Book excerpt: The world food system has profoundly transformed and globalised in recent decades with transnational food companies expanding control of food production, distribution, and retailing. As well a nutrition transition has been observed worldwide as diets become higher in fats, sugars, salts and highly processed foods. This nutrition transition is connected with a global increase in obesity and diet-related disease with 2 billion people worldwide now overweight or obese. There is a pressing need to understand how this increasingly complex global food system operates to affect nutrition and to identify optimal points for interventions to promote better health outcomes. This study addresses these problems in Thailand, which has experienced rapid economic growth, globalisation and lifestyle change in recent decades. A comprehensive literature review of Thai food system transitions found Thailand has emerged as a major food exporter with an increasingly important agri-business and food processing sector. However the country's numerous small-holder farmers are not enjoying the benefits, experiencing relative poverty and food insecurity. Modern food retail (ie hypermarkets, supermarkets and convenience stores) has also expanded rapidly since the late 1990s capturing nearly half of food sales, but only around 10-20% of fresh food sales. Thailand has been one of the most successful developing countries in rapidly reducing malnutrition through comprehensive Primary Health Care and nutrition programs at the village level. Now obesity affects more than 30% of Thai adults and nutrition policies are struggling with this new challenge which is unfamiliar, and nutritionally opposite to what went before. To understand how changes in food retailing and local food environments interact with diet and nutrition, in 2012 a questionnaire based study was carried out utilising a 4-region sub-sample (n=1516) drawn from a large Thai Cohort Study underway since 2005. Analysis revealed almost all participants had access to a range of food retail formats. Logistic regression models taking into account potential confounding factors found those who shopped regularly at supermarkets and convenience stores were more likely to be regular consumers of a range of "problem foods" known to be associated with the nutrition transition: soft drinks, instant foods, snack foods, processed meats, and western bakery items. Qualitative interviews with questionnaire respondents investigated motivations in food retail choices. Most respondents were satisfied with shopping at a range of formats but had strong preferences for fresh markets as a source of fresher, cheaper, higher quality and culturally important foods. The results of this study indicate modern food retail formats are associated with negative aspects of the nutrition transition in Thailand. Expansion of supermarkets into the fresh food sector may face cultural and economic limits, at least in the short to middle term. This has positive implications with Thai consumers retaining access to affordable, fresh, health protective foods. The Thai government should consider more actively protecting and assisting fresh markets promoting them as healthy food sources and as repositories of Thai food culture with social, economic and health benefits for future Thais.

Book Synopsis Nutrition Labelling of Food to Promote Consumer Health in Transitional Thailand by : Wimalin Rimpeekool

This book was released on 2016 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the last century, population transitions linked to development have affected disease and longevity, especially in middle-income countries. In Southeast Asia, the food supply is changing and processed food diets are increasing intakes of energy, fat, sugar, and sodium. This has resulted in diet-related non-communicable diseases (NCDs) that are now major public health problems. Interest in this nutrition transition of changing environment, diet, and lifestyle generated the nutrition labelling research conducted for this thesis. Thai nutrition labelling aims to promote healthier eating among consumers. The labels have not been revised although many complain of difficulty in interpreting the information and we know little about Thai consumer response. This thesis aimed to generate evidence for policies to enhance the utility of future labels in Thailand. Five first author papers resulted (four published and one under review). The first study looks back at food and nutrition labelling in Thailand across the last century and found 81 relevant documents dated between 1908 and 2015. Thai food labelling began to protect consumers from adulterated foods in 1927. Labelling regulations interacted with economic development and international trade in complex ways. The Thai food industry emerged after World War 2 and Thailand joined the international Codex Alimentarius. Consumers became concerned about food and the government created consumer-friendly labels. Over the last two decades, nutrition labelling expanded to promote population health by inducing appropriate changes in eating behaviours and lifestyle. However, domestic protection is now in tension with the rules of the global food trade. The second and third studies were qualitative and used semi-structured in-depth interviews with open-ended questions of a sample of Thai adults. The interview data were obtained by the candidates from 14 university-educated Bangkok members of the Thai Cohort Study (see below) and 20 less educated walk-in supermarket Ranong customers southwest from Bangkok. The second study used a combined Knowledge-Attitude-Behaviour and Health Belief Model to explore participant experiences and motivations in relation to nutrition labels. The third study explored barriers in interpreting information on labels. Participants had difficulties due to low awareness, literacy and numeracy and they thought label formats could improve. The fourth and fifth studies were epidemiological and large in scale. They generated new data on labelling from the nationwide antecedent Thai Cohort Study (TCS) at its 8-year mark in 2013. Cohort members were 42,750 distance learning Sukhothai Thammathirat Open University (STOU) adults under observation since 2005 for multi-faceted research on development-related health-risk transitions. The new TCS data on nutrition label experience and intake of processed foods revealed associations of labels and food choices with socio-demographic factors and with consumption of transitional indicator foods (fourth study) and with elevated lipids or blood pressure or Body Mass Index (fifth study). Labels were most useful for cohort members who read them, understood, and reacted with better health behaviour regarding processed foods. This thesis reveals the challenges of Thai nutrition labels and suggests how to improve label appearance and impact, enhancing utility of future labels and preventing diet-related NCDs.
