Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This first-ever Surgeon General's Report on bone health and osteoporosis illustrates the large burden that bone disease places on our Nation and its citizens. Like other chronic diseases that disproportionately affect the elderly, the prevalence of bone disease and fractures is projected to increase markedly as the population ages. If these predictions come true, bone disease and fractures will have a tremendous negative impact on the future well-being of Americans. But as this report makes clear, they need not come true: by working together we can change the picture of aging in America. Osteoporosis, fractures, and other chronic diseases no longer should be thought of as an inevitable part of growing old. By focusing on prevention and lifestyle changes, including physical activity and nutrition, as well as early diagnosis and appropriate treatment, Americans can avoid much of the damaging impact of bone disease and other chronic diseases. This Surgeon General's Report brings together for the first time the scientific evidence related to the prevention, assessment, diagnosis, and treatment of bone disease. More importantly, it provides a framework for moving forward. The report will be another effective tool in educating Americans about how they can promote bone health throughout their lives. This first-ever Surgeon General's Report on bone health and osteoporosis provides much needed information on bone health, an often overlooked aspect of physical health. This report follows in the tradition of previous Surgeon Generals' reports by identifying the relevant scientific data, rigorously evaluating and summarizing the evidence, and determining conclusions.

Download or read book Adolescent Nutrition written by Yolanda N. Evans and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-09-21 with total page 837 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Adolescents have unique nutritional needs when compared to young children and adults. As youth go through physical, cognitive, and behavioral development, nutrition needs are dynamic and changing. If these needs go undetected and remain unaddressed, the results can derail physical and social maturation and include life-long effects on health. This comprehensive text offers a multidisciplinary perspective on aspects of adolescent nutrition. Using clinical cases, it covers relevant topics related to adolescent health including normal development, chronic health conditions, and complex biopsychosocial dynamics, among others. The first section of the text contains an overview of adolescent nutrition that is further broken down into more specific topics such as developmental nutrition needs, needs of active youth and athletes and media influences on body image. The next section focuses on health disparities such as culturally appropriate care, health equity, international considerations and food insecurity. The following section specifically addresses eating disorders ranging from anorexia and bulimia to binge eating. Finally, the last section covers additional health considerations such as polycystic ovarian syndrome, teen pregnancy, substance use and gender non-conforming youth. Written by experts in the field, this book is a helpful resource for primary care medical providers, registered dietitians/nutritionists (RDN), adolescent medicine specialists, as well as advanced practice nurses, physician assistants, psychologists, licensed social workers, and certified athletic trainers. /div

This book was released on 2013-11-13 with total page 503 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Physical inactivity is a key determinant of health across the lifespan. A lack of activity increases the risk of heart disease, colon and breast cancer, diabetes mellitus, hypertension, osteoporosis, anxiety and depression and others diseases. Emerging literature has suggested that in terms of mortality, the global population health burden of physical inactivity approaches that of cigarette smoking. The prevalence and substantial disease risk associated with physical inactivity has been described as a pandemic. The prevalence, health impact, and evidence of changeability all have resulted in calls for action to increase physical activity across the lifespan. In response to the need to find ways to make physical activity a health priority for youth, the Institute of Medicine's Committee on Physical Activity and Physical Education in the School Environment was formed. Its purpose was to review the current status of physical activity and physical education in the school environment, including before, during, and after school, and examine the influences of physical activity and physical education on the short and long term physical, cognitive and brain, and psychosocial health and development of children and adolescents. Educating the Student Body makes recommendations about approaches for strengthening and improving programs and policies for physical activity and physical education in the school environment. This report lays out a set of guiding principles to guide its work on these tasks. These included: recognizing the benefits of instilling life-long physical activity habits in children; the value of using systems thinking in improving physical activity and physical education in the school environment; the recognition of current disparities in opportunities and the need to achieve equity in physical activity and physical education; the importance of considering all types of school environments; the need to take into consideration the diversity of students as recommendations are developed. This report will be of interest to local and national policymakers, school officials, teachers, and the education community, researchers, professional organizations, and parents interested in physical activity, physical education, and health for school-aged children and adolescents.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Study Design: Pre-test/post-test control group research design to test the effectiveness of an osteoporosis educational in-service program with female high school students. Background: Peak bone mass and density occur at critical critical periods primarily during adolescence. Girls developmentally start off with a lesser peak bone mass than boys and suffer more osteoporosis consquences as adult women. Purpose: To determine if adolescent girls who participate in an in-service educational program about osteoporosis and bone density development will have improved knowledge about osteoporosis and improved confidence in health behaviors for bone density development as well as improved bone-health lifestyle behaviors compared to adolescents who do not participate in an in-service educational program. Methods and Measures: Eighty four girls from two high schools in a north eastern city school district participated. One school was randomly determined as the treatment and the other as the control group. Pretests on knowledge, self-efficacy, calcium intake, and previous day physical activity were collected in the treatment and control groups. Two to three days after the initial testing, an educational in-service program about osteoporosis and osteoporosis prevention was presented to the treatment group during a 50-minute class-time block. Time was allowed for planned discussion and a calcium-rich snack. No educational in-service program was given to control group participants. Approximately a week after the educational in-service, the four test instruments were again given to all students. The differential effects of intervention vs. no intervention were determined using 2 x 2 analyses of variance. Seven dependent variables from the four test instruments were analyzed. Results: 1) Significant differences were found for the main effect of time and the main effect of group on all measures of the Osteoporosis Knowledge Test: total scores, exercise subscale scores, and calcium subscale scores. The scores were much higher at posttest for the treatment group while posttest scores remained similar to pretest scores for the control group. 2) Scores for improved confidence for conducting activities related to osteoporosis prevention were encouraging. While there were no main effects for group or time of testing, there was a significant interaction of the two. The treatment group showed significantly greater increases for self-efficacy from pretest to posttest compared to participant scores in the control group. 3) Although the interaction analyses for the behavioral tests were also significant, both for calcium consumption and metabolic equivalent task (MET) values of physical activity, performance trends did not exhibit patterns like that of the OKT and OSES, and may be misleading. Conclusion: An osteoporosis educational in-service can significantly improve overall knowledge in high school girls as well as their confidence for exercising and calcium consumption; however, it is not clear that an educational in-service alone is an adequate intervention to change nutrition or exercise lifestyle behaviors.

This book was released on 2012 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Exposures during childhood that affect bone mineral density (BMD) and bone mineral content (BMC) could have long-term effects on osteoporosis development and associated fracture risk. We evaluated associations of physical activity in late childhood, adolescence, and in young adulthood with young adult BMD and BMC using data from the Dietary Intervention Study in Children (DISC) and DISC06 Follow-up Study. Moderate/Intense physical activity (MET hours/week) was assessed by questionnaire on five occasions during childhood/adolescence and again during young adulthood. BMD and BMC were measured by dual energy x-ray absorptiometry (DEXA) scans during young adulthood. Linear mixed models were used to analyze the association of physical activity with BMD and BMC during young adulthood. Generalized linear latent affects mixed models were used to evaluate the association of the latent variable "childhood physical activity" with BMD and BMC in young adulthood. Young adult BMC and BMD increased with increasing physical activity during young adulthood after adjustment for body weight, although the test for trend was significant only for BMD. Young adult BMC increased significantly with increasing physical activity during youth. Promotion of physical activity in youth and young adulthood could potentially decrease the magnitude of osteoporosis in older women as a public health problem, but more research is needed.
