Celiac sprue.

Celiac Sprue is a malabsorption disease (not to be confused with a food allergy or hypersensitivity to food products) that can occur at any age. This disease is characterized by changes in the mucosal lining of the small intestine. The mucosal lining is damaged by protein fragments of gliadin, which is found in gluten (wheat, rye, barley, oats), and the small intestine is unable to carry out its main functions of digestion and absorption. The treatment for this disease is to discontinue gluten from the diet permanently. Once gluten is removed from the diet, the small intestine begins to heal itself. As the healing process continues, digestion and absorption resume. Celiac Sprue does not go away. A gluten-free diet must be maintained for the rest of one's life.

[The impact of a food service in the school milieu on the quality of nutrition in children].

The food service at the Le Tremplin school (QC), which is managed by a non-profit organization including parents and members of the community, was evaluated in terms of its impact on the nutritional quality of the meals consumed by the students from the point of view of the prevention of cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) in children. This was done by comparing it with a traditional food service operated by a concessionnaire. On the nutritional level, the menus offered in the two schools were comparable: in both cases, they fell far short of meeting nutritional recommendations related to the prevention of CVDs. In other respects, the nutritional value of the meals consumed by the children differed according to the school. It was closer to meeting recommendations in the case of the Le Tremplin school. The results obtained show that the organization of the food service at the Le Tremplin school appears to favour a more adequate consumption of lipids and carbohydrates, as well as a more appropriate distribution of the different fatty acids in the food.

Practical approaches to eating disorders in adolescence. Primer for family physicians.

Primary care physicians have an important role in assessing and managing adolescents who present with low weight. Initial diagnosis should be based on current understanding of adolescents' eating behaviours and be followed by obtaining supportive evidence. A practical developmental approach to management should be emphasized. Criteria for hospitalization, a three-step approach to management, and indications for expanding from a primary care to a team approach are discussed.

Duration of the inhibitory effect of calcium on non-haem iron absorption in man.

We investigated the duration of the inhibitory effect of calcium from milk and cheese (340 mg) in a breakfast meal on non-haem iron absorption from a hamburger meal eaten 2 or 4 h after the breakfast. The effect of calcium on iron absorption was studied in 21 human subjects by using paired observations and a dual-radioisotope method (55Fe and 59Fe). No duration effect of calcium on iron absorption was observed in this study. The present findings offer an opportunity for theoretical improvement of iron nutrition by a redistribution of the daily intake of calcium to the meals with a minor iron content, i.e. breakfast and the evening meal.

["Nutrition": a program to facilitate the calculations of the composition of menus and diets].

The methodology used to build a software program to compute the nutrient composition of menus and diets is discussed. Topics as the variability of food composition, the scarcity of local food composition data, the bias that may be incurred in nutrient data of food consumption studies are extensively discussed and also the possible solution through the software program. All of these topics must be taken into account in epidemiological studies as well as in computing diet composition.
