ABSTRACT Refugees resettled in a new country face a nutritional challenge due to difficulty in finding traditional foods and acculturation to the new diet. This preliminary study investigated prenatal nutritional practices among the Bhutanese refugee women resettled in Salt Lake City, Utah. Bhutanese women (n = 38) who have experienced pregnancy in the US were surveyed on practices influencing prenatal nutrition and care, food security issues, and cultural beliefs. Results from this study showed most women attending prenatal visits, eating a reasonably balanced diet – more vegetables and less meat, with a fasting rate of 10%.

ABSTRACT Objective was to assess amount of/reasons for, unused food from client-choice and traditional food pantries through a prospective, observational study. Two weeks after baseline visits, clients estimated percentage of products consumed and reported why unused products were not consumed through interviews. Participants were 28 clients from Baltimore, MD pantries. Clients reported consuming perishable foods first compared to shelf-stable foods. The most common reason for not using items was “plan to use later.” There were no significant differences in unused food between pantry models. Future studies on client food waste should include larger samples and longer follow-up periods.

Using an embedded mixed-methods approach, this study assesses efforts to improve nutritional quality of inventory at food banks. All else equal, food banks with medium and high levels of nutrition-focused food banking strategy adoption had lower mean percentages of unhealthy inventory compared to those with none. Despite positive progress in the charitable food system as a whole, national key stakeholders identified several challenges, including cost and donor reliance, in continuing this work. Findings highlight the significant progress of food banks to adopt nutrition-focused strategies and distribute healthier foods and underscore the role these strategies may have in shaping inventory quality.

ABSTRACT During the COVID-19 pandemic, food insecurity increased across the United States, with college students being particularly vulnerable. This study surveyed 1989 undergraduates attending three public colleges before and during the first year of the pandemic. At all times, students’ food insecurity was related to worse academic performance, greater housing insecurity, poorer psychological and physical health, and less access to healthcare. Compared to pre-pandemic students, during-pandemic students reported greater use of and fewer barriers to food programs, spending more on and and receiving more government aid for food, experiencing more academic difficulties due to food insecurity, having greater housing insecurity, and enduring less access to healthcare.

This study aims to assess the effectiveness of the WIC program at improving children's dietary quality and to evaluate whether the 2009 food benefit revision further improved the WIC program. A sample of 1,753 children aged between 2 to 4 years from the 2005-2008 and 2011-2016 NHANES was analyzed using a propensity score weighted difference-in-difference approach. Results show that WIC-participating children scored 2.98 points higher (SD: 0.89; P<0.01) in HEI-2015 total scores compared with income-eligible non-participants during 2011-2016. No significant change was observed in the differences of HEI-2015 scores between WIC participants and eligible non-participants from 2005-2008 to 2011-2016.
