Dietary intake of Alaska Native people in two regions and implications for health: the Alaska Native dietary and subsistence food assessment project / Jennifer S. Johnson, and 3 others.
Title: | Dietary intake of Alaska Native people in two regions and implications for health: the Alaska Native dietary and subsistence food assessment project / Jennifer S. Johnson, and 3 others. |
Author(s): | Johnson, Jennifer S. |
Date: | 2009. |
In: | International Journal of Circumpolar Health. (2009.), Vol. 68(2) (2009) |
Abstract: | Presents calculation of energy and nutrient intake in two regions of Alaska and describes implications for chronic disease among Alaska Natives. Finds that traditional foods continue to contribute significant amount of nutrients to diet in rural Alaska. Suggests excess simple sugars may be contributing to rise in obesity and diabetes; also low intakes of calcium, dietary fibre, fruit and vegetables may contribute to increased incidence of cancers of digestive system. Recommends emphasis on positive aspects of traditional foods, and increased consumption of fruit, vegetables and calcium-rich foods. |
