Contribution to the Journal Ciência & Saúde Coletiva on Food and Nutrition in Brazil

Abstract

A systematic review conducted in January 2020 using SciELO database with the objective of analyzing the scientific production from 1996-2019, of the Journal Ciência & Saúde Coletiva in the area of food and nutrition. We selected 509 out of the 904 articles screened by titles and abstracts. We grouped the articles into ten themes and discussed the most frequent ones: Nutritional Status Assessment (n=142), Food Intake (n=111), Food and Nutrition Policies and Programmes (n=105) and Breastfeeding (n=35). The publications were mostly original articles (75.6%) employing quantitative method (81.6%) and, among these, 18.8% used a probabilistic sampling. We assembled a wide range of topics and subthemes, a relevant production and repository of data and knowledge for health professionals and managers. As gaps, there was a scarcity of publications focused on micronutrient deficiency; the promotion of the Food Guide for the Brazilian Population; supporting the rise of breastfeeding, the impact and analyses of the disruption of the National Food and Nutrition Security Policy and its multi sector interactions with social policies to fight hunger.

Introduction

Nutrition as a science, as subject of public policies and as a career emerged in Brazil in the early 1930s. Nutrition constitutes a complex and multidisciplinary field even though the professional training is historically part of the health sector and centred on biological sciences approaches11 Bosi MLM, Prado SD. Alimentação e Nutrição em Saúde Coletiva: constituição, contornos e estatuto científico. Cien Saude Colet 2011; 16(1):7-17.,22 Vasconcelos FAG, Batista Filho M. História do campo da Alimentação e Nutrição em Saúde Coletiva no Brasil. Cien Saude Colet 2011; 16(1):81-90..

Over the last three decades, the Brazilian society has faced profound economic, political and social changes with repercussions in the nutrition profile of the country. Among these can be underlined those related to the nutritional epidemiological scenario that began to be configured in the country from the 1990s. On one hand we had nutritional diseases related to poverty and socio economic inequalities (protein energy malnutrition, vitamin A deficiency, iron deficiency anaemia, etc.), already prevalent in the 1930s when nutrition emerged as a scientific field. On the other hand, we observed a rise of nutritional diseases associated with lifestyle, wealth, technological advances and modernity (obesity, diabetes, dyslipidaemias, hypertension, certain types of cancer, etc.), more prevalent in the current context33 Recine E, Vasconcellos AB. Políticas nacionais e o campo da Alimentação e Nutrição em Saúde Coletiva: cenário atual. Cien Saude Colet 2011;16(1):73-79.

The first paper on the Nutrition field dates from 2002. The Journal Ciência & Saúde Coletiva (C&SC) vol. 7, number 2, adopted the modality of a debate titled “for the critique of nutritional transition88 Escoda MSQ. Para a crítica da transição nutricional. Cien Saude Colet 2002; 7(2):219-226.. This concept appeared in the country in mid-1990s and indicated the need of agreeing upon new explanatory and interventional paradigms appropriate to the new Brazilian food and nutritional reality22 Vasconcelos FAG, Batista Filho M. História do campo da Alimentação e Nutrição em Saúde Coletiva no Brasil. Cien Saude Colet 2011; 16(1):81-90.,55 Souza NP, Lira PIC, Fontbonne A, Pinto FCL, Cesse EÂP.

Some studies have investigated the scientific production of the nutrition field, published in national journals, using diverse objectives, conceptual approaches and methodological procedures99 Olinto MTA, Lira PIC, Marchini JS, Kac G.

Rev Nutr 2011; 24(6):917-926. listed and ranked 20 journals with the highest numbers of publications by the Post Graduate Programs in Nutrition. From 2007 to 2009, the three highest were The Brazilian Journal of Nutrition (n = 100), Cadernos de Saúde Pública (n = 63) and C&SC (n = 63). A more recent review of the Scientific Electronic Library (SciELO) until September 2016, Vasconcelos1010 Vasconcelos FAG. The scientific production of Nutrition published by the Scientific Electronic Library under the gaze of the evaluation of the Coordination for the Development of Higher Education Personnel. Rev Nutr 2017; 30(2):147-161. listed 779 articles published in 85 journals. The five journals with the highest number of publications were The Brazilian Journal of Nutrition (n = 177), Cadernos de Saúde Pública (n = 84), Saúde Pública Journal (n = 60), C&SC (n = 50) and The Journal of Paediatrics (n = 36)1010 Vasconcelos FAG. The scientific production of Nutrition published by the Scientific Electronic Library under the gaze of the evaluation of the Coordination for the Development of Higher Education Personnel. Rev Nutr 2017; 30(2):147-161..

