The present study was conducted on 683 families residing in three district of Uttarakhand viz., Almora, Udham Singh Nagar and Nainital to assess their nutritional profile. A village proforma and household proforma was used to collect the general information about the village and families. Dietary adequacy was assessed by 24 hour recall method and mean individual intake of nutrients was compared with the recommended dietary allowances. Results showed that majority of population was literate and only 18.5 per cent females were found to be illiterate. Most of the respondents were housewives and their main occupation was agriculture and animal husbandry. Data revealed that diet of women was inadequate in all the food groups except fat and calcium although intake of protein and iron was found to be closer to the RDA. Whereas average nutrient intake of children (11-15 years) was gravely deficient in micronutrients as well as intake of calorie and protein was also skimpy as compared to RDA.Keywords

The present investigation was confined to Mau block of district Chitrakoot (U.P.). Rationale of the study was to facilitate information on exclusive breast feeding to rural women by facilitators through preparing training module. The objective of the study was to develop training module on breast feeding for facilitators of Anganwadi centers. Qualitative information was obtained by semi structured interview method to get views from mothers, expecting women, Accredited Social Health Activists (ASHA), Anganwadi workers (AWWs) and Village Development Coordinator (VDCOs) and observed that it was common to give cow milk and water to infants less than six months old. Exclusive breast feeding is rarely practiced in the community; also breast milk secretion is not sufficient enough to initiate breast feeding within one hour of birth. Module on exclusive breast feeding was developed containing four sections viz., anchor, input, apply and integration. Anchor sections (15 min.) consisted of exploring what the learners already know about the topic and connect them to the core concept to be introduced. Input section (40 min.) comprised of adding new knowledge through flip chart. Apply activity (30 min.) involved undertaking a task that enables learners to apply the new knowledge immediately provided through flip charts. Integrate activity (20 min.) included using new knowledge in their real lives. Field testing of module was done. The module was found useful by the participants.Keywords

This cross-sectional nature of research investigation consists of assessing nutritional status and body composition of 629 young women in the age range of 18-28 years. Mean BMI and waist hip ratio was revealed 20.3±3.4 and 0.83±0.05, respectively. Fat per cent showed an increasing trend in accordance with income slab. A decreasing trend was observed for fat free mass (%) and total body water (%) in relation to income range. Mean observations for fat (%) have been found to be 21.27±6.55, 22.74±6.77 and 23.91±6.86 at three corresponding income ranges. FFM (%) and fat (%) had significant difference (p<0.01) at 1 per cent level for the groups viz., low income group-middle income group and middle income group-high income group. Anthropometric characteristics such as weight, BMI, waist circumference, hip circumference, triceps, biceps, sub-scapular and sum of skin fold thickness had rising trend with advancing income ranges while height, MUAC, WHR and supra-iliac revealed no such trend. Waist circumference showed to have significant difference (p<0.05) at 5 per cent level for the groups viz., low income group-middle income group and low income group-high income group. Waist hip ratio revealed significant difference (p<0.05) at 5 per cent level for the group low income group-middle income group.Keywords

Egg cakes were prepared by using different levels of amaranth flour into refined wheat flour with the constant level of whey protein concentrate by method of U.S. Wheat Associates in 1983. Physical characteristics of amaranth grains and functional properties of flour were studied. It was found that seed weight, volume are less than other cereal as Amaranth seeds are tiny and lighter in weight. The water absorption and fat absorption capacity of variety PRA-3 was recorded as 1.6 per g of flour and 1.9 ml/g flour. Volume and specific volume of control cake was higher than the amaranth flour incorporated cakes. There was significant difference between volume index, symmetry index and uniformity index of control and 40 per cent amaranth flour cake. The overall acceptability scores of 40 per cent Amaranth flour cake was maximum and more than control for cakes (8.3).Keywords

The cross sectional community based study was conducted to assess the prevalence of Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS) and its associated factors among college going girls (20-30 years) residing in hostels of U.S. Nagar district of Northern India. The data on 250 subjects was obtained using self-designed pre-tested questionnaires during March to June 2018. Information was collected on menstrual and clinical history, dietary history, physical activity parameters and general information of subjects. The data was presented in percentages; chi square analysis, correlation analysis and rate ratio was also used to analyze the association between dependent and independent variables. The results showed that the prevalence of PCOS was 6% as evaluated by clinical diagnostic tool used in the questionnaire. A total of 18.4% subjects reported variable or long menstrual cycles, 6% subjects reported less than 9 menses annually and 7.2% subjects reported irregular menses with weight gain. A significant association was found between PCOS and high body mass index values and sedentary physical activity level. It was found that overweight and obese subjects have seven times higher risk of developing PCOS as compared to underweight and normal individuals. Also subjects with sedentary physical activity level have eight times higher risk of developing PCOS as compared to their counterparts with moderate physical activity. No strong association was found between PCOS and fast food consumption. The study concluded that body mass index and physical activity level of subjects were associated with poly cystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) using rate ratio as a tool. The study results indicate the need to conduct large study on PCOS in India.Keywords

Uttar Pradesh is the largest state of India in population and fourth largest state in terms of area. On the basis of its large size, diverse geography, climate and topography, the state has been divided into 4 regions, namely Western, Central, Eastern and Bundelkhand. Present study was conducted with an objective to assess physical growth and nutritional status of school going children age 6-14 years, residing in western and eastern Uttar Pradesh (UP), India. Survey was conducted at Bulandshahr district in western region and Chandauli district in eastern UP. The multistage stratified random sampling was used for identification of schools. Data was collected from 38 schools (Western Uttar Pradesh 20 schools and Eastern Uttar Pradesh 18 schools). Selected children in Western Uttar Pradesh (WUP) were 413 (Male 186 and Female 227) and in Eastern Uttar Pradesh (EUP) total children were 340 (Male 167 and Female 173). The clinical signs and symptoms examination was carried out for prevalence of macro and micro nutrients deficiencies. Anthropometric measurements i.e. body weight, height and mid upper arm circumference were measured. Body Mass Index (BMI) was calculated as weight/ height2 to assess chronic energy deficiency. Physical growth of children was assessed by height for age (stunting) and BMI for age (under and over weight) by using z score suggested by WHO. Physical growth of the children was compared with WHO growth standards. Present study revealed that the overall mean height of children from both the regions were lower than the WHO standards however, height and weight measurements exhibit uniform increase with age in both the sexes. Prevalence of sever stunting was higher among boys and girls of WUP in comparison with EUP. The clinical signs and symptoms of protein deficiency were noticed tripe among girls than boys in both WUP and EUP. This indicates that overall girls were not receiving adequate protein in the diet. However symptoms of vitamin A and B complex deficiency were higher in boys of both the regions.Keywords
