Middenin deze ongezonde voedselomgeving zit een vmbo-school. Precies daar heeft HAS green academy samen met de leerlingen onderzoek …

Objectives: Sufficient protein intake is important for older adults to prevent sarcopenia. Better insight into dietary characteristics may be helpful to improve daily protein intake.Therefore, this study aimed to compare characteristics of community-dwelling older adults with distinct amounts of daily …

Objectives Adherence to lifestyle interventions is crucial for the treatment of obesity. However, there is little research about adherence to lifestyle interventions in persons around retirement age. The objectives of this study are (1) to identify factors associated with the adherence to resistance …

In Den Bosch zijn vijf onderwijsinstellingen gevestigd aan de Onderwijsboulevard. Om te onderzoeken wat de effecten zijn van interventies in de voedselomgeving, hebben studenten van de minor 'Creating a healthy food environment' van HAS green academy in 2022 een baseline meting uitgevoerd.

Leerlingen en studenten staan aan het begin van hun zelfstandige leven, vaak de fase dat het thuisfront steeds minder invloed heeft op het eetgedrag. Reden voor studenten van de HAS in Den Bosch om de voedselomgeving op de onderwijsboulevard in kaart te brengen.

Background: The diagnosis of sarcopenia is essential for early treatment of sarcopenia in older adults, for which assessment of appendicular lean mass (ALM) is needed. Multi-frequency bio-electrical impedance analysis (MF-BIA) may be a valid assessment tool to assess ALM in older adults, but the evidences …

Background & aims: In dietary practice, it is common to estimate protein requirements on actual bodyweight, but corrected bodyweight (in cases with BMI <20 kg/m2 and BMI ≥30 kg/m2) and fat free mass (FFM) are also used. Large differences on individual level are noticed in protein requirements using these …

Background & aims: Overweight and obesity can cause several health risks, and weight loss can help reduce them. However, weight loss in older adults is associated with loss of muscle mass and bone mineral density. To prevent this, it is important to monitor changes in FFM. Bioelectrical impedance analysis …

Background:  A protein intake of 30‐40 g per meal is suggested to maximally stimulate muscle protein synthesis in older adults and could therefore contribute to the prevention of sarcopenia. Protein intake at breakfast and lunch is often low and offers a great opportunity to improve daily protein intake. …