This article aims to analyse the scientific production of (SCHJ) on Food and Nutrition from 1996 to 2019, seeking to conduct a brief dialogue with the scientific literature in the international scenario.

Methods

This is a systematic review of articles published in the C&SC in the area of Food and Nutrition, since its creation in 1996 up to the end of 2019.

We conducted this search using the SciELO database in January 7th, 2020 and the C&SC filter. After a brainstorming among the authors, we searched for subjects and indexes to capture a maximum number of words related to Food and Nutrition. We searched strategically for those with similar roots and added prefixes and suffixes, in Portuguese, Spanish and English.

These words were intrinsically inclusive and tracked articles contained them in their title or abstract. We included the following key words: “NUTRICAO or NUTRICIO or NUTRICIONAIS or NUTRICIONAL or NUTRICIONISTA or NUTRIENTES or NUTRIENTS or NUTRITION or NUTRITIONAL or NUTRITIONIST or NUTRITIVE or NUTRITIVOS or NUTRIZ OR MICRONUTRIENT or MICRONUTRIENTE or MICRONUTRIENTS or MICRONUTRIENTES or ALIMENTA or ALIMENTACAO or ALIMENTACION or ALIMENTADA or ALIMENTAM or ALIMENTAN or ALIMENTANDO or ALIMENTAR or ALIMENTARAM or ALIMENTAREM or ALIMENTARES or ALIMENTARIA or ALIMENTARIO or ALIMENTARIOS or ALIMENTARIUS or ALIMENTARY or ALIMENTICIOS or ALIMENTO or ALIMENTOS or ALIMENTOSA or DIET or DIETA or DIETARIA or DIETARY or DIETARYRISK or DIETAS or DIETETIC or DIETETICA or DIETETICAS or DIETETICO or DIETETICOS or DIETETICS or INGESTA or INGESTAO or INGESTION or FEED or FEEDING or CONSUMO or CONSUMPTION or FOOD or FOODBORNE or FOODCONTROL or FOODS or FOODSERVICE or OBESIDAD or OBESIDADE or OBESITY or SOBREPESO or OVERWEIGHT or DESNUTRICAO or UNDERNUTRITION or ANTROPOMETRIA or ANTHROPOMETRIC or ANTHROPOMETRY or AMAMENTACAO or AMAMENTADAS or AMAMENTADOS or AMAMENTANDO or AMAMENTAR or AMAMENTARAM or AMAMENTOU or BREASTFED or BREASTFEED or BREASTFEEDING”.

The search returned 904 publications. After reading the titles and abstracts, we excluded 395 publications deemed not suitable to the Food and Nutrition sphere, resulting in the inclusion of 509 articles.

These publications contained information on year of publication, themes and, key words; type of article (original article; narrative review; systematic review; editorial; opinion; review; letter); type of study (quantitative, qualitative or quali -quantitative); study group (neonates, infants, schoolchildren, adolescents, adult women, adult men, adults of both sexes, elderly, pregnant women, breastfeeding, puerperal and maternal-infant); minority groups (native, quilombolas, rural population settlements and refugees); probabilistic sample (yes or no) and country of the study.

We grouped the publications were grouped into ten themes: Nutritional Status Assessment (A), Food Consumption (B), Food and Nutrition Policies and Programmes (C), Breastfeeding and Complementary Feeding (D), Behavioural Nutrition (E), Nutritional Education (F), Nutritional Care of population groups (G), Nutritionist’s Profession (H), Food Hygiene (I) and Food Technology (J). We discussed the articles according to their historical, social and cultural contexts, compared with the international literature, and presented them in tables and graphs. Given the magnitude and diversity of the area, we chose to focus the discussion of the results to the themes A, B, C and D that concentrated the largest number of publications.

In order to conduct a brief dialogue between the scientific production of C&SC in the area of Food and Nutrition and the scientific literature in the international scenario, we carried out a bibliographic search using PubMed, the U.S. database of the National Library of Medicine, U.S. National Institutes of Health. This search had as a time frame the period from 1996 up to the end of 2019 using specific the key words to select the four most frequent themes already specified above (A, B, C and D).

