RESEARCH FOCUS: Public Health Nutrition
Areas of Interest: (1) Maternal Nutrition in Pregnancy (2) Nutrition and Health (3) Nutrition Status Assessments and (4) Diet Quality and Nutrient adequacy.
- (1)Maternal Nutrition in Pregnancy: Adequate diet in pregnancy ensures maternal nutrient needs, foetal growth requirements, obviates low birth weight and preparedness for successful lactation. Nutrition in pregnancy does not submit itself to the conventional methods. High maternal mortality ratio, low birth weight, infant mortality are all related to malnutrition. A table of reference of weights in pregnancy is my significant contribution (papers 4,5,6,7,14,25,31,34,35,45).
- (2)Nutrition and Health: Overweight and obesity are veritable links between diet, nutrition and disease. These predispose not only to hypertension, diabetes mellitus but also to hyperlipidaemia and heart diseases. Street foods also pose the issue of food safety (from microbial load). Also diet is important in the prevention and management of diseases. That dietary approach to stop hypertension (DASH), was efficacious in Ekiti state is a significant contribution (8,13,16,23,26,32,37,41,44).
- (3)Nutritional status Assessments: An assessment must be conducted to define and describe nutritional problems in populations or groups. Where possible population-specific standards are better for anthropometric assessments. Also biochemical methods though accurate are expensive and technically-challenging. I have provided a table of weight and heights for young adults useful in Nigeria (9, 11, 39, 40, 43, and 46).
- (4)Diet Quality and Nutrient Adequacy: The quality of diets is in part related to it variety and diversity. Dietary pattern describes the prevalent diseases in communities. Nutrient content of foods are fundamental information in the science and application of Nutrition (15, 17, 18, 20, 21, 24, 26, and 36). Dietary diversity, portion and serving sizes, comparing two groups of seasonings are significant contributions
