Use of Automated Self-administered 24-hour Recalls (ASA24-2011) and Diet Quality Scores to Characterize Women who Met or Exceeded Weight Gain Recommendations during Pregnancy
This study assessed nutrient intake, diet quality and GWG of participants in the Pregnancy, Exercise, and Nutrition (PEN) feasibility study who met or exceeded weight gain recommendations during pregnancy. The ASA24-2011, a web-based tool, was used to collect dietary intake data and dietary quality was assessed with the Healthy Eating Index (HEI)-2010 and the Diet Quality Index-Pregnancy (DQI-P). Fifty-three percent of PEN participants exceeded the 2009 IOM GWG recommendations; no significant associations were found between reported dietary quality and gestational weight gain.

Use of Diet-tracking Websites as a Resource for Hard-to-Find Food Label Information: An Example Using Specialty Grocery Store Items
Publication date: 2015 Source:Procedia Food Science, Volume 4 Author(s): Cheryl H. Gilhooly , Stephanie Movsesian , Natalie Royal , Anna Chew , Ning Qiao Many specialty foods cannot be found in research-focused food databases. However, some nutrient data can be found for many of these foods through individual website searches using brand and store names. Some popular diet-tracking websites contain data for over 3 million foods, data often entered by consumers, based on non-systematic searches. The reliability of these data to guide dietary data entry decisions are unknown. Five popular diet tracking websites were ...

Recipe calculation of six Iranian Egg-based Dishes (KuKu)
Publication date: 2015 Source:Procedia Food Science, Volume 4 Author(s): Mitra Ghazizadeh , Mahmoud Behnammoradi Nutrient content of six Iranian egg- based dishes (KuKu) was estimated by recipe calculation method. Kuku dishes were prepared by mixing vegetables and herbs such as cauliflower, eggplant, green beans, green herbs and leafy vegetables, potatoes, and zucchini with eggs and seasonings through frying both sides over low heat. Proximate composition of 100g edible part of dishes was: 45.22 - 75.61g Water, 1.54 - 2.10g Ash, 4.84 - 6.98g protein, 12.28 - 37.78g total fat, 3.83 -17.75g carbohydrate, 1.3 - 3.82g di...

Origins and Evolution of the National Nutrient Databank Conference
Publication date: 2015 Source:Procedia Food Science, Volume 4 Author(s): Phyllis J. Stumbo Food composition tables are largely a twentieth century product. The early tables in America developed by W. O. Atwater in the 1890's at the Storrs Connecticut Agricultural Experiment Station grew exponentially during the first half of the 20th century as one after another vitamin and mineral was found to be essential for life. As tables became more complex the user required better tools for calculating food composition. The rapid growth of computer applications in the mid to late 20th century allowed nutritionists to access the...