Results

Bibliometric characteristics of articles in the Food and Nutrition area

Food and Nutrition articles represent 11.5% of the 4414 C&SC publications in the period. The topics most addressed in the journal were Nutritional Status Assessment (27.9%), Food Consumption (21.8%), Food and Nutrition Policies and Programmes (20.6%), Breastfeeding and Complementary Feeding (6.9%). Within these themes, the main groups of publications addressed assessment of nutritional status and its determinants (26.7%), food consumption or food groups (16.1%) and food security and nutrition (14.5%) (Table 1).

Table 1
Frequency of articles published in the area of Food and Nutrition in the Journal Ciência & Saúde Coletiva by themes, 1996-2019.

Three quarters of the publications, (75.6%) are original items and 81.6% of these are quantitative. Among the quantitative studies, 18.8% used probabilistic samples. The articles present a balanced distribution of population groups, 28.5% focused on adults and 21.8% on children, both infants to schoolchildren. Few publications targeted minority groups (5.1%) and 95.1% were conducted in Brazil (Table 2).

Table 2
General bibliometric characteristics on Food and Nutrition published in the Journal Ciência & Saúde Coletiva, 1996-2019.

The first publication in the C&SC on Food and Nutrition took place in 2002, six years after the creation of the journal. Subsequently, publications appeared on average 3.5 articles/year until 2009. Since 2010, the number of publications increased remarkably, maintaining an average of 47.7 articles per year until 2019. Until 2006, the journal appeared quarterly, from 2007 to 2010 bimonthly and in 2011 became a monthly journal. There was on average a threefold increase in the frequency C&SC per year whereas the number of publications on Food and Nutrition were 13 times higher over the same period. The highest number of publications occurred in 2014 (n = 61) and 2019 (n = 63) (Figure 1).

Discussion

The articles published on the assessment of nutritional status

We divided the publications on assessment of nutritional status into two groups: assessment of nutritional status and its determinants (95.8%) and methods of nutritional assessment (4.2%) (Table 1).

Studies on nutritional assessment methods, sought to evaluate, concisely, the validity and accuracy of different methods in the nutritional assessment of different population groups. Regarding the assessment of nutritional status and its determinants, publications in C&SC began in 2007 and represented 26.7% (n = 136) of all of articles on Food and Nutrition (Table 1). This number is quite substantial and contributed, together with other journals, to the nutritional diagnosis of the Brazilian population.

Studies on this theme are particularly important for nutritional surveillance and as guidance to health professionals and managers. Nutritional Surveillance orients modifications of the Food and Nutrition agenda of the Unified Health System (SUS). These practices and adjustments become the basis of official guidelines to promote adequate and healthy foods. Ten steps to a healthy diet1111 Brasil. Ministério da Saúde (MS). Dez passos para uma alimentação saudável: guia alimentar para crianças menores de dois anos. Brasília: MS; 2013.; New food guide for the Brazilian population1212 Brasil. Ministério da Saúde (MS). Guia alimentar para a população brasileira. Brasília: MS; 2014.; and the Food guide for children under 2 years1313 Brasil. Ministério da Saúde (MS). Guia alimentar para crianças brasileiras menores de 2 anos. Brasília: MS; 2019., are straightforward examples of practical uses of publications on Food and Nutrition.

Research on this theme focused mainly on obesity and/or excess weight, representing 47% of the articles. On the other hand, articles focused on the study of protein-caloric malnutrition and low weight totalled only 10%. The profile of these publications reflects the nutritional transition in Brazil, with a decline in the prevalence of underweight and increased obesity across regions, regardless of gender, age and socioeconomic factors55 Souza NP, Lira PIC, Fontbonne A, Pinto FCL, Cesse EÂP. A (des)nutrição e o novo padrão epidemiológico em um contexto de desenvolvimento e desigualdades. Cien Saude Colet 2017; 22(7):2257-2266.,88 Escoda MSQ. Para a crítica da transição nutricional. Cien Saude Colet 2002; 7(2):219-226.,1414 Batista Filho M, Souza AI, Miglioli TC, Santos MC. Anemia e obesidade: um paradoxo da transição nutricional brasileira. Cad Saúde Pública 2008; 24(Supl. 2):s247-s257.. According to data from the National Health Survey, 56.9% of the Brazilian adult population were overweight in 2013, and 2.5% for the same group had a weight deficit1515 Instituto Brasileiro de Geografia e Estatística (IBGE). Pesquisa nacional de saúde, 2013:ciclos de vida: Brasil e grandes regiões. Rio de Janeiro: IBGE; 2015.. Around the world, the prevalence of obesity has doubled in 35 years and people with overweight account for a third of the world’s population1616 Global Burden of Disease Collaborative Network. Global Burden of Disease Study 2015(GBD 2015) Obesity and Overweight Prevalence 1980-2015. Seattle: IHME; 2017..

