The comparison of the anthropometric indicators on nutrition between hypertesives and normal people at Tien Phuong commune showed that abdominal, hip circumferences and the ratio of abdominal and hip circumference in hypertensives were significantly higher in female and male than those in the normal people (p<0.05-0.001). Weight and BMI (body mass index) were significantly higher in female and skinfold thickness was higher in male group, only (p<0.05-0.001); these indicators were also significantly lower than those of the hypertensives cared for health in Huu Nghi Hospital (p<0.01-0.001). Weight, BMI, abdominal circumference, and the ratio of abdominal and hip circumferences are the valid indicators for supervising nutritional status and preventing of hypertension in the elderly.

This paper introduced the design of a rational nutritional regimen for Vietnamese with the level of physical exercise that was the same as rapid walking a hour a day or other equal activity. This nutritional regimen comprised lipid (15-20%, balance ratio of oil and animal fat), glucid (65-75%), equal meat, fish and soybean, more than 300g of fresh vegetables and less than 10g salt daily.

Enteral feeding therapy has existed since ancient Egypt, but most of the major advances in enteral nutrient techniques and formulas have taken place during the 20th century through the development of sources and ingredients This review provides a historical account of enteral nutrition (EN), including the sources and formulation of macro-and micro-nutrients in the formula and how to manufacture them. The formulas were improved by the development of raw materials that are easier to digest and the next formula is expected to develop functionality using more raw materials, such as ω-3, amino acid, and more functional ingredients to heal the disease.

BACKGROUND: Gejang (marinated crab) is a favorite traditional food and a main source of crab intake among Koreans. The present study aimed to identify the possibility of cadmium inflow to the body through gejang; accordingly, the relationship between gejang intake frequency and amount, and blood cadmium concentrations was investigated. METHODS: Using data from the first Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey in the sixth period in 2013, means and standard errors of blood cadmium concentrations in relation to gejang intake frequency and amount, as well as the monthly intake of gejang, were obtained from 1381 participants for whom data regarding blood cadmium concentration measurements was available. RESULTS: After adjustment for confounding factors, a gejang intake frequency of four or fewer times per week and a monthly intake of 200 cm3 or less had no significant effect on blood cadmium concentrations. However, participants with gejang intake of at least five times per week had a weighted mean cadmium concentration of 2.12 μg/L (p < 0.001), and participants who had a gejang monthly intake of more than 200 cm3 had a weighted mean cadmium concentration of 1.76 μg/L (p < 0.001). CONCLUSION: These results suggest that to minimize the effect of gejang consumption on blood cadmium level, gejang intake should be limited to four or less times per week and 200 cm3 or less per month. Weekly intake of at least five times and monthly intake of more than 200 cm3 may increase blood cadmium levels.

Malnutrition status of children from 0 to 60 months of age in two agricultural communes in Thanh Hoa province from July 20 to October 20/2000 was investigated. The indicatior of weigh/age shows a rate of 54% of malnutrition. In graphic this rate increases dramatically in the period of 23-34 months of age, the highest is in 25-36 months of age. Digestive ferment Aplaza, a functional food, in combining with local available source of food improved significantly the nutritional state and prevented this malnutritional condition. This is an eligible way of high efficacy to strengthen the awareness and the practice of nutrition, aiding the poor population in rural area
