Evidence shows that <strong>non-communicable diseases<\/strong>, responsible of <strong>41 million death each year <\/strong>(74% of all deaths globally), can be <strong>prevented <\/strong>when a<strong>dopting a healthy diet<\/strong> (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.who.int\/news-room\/fact-sheets\/detail\/noncommunicable-diseases#:~:text=The%20main%20types%20of%20NCD,disease%20and%20asthma)%20and%20diabetes.\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">WHO, 2023<\/a>). Dietary recommendations are then essential and should be supported by healthcare systems and their actors. Indeed, <strong>healthcare practitioners <\/strong>play a <strong>key role<\/strong> in healthcare systems as they are <strong>primary sources of referrals<\/strong> and are <strong>greatly trusted<\/strong> by the general population. Yet, it has been shown that <strong>nutritional care remains insufficient<\/strong> from healthcare practitioners due to a <strong>lack of knowledge<\/strong>, <strong>time<\/strong>, and <strong>tools <\/strong>to enhance the dialogue with patients (<a href=\"https:\/\/pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/35634903\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Carter et al., 2023<\/a>).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Global Fruit and Veg Newsletter of this month presents three articles confirming the<strong> importance of nutritional care<\/strong> in <strong>healthcare systems<\/strong> and gives tools for practitioners to improve their ability of providing some.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The first article is based on a clinical consensus that discusses <strong>practical approaches<\/strong> to how nutritional care and promotion should be undertaken in primary and secondary care and in public health. It highlights the <strong>need to incorporate nutritional counseling<\/strong> <strong>for all individuals<\/strong> and <strong>bringing primary prevention at the center of patient\u2019s healthcare<\/strong>. The paper also shows the <strong>importance of nutrition in cardiac rehabilitations programs<\/strong>, in <strong>sports medicine<\/strong> to avoid nutritional supplements and for <strong>children with cardiovascular diseases<\/strong> to provide the appropriate support and nutritional counselling.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The second study explores the <strong>impact of a nutrition education intervention<\/strong> on the <strong>dietary habits<\/strong>, <strong>competencies <\/strong>and <strong>self-efficacy<\/strong> of <strong>Ghanaian medical students<\/strong>. This intervention <strong>improved nutrition care knowledge<\/strong> and <strong>increased the consumption of vegetable<\/strong>s by <strong>enhancing dietary diversity<\/strong> among medical students. Their <strong>ability<\/strong>, <strong>confidence<\/strong>, and <strong>awareness <\/strong>to <strong>provide nutrition care <\/strong>to their patients <strong>improved <\/strong>as well. This article highlights the <strong>effective impact of including nutrition education<\/strong> in the <strong>medicine curriculum<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The last article investigates the &#8220;<strong>patient-general practitioner<\/strong>&#8221; <strong>interactions <\/strong>according to the <strong>patient\u2019s body weight<\/strong>. It was found that the <strong>higher the degree of the patient\u2019s excess weight was, the greater the disagreement between patients and general practitioners was<\/strong>, especially on questions related to weight. It was also shown that <strong>overweight and obese patients tend to have a different perception<\/strong> of the <strong>causes and consequences of excess weight<\/strong>. This study highlights the<strong> importance of the dialogue in consultations with patients<\/strong>, especially on <strong>weight-related topics<\/strong>. The authors encourage physicians to <strong>develop communication skills <\/strong>and<strong> train in motivational interviewing<\/strong> to <strong>improve their relationship with their patients<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Together, these three articles place <strong>nutritional care at the centre<\/strong> of <strong>healthcare systems<\/strong> and show how a <strong>nutrition formation<\/strong> can lead to an <strong>improvement <\/strong>of the <strong>physician\u2019s ability to provide nutritional counselling<\/strong>. They also highlight the <strong>importance of the dialogue<\/strong> <strong>to address the topic of weight<\/strong>, <strong>beyond practitioner\u2019s\u2019 nutritional knowledge<\/strong> to maintain <strong>great interactions<\/strong> with <strong>patients<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"block__pictureable\">\n            <div class=\"block__pictureable__item\">\n            <div class=\"block__pictureable__authorPicture\">\n                <img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/aprifel-pp.mentalworks.biz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/Image1.jpg\">\n            <\/div>\n            <div class=\"block__pictureable__information\">\n                <strong class=\"block__pictureable__name\">Raluca ZOITANU <\/strong>\n                <span class=\"block__pictureable__profession\">Family Doctor, Bucharest, Romania<\/span>\n                <div class=\"block__pictureable__separator\"><\/div>\n                <span class=\"block__pictureable__info\"><\/span>\n            <\/div>\n        <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"block__about\">\n    <strong class=\"block__about__title\">About the author<\/strong>\n    <div class=\"block__about__content\"><p>Raluca Zoitanu is a family doctor in Bucharest, Romania with a special interest in quality improvement and patient safety, health systems and digital health.\u202fShe used to be the president of the National Federation of Family Medicine Employers in Romania and WONCA Europe Executive Board and European Young Family Doctors Movement Executive Group member. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"According to the World Health Organization, health is defined by &#8220;a state of complete physical, mental and social well-being and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity&#8221; (WHO Constitution, 1946).
