Originally published in the June issue of JNEB.
Native American (NA) children have a rich cultural and sensory relation- ship with food.
Consider the smell of burning sage and the beat of the drum echoing a heartbeat into the distance. The taste of Indian tacos while watching elders and children dancing in a circle with locked hands wearing vibrant regalia. All five senses implored at powwows awaken emotion entangled in traditional culture. For NAs, food symbolizes cultural connectivity and is often used as a method to gather people together.

Using Skin Carotenoid Status Technology to Evaluate Community Nutrition Interventions
Friday, October 11 | 12 - 1 p.m. ET | Register
About the Webinar
First, we will give an overview of reflectance spectroscopy technology. Then we will provide evidence of its validity as a proxy for fruit and vegetable consumption in diverse populations. Finally, we will provide several examples of the use of skin carotenoid status as measured by reflection spectroscopy to evaluate the effectiveness of interventions in corner stores, supermarkets, and schools/afterschool and childcare programs. This will include both logistical and practical issues related to use of the reflection spectroscopy to assess skin carotenoid status as a measure of change in vegetable and fruit intake in the field.

It's a grab 'n go world ... quick to prepare foods dominate across all categories according to this article @ https://www.supermarketnews.com/center-store/quick-prepare-foods-dominate-categories-across-store. Speed-scratch or assemble-and-go used to be 30 minutes or less, now it's more like 15 minutes. Sure, you can order meals delivered to your home but they're pricey and data suggests that people drop off in droves (up to 90%) after 6 months. Let's redefine "fast food" with these quick food prep ideas ideal for the summer ...

The Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics strongly supports the Institute of Education Sciences, U.S. Department of Education initiatives for "conducting surveys and evaluations and gathering statistics to improve the academic achievement and the access to high-quality education of all learners from early childhood to adulthood." Because nutrition education is a key determinant of student health, academic achievement, social interactions and behaviors, and thus overall success in career development and economic participation, we recommend priorities include a thorough assessment of nutrition education in all public schools.
