By Dr. Liji Thomas, MDMay 29 2023Reviewed by Benedette Cuffari, M.Sc. Nutrition plays a vital role in the growth and development of infants and young children. Early childhood is a critical period for establishing health eating habits that can have long-term implications for health outcomes.
Herein, researchers from the National Collaborative for Childhood Obesity Research assess the efficacy of the Dietary Guidelines for Americans in reducing childhood obesity while also identifying gaps in dietary measurements. Moreover, the researchers also propose a novel approach to identify any measurement gaps that may exist
The development of artificial intelligence -based tools for data processing and analysis is expanding. However, not enough consideration is being paid to the effect of individual, social, and systemic bias in the construction of the algorithms that underlie AI. Related StoriesThe adoption of bite-counting technology could lead to more accurate assessments of energy and nutrient intake in infants and young children. It may also help identify feeding patterns, preferences, and associations between dietary behaviors and health outcomes.
Importantly, future studies are needed to validate bite-counting technology as compared to established dietary assessment methods. By comparing the accuracy and reliability of bite counts with other measures, researchers can establish the validity of this new approach and ensure its applicability across diverse populations.
