TL;DR: This study investigates consumer opinions towards a series of food choices with a lower ecological impact, which range from well-known meat substitutes to alternatives which are more radical or innovative and that require an adaptation of food habits and cultural patterns.

TL;DR: It is suggested that there is a causal link running from HFS diet to impaired brain function in humans, and that HFS diets also contribute to the development of neurodegenerative conditions.

TL;DR: Despite regulation, children in the UK are exposed to considerable numbers of food adverts on television, which have been shown to cause significant increases in intake, particularly in overweight and obese children, and enhanced preference for high carbohydrate and high fat foods in children who consume the greatest amounts of televisual media.

TL;DR: Results for parenting style studies are inconsistent due to differences in conceptualization and measurement, while the results for feeding styles are much more cohesive, and an authoritative style appears to be the most protective parenting and feeding style.

TL;DR: Ass associations between habitual sleep parameters and dietary/nutritional variables obtained via the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) may help to better understand the complex relationship between diet and sleep and the potential role of diet in the relationship between sleep and obesity and other cardiometabolic risks.

TL;DR: How parental factors contribute to the development of common feeding problems are described, and the merits of existing interventions aimed at parents/primary caregivers to improve child-feeding and children's eating behaviour are discussed.

TL;DR: It was found that high emotional eaters ate significantly more after the sad mood condition than after the joy mood condition, and a similar moderator effect for emotional eating was found for intake of sweet food but not for Intake of salty food.

TL;DR: The state of research as regards consumers' perception of organic product characteristics, including basic and additional characteristics, product labelling, product innovations and the range of products on the market is displayed in this contribution.

TL;DR: Results suggest that exercise is effective for producing a short-term energy deficit and that individuals tend not to compensate for the energy expended during exercise in the immediate hours after exercise by altering food intake.

TL;DR: Findings suggest that individuals attempting to lose weight while combating symptoms of food addiction may be especially prone to eating-related pathologies, internalized weight bias, and body shame.

TL;DR: The results indicated the expansion of the TPB to include the constructs of moral attitude and ethical self-identity added significantly to the predictive model measuring intention to purchase sustainably sourced food.

TL;DR: Findings indicate a multidisciplinary intervention focusing on emotion and stress management in addition to dietary behavior change should be developed to reduce the potential for weight gain associated with emotional eating in the college-aged population.

TL;DR: Results showed EFT reduced DD similarly for lean and overweight/obese individuals and the EFT effect was moderated by behavioral activation, suggesting EFT is just as effective in reducing impulsive decision making in obese individuals as it is in lean individuals and may be useful in reducing other impulsive obesity related behaviors.

TL;DR: A field-experiment in an on-campus food court showed that the healthy descriptive norm resulted in more healthy food choices, compared to an unhealthy descriptive norm, as well as the control condition.

TL;DR: IS was not only positively related to total IES score and RIH and EPR, and negatively predicted BMI, but also proved to fully mediate the negative relationship between RIH, as well as EPR and BMI, which represents a promising mechanism in research on eating behavior and body weight.

TL;DR: The results suggest that ethical vegetarians could experience stronger feelings of conviction and consume fewer animal products than health vegetarians, and may remain vegetarian longer.

TL;DR: Positive emotions serve as an important but under-investigated trigger for unhealthy food intake that deserves further scrutiny and should be investigated in a sample of healthy participants with a normal weight.

TL;DR: Prevention programs that target self-efficacy for eating and peer support for unhealthy eating may be beneficial in improving dietary choices among adolescents.

TL;DR: Clinicians should discuss the concept of intuitive eating with their young adult patients to promote healthier weight-related outcomes, and find that intuitive eating practices are inversely associated with a number of harmful outcomes.

TL;DR: The Responsiveness to Child Feeding Cues Scale (RCFCS), an observational measure of caregiver responsiveness to child feeding cues relevant to obesity, is developed and assessed.

TL;DR: It is suggested that hunger induces an approach bias and is associated with an impairment of response inhibition when normal-weight participants are confronted with food-associated cues and individualized treatment approaches taking into account the experience of hunger in everyday-life situations should be considered.

TL;DR: An international study on salt intake and associated behaviours in the general population provides unique insights into issues surrounding salt reduction and should be used to develop effective salt reduction strategies and/or policies.

TL;DR: The results showed that nutrition knowledge was significantly associated with higher adherence to a Mediterranean dietary pattern and with lower prevalence of obesity in a Southern Italian region with Mediterranean diet tradition independently from education and other socioeconomic factors.

TL;DR: The significant flavor preferences and increased intake produced by the nutrient infusions appear to involve stimulatory gut-brain signals, referred to here as appetition signals, that are distinct from the satiation signals that suppress feeding.

TL;DR: The current findings underline the importance of positive emotions in emotional eating, and provide new insights on the relationship between eating and mood melioration, which is often presumed to eat in response to negative emotions.

TL;DR: Manipulating choice sets by including healthier options is an effective strategy to increase the healthfulness of food choices, and colour coding increased consumers' perceived capability of making healthful choices.

TL;DR: Within the entire study population, health-related vegan motive coincided with regular exercise; 71% normal BMI (mean=22.6); minimal alcohol and smoking practices; frequently consumed vegetables, nuts, and grains; healthy choices in meal types, cooking methods, and low-fat product consumption; and adequate intakes for most protective nutrients when compared to reference values.

TL;DR: Support is found for social appearance anxiety as a shared risk factor between social anxiety and eating disorder symptoms, whereas fear of negative evaluation was a risk factor only for social anxiety symptoms.
