The results revealed that every vegetable contained the highest concentration of Zn range from 15 ± 1.4 to 50 ± 4.0 mg/kg fresh weight. Trace metals in vegetables exceeded the permissible level of FAO and WHO standard. The non-carcinogenic and carcinogenic risks were estimated on the basis of estimated daily intake (EDI), target hazard quotient (THQ), hazard index (HI) and target carcinogenic risks (TRs). The EDI values of all trace metals were below the maximum tolerable daily intake (MTDI). Total target hazard quotient (TTHQ) were greater than 1, indicated that if people consume these types of vegetables in their diet, they might pose risk to these metals. Finally, the total cancer risks (TRs) values were 6.4 × 10−3 for As and 8.7 × 10−5 for Pb which were greater than threshold value of USEPA (10−6), indicating that the consuming inhabitants of these vegetables are exposed to As and Pb with a lifetime cancer risk.]]> Wed 28 Feb 2024 15:20:23 AEDT ]]> The relationship between dietary polyphenol intakes and urinary polyphenol concentrations in adults prescribed a high vegetable and fruit diet https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:38719 Wed 19 Jan 2022 08:47:08 AEDT ]]> Heavy Metals in Widely Consumed Vegetables Grown in Industrial Areas of Bangladesh: a Potential Human Health Hazard https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:51675  10−4) for both adults and children, indicating lifetime cancer risk due to the consumption of contaminated vegetables. The target hazard quotient (THQ) of each heavy metal was THQ < 1.0 (except Ni in few samples), indicating that consumers have no non-cancer risk when exposed to a single heavy metal. However, hazard index (HI) values of heavy metals were greater than unity in contaminated WC and AW for adults and children. Meanwhile, WC, AW, and SP samples for children emerged as potential health risks of inhabitants in the studied areas. The outcomes of the present investigation might assist the regulatory bodies concerned in setting new strategies through monitoring the quality of marketed vegetables to minimize the risks to humans.]]> Wed 13 Sep 2023 13:30:19 AEST ]]> Frequency of Convenience Cooking Product Use Is Associated with Cooking Confidence, Creativity, and Markers of Vegetable Intake https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:52452 Wed 11 Oct 2023 15:01:49 AEDT ]]> Increasing the fruit and vegetable consumption of preschool children https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:12642 Wed 11 Apr 2018 12:09:12 AEST ]]> Effectiveness of a multi-strategy intervention in increasing the implementation of vegetable and fruit breaks by Australian primary schools: a non-randomized controlled trial https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:12898 Wed 11 Apr 2018 11:14:00 AEST ]]> Fruit and vegetable intake and body mass index in a large sample of middle-aged australian men and women https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:17447 Wed 11 Apr 2018 10:46:08 AEST ]]> Factors associated with the implementation of a vegetable and fruit program in a population of Australian elementary schools https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:32922 Wed 04 Sep 2019 09:39:18 AEST ]]> Fruit, vegetable and dietary carotenoid intakes explain variation in skin-color in young Caucasian women: A cross-sectional study https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:20311 Wed 02 Oct 2019 10:17:37 AEST ]]> 'Better Health Choices' by telephone: a feasibility trial of improving diet and physical activity in people diagnosed with psychotic disorders https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:15660 Tue 16 Oct 2018 13:11:28 AEDT ]]> Increasing fruit and vegetable variety over time is associated with lower 15-year healthcare costs: Results from the Australian longitudinal study on women’s health https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:44293 Tue 11 Oct 2022 15:51:37 AEDT ]]> The application of low pressure storage to maintain the quality of zucchinis https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:33421 Cucurbita pepo var. cylindrica) were stored at low pressure (4 kPa) at 10°C at 100% relative humidity (RH) for 11 days. Fruit quality was examined upon removal and after being transferred to normal atmosphere (101 kPa) at 20°C for three days. Zucchinis stored at low pressure exhibited a 50% reduction in stem-end browning compared with fruit stored at atmospheric pressure (101 kPa) at 10°C. The benefit of low pressure treatment was maintained after the additional three days storage at normal atmospheric pressure at 20°C. Indeed, low pressure treated fruit transferred to regular atmosphere 20°C for three days possessed a significantly lower incidence of postharvest rot compared to fruit stored at regular atmospheric pressure at 10°C. Zucchinis stored at low pressure showed higher levels of acceptability (28% and 36 % respectively) compared to fruit stored at regular atmospheres at 10°C for both assessment times.]]> Tue 03 Sep 2019 18:18:41 AEST ]]> Correlations between convenience cooking product use and vegetable intake https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:45553 Tue 01 Nov 2022 11:03:26 AEDT ]]> Impact and evaluation of an online culinary nutrition course for health, education and industry professionals to promote vegetable knowledge and consumption https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:50556 Tue 01 Aug 2023 10:28:51 AEST ]]> Interventions for increasing fruit and vegetable consumption in children aged five years and under (review) https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:32487 Thu 30 Apr 2020 13:39:02 AEST ]]> Interventions for increasing fruit and vegetable consumption in children aged 5 years and under (review) https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:36425 Thu 30 Apr 2020 13:32:09 AEST ]]> Interventions for increasing fruit and vegetable consumption in children aged five years and under (review) https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:31041 Thu 30 Apr 2020 13:00:41 AEST ]]> Healthy eating interventions delivered in early childhood education and care settings for improving the diet of children aged six months to six years https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:51242 Thu 25 Jan 2024 15:26:55 AEDT ]]> Should We ‘Eat a Rainbow’?

Following HCFV there was a significantly greater increase in skin yellowness (b*) in both sun-exposed (P<0.001) and unexposed areas, (P<0.001), with no change in skin lightness (L*) or redness (a*). Significantly higher plasma alpha carotene (P=0.004), beta carotene (P=0.001), and lutein (P=0.028) concentrations were found following the HCFV intervention.

At 6-months 143 participants completed a second mFRTM and a questionnaire evaluating the dietary feedback. Participants who agreed the text messages made them think about how much vegetables they ate were more likely to increase their intake by at least half a serve than those who disagreed [odds ratio (OR) = 4.28, 95% Confidence Interval (CI): 1.76 to 10.39]. Those who agreed the text messages made them think about how much EDNP foods they ate, were twice as likely to decrease their intake by over half a serve (OR = 2.39, 95%CI: 1.12 to 5.25) than those who disagreed.
