父母應(yīng)該讓孩子愛(ài)吃水果,,而不是愛(ài)喝果汁,。
近日,,國(guó)際期刊Pediatric Obesity刊登了一項(xiàng)最新的研究表明,三分之一的兒童喝掉過(guò)多果汁,,尤其是低收入家庭的兒童,,這已經(jīng)影響到兒童的健康,,讓他們更容易肥胖,,以及得蛀牙。
美國(guó)兒科協(xié)會(huì)規(guī)定,,6歲以下兒童每天不得飲用超過(guò)1杯果汁,。但美國(guó)密歇根大學(xué)一項(xiàng)調(diào)查表明,606對(duì)1—5歲兒童的父母中,,有3分之1表示他們的孩子每天喝掉超過(guò)2杯果汁;一半以上收入低于3萬(wàn)美元的父母表示,,他們的孩子每天喝超過(guò)2杯果汁,;而那些年升入超過(guò)10萬(wàn)美元的家庭中,只有23%的父母表示他們的孩子每天喝超過(guò)1杯果汁,。
研究人員表示,,許多父母給孩子喝果汁是為了補(bǔ)充維生素,但果汁中加入了更多糖分,,會(huì)影響兒童體重,,并會(huì)導(dǎo)致牙齒疾病。因此,,父母應(yīng)該培養(yǎng)孩子直接吃水果的習(xí)慣,,而不是喝果汁。(生物谷 Bioon.com)

Objectives
This study will test the efficacy of motivational interviewing (MI) conducted by primary care providers and dieticians among children ages 2-8 years old with a body mass index (BMI) ≥85th and ≤97th percentile.
Methods
Forty-two practices from the American Academy of Pediatrics, Pediatric Research in Office Settings Network were assigned to one of three groups. Group 1 (usual care) measures BMI percentile at baseline, and at 1- and 2-year follow-ups and receives standard health education materials. Group 2 providers deliver three proactive MI counselling sessions with a parent of the index child in Year 1 and one additional ‘booster’ visit in Year 2. Group 3 adds six MI counselling sessions from a trained dietician. The primary outcome is the child's BMI percentile at 2-year follow-up. Secondary outcomes include parent report of the child's screen time, physical activity, intake of fruits and vegetables, and sugar-sweetened beverages.
Results
We enrolled 633 eligible children whose mean BMI percentile was 92.0 and mean age of 5.1. The cohort was 57% female. Almost 70% of parents reported a household income of ≥$40 000 per year, and 39% had at least a college education. The cohort was 63% White, 23% Hispanic, 7% Black and 7% Asian. Parent self-reported confidence that their child will achieve a healthy weight was on average an 8 (out of 10).
Conclusion
To date, several aspects of the study can inform similar efforts including our ability to use volunteer clinicians to recruit participants and their willingness to dedicate their time, without pay, to receive training in MI.
