multivariable ordinal logistic regression analysis, variables affecting knee pain were identified, and the odds ratio (OR) was calculated. Of the 35,524,307 subjects, 10,630,836 (29.9%) subjects experienced knee pain. Overall, 20,290,421 subjects (56.3%) had radiographic OA, and 8,119,372 (40.0%) of them complained of knee pain. Multivariable ordinal logistic regression analysis showed that among the metabolic diseases, only hypercholesterolemia was positively correlated with knee pain in the OA group (OR 1.24; 95% Confidence Interval 1.02–1.52, p = 0.033). There were no metabolic diseases correlated with knee pain in the non-OA group. This large-scale study revealed that in the elderly, hypercholesterolemia was positively associated with knee pain independent of body mass index and other metabolic diseases in the OA group, but not in the non-OA group. These results will help in understanding the nature of arthritic pain, and may support the need for exploring the longitudinal associations.

We aimed to identify and compare medication profiles in populations with polypharmacy between 2005 and 2015. We conducted a cross-sectional study using information from the Computerized Database for Pharmacoepidemiologic Studies in Primary Care (BIFAP, Spain). We estimated the prevalence of therapeutic subgroups in all individuals 15 years of age and older with polypharmacy (≥5 drugs during ≥6 months) using the Anatomical Therapeutic Chemical classification system level 4, by sex and age group, for both calendar years. The most prescribed drugs were proton-pump inhibitors (PPIs), statins, antiplatelet agents, benzodiazepine derivatives, and angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors. The greatest increases between 2005 and 2015 were observed in PPIs, statins, other antidepressants, and β-blockers, while the prevalence of antiepileptics was almost tripled. We observed increases in psychotropic drugs in women and cardiovascular medications in men. By patient´s age groups, there were notable increases in antipsychotics, antidepressants, and antiepileptics (15–44 years); antidepressants, PPIs, and selective β-blockers (45–64 years); selective β-blockers, biguanides, PPIs, and statins (65–79 years); and in statins, selective β-blockers, and PPIs (80 years and older). Our results revealed important increases in the use of specific therapeutic subgroups, like PPIs, statins, and psychotropic drugs, highlighting opportunities to design and implement strategies to analyze such prescriptions’ appropriateness.

Milk And Dairy Products

Современный рынок молочной продукции претерпевает существенные изменения, в основе которых лежит тенденция на удешевление продукции. Российские молочные продукты, произведенные из классического сырья по традиционным технологиям, зачастую подвергаются фальсификации продуктами с пониженными массовыми долями жира и белка, заменой молочных компонентов и живых заквасочных культур вследствие отсутствия системы идентификационных характеристик. Реформой технического регулирования, проведенной в Российской Федерации в 2000 году, правила идентификации как способ отнесения продукта к определенной группе продукции посредством сопоставления его характеристик с установленными были законодательно закреплены на федеральном уровне. В настоящее время идентификация служит неотъемлемой частью оценки (подтверждения) соответствия продукции и является главным средством борьбы с фальсификацией. Критериями идентификации выступают регламентированные показатели продукта. Технический регламент Таможенного союза 033/2013 «О безопасности молока и молочной продукции» включает понятие «национальный молочный продукт», однако критерии идентификации этой группы продукции отсутствуют. Целью исследования был поиск уникальных характеристик российских молочных продуктов для их идентификации среди аналогичной продукции. В качестве метода был применен ретроспективный анализ литературы с глубиной поиска до 1930-х гг. Установлено, что в качестве критериев идентификации молочных продуктов использовали не только сырьевой и технологический признаки, но и упаковку. Выявленные критерии будут положены в основу формирования системы идентификации российских молочных продуктов. The modern dairy market is undergoing significant changes, which are based on the trend towards cheaper products. Russian dairy products made from classical raw materials using traditional technologies are often falsified by products with reduced mass fractions of fat and protein, replacing dairy components and live starter cultures due to the lack of an identification system. The reform of technical regulation carried out in the Russian Federation in 2000, the identification rules as a way of classifying a product as a specific product group by comparing the characteristics with the established ones were legally fixed at the federal level. Currently, identification is an integral part of the assessment (confirmation) of product conformity and is the main means of combating falsification. Identification criteria are regulated product indicators. The technical regulation of the Customs Union 033/2013 «On the safety of milk and dairy products” includes such a concept as «national dairy product», however, there are no criteria for identifying this group of products. The aim of the research was to search for unique characteristics of Russian dairy products and classical technologies that distinguish them from similar products. As a method, a retrospective analysis of the literature with a search depth of up to the 1930s was used. It was established that not only raw and technological characteristics, but also packaging were used as criteria for identifying dairy products. The identified criteria will be the basis for the formation of an identification system for Russian dairy products.

The population of the population in the world is increasing day by day. One of the age groups that have a significant increase in the elderly group. Projections and data found about the elderly are a concern that is of interest to the whole world because along with the increase in population it is accompanied by physical and psychological problems that accompany it. This study aims to identify factors that affect depression in retired elderly people. The design used in this study uses a research design: "CROSS-SECTIONAL". In this study, the population is elderly retirees who live in the area of Jekan Raya Subdistrict, Palangka Raya City. The sampling technique in this study uses consecutive sampling technique, which is the best type of non-probability sampling, that is, all objects that come sequentially and meet the selection criteria are included in the study until the number of subjects needed is fulfilled, namely as many as 100 people. The results showed that there was no significant relationship between sex (p: 0.671), employment status (p: 0.994), marital status (p: 0.726), education (p: 0.988), and the level of depression in retired civil servants in Jekan Subdistrict Raya Kota Palangka Raya. This research is expected to contribute positively to the management of elderly people with depression so that they are able to adapt to changes that occur due to the aging process.