The publications beheld obesity from different perspectives. Some explored the social and cultural aspects, substantiating how inequalities influence access to means of prevention and tackling obesity, especially among women. Others gave an overview of the prevalence of obesity in Brazil, with population-based data and often observing the variation of the disease over time and, among different population groups. Additionally, a variety of articles explored factors potentially associated with overweight, mainly lifestyle and socioeconomic variables, and birth weight, waterborne induced endocrine conditions and intergenerational transmission.

The search in PubMed using the key word nutritional status resulted in 5,686 articles, showing to be most frequent theme in the international literature, in as much as in the C&SC. The search for obesity and malnutrition generated 124,028 and 41,436 results, respectively. Thus, the major interest on studying specifically obesity as a subject and not as part of malnutrition seems to be an international trend over the last 25 years.

It is noteworthy that micronutrient deficiencies, especially iron deficiency anaemia, in children and women of childbearing age, is still a cause for concern in Brazil1414 Batista Filho M, Souza AI, Miglioli TC, Santos MC. Anemia e obesidade: um paradoxo da transição nutricional brasileira. Cad Saúde Pública 2008; 24(Supl. 2):s247-s257.. It is estimated that more than 40% of Brazilian children have iron deficiency anaemia, reaching a prevalence greater than 70% among under two years’ old, a serious public health problem1717 Justino LC. Prevalência de anemia em crianças nos últimos 10 anos no Brasil [monografia]. Cuiabá: Universidade Federal de Mato Grosso; 2017.. Only 6% of the articles on assessment of nutritional status and its determinants focused on micronutrient deficiencies. Half of them were studies on children and/or adolescents and only one included pregnant women. This may indicate that the theme deserves greater attention from C&SC.

Approximately one third of the studies published on the assessment of nutritional status did not have as its centre a specific nutritional problem, but rather described multiple results and mainly related to anthropometric measurements. The studied population groups were chiefly patients with diseases (dementia, chronic kidney disease, leprosy, cystic fibrosis and breast cancer), children, adolescents, women and the elderly. Some studies aimed at minority groups, such as quilombolas, natives, beneficiaries of the family basket and rural populations.

Articles published on food consumption

Publications on food consumption first appeared in 2003 and during 16 years the C&SC published 16 articles on nutrient and micronutrient intake, 82 on food consumption and food groups and 3 on ultra-processed foods.

The articles that evaluated the intake of nutrients and micronutrients were limited to specific population groups. In children, the studies evaluated the association between linear growth and iron and vitamin A intake, improved nutritional status of pre-schoolers supplemented with micronutrients and the impact of vitamin A supplementation on breast milk. As for the adolescents, they assessed the association between excess body weight and food consumption and adequacy of nutrients in public schools. They drew attention to a risk of iron and calcium deficiency. In adults, they focused on the evaluation of high-fat diets and risk of cardiovascular diseases, and in interventions using nutritional education and physical activity.

The articles on food consumption and food groups targeted the evaluation of eating habits, food availability, alcohol consumption, healthy eating and diet quality, marketing of food products and street foods in specific population groups (pregnant women, elderly, adolescents, rural population, natives, labourers and children). There has been an expressive growth in the number of publications of these themes in recent decades. Minayo and Gualhano1818 Minayo MCS, Gualhano L. Qualidade da produção e do consumo de alimentos: um dos maiores desafios da saúde pública contemporânea. Cien Saude Colet 2015; 20(8):1. pointed to the quality of food production and consumption as the greatest challenges of contemporary public health.

When food intake was evaluated in relation to social, demographic and economic variables, the analysis of data from the National Demography and Health Survey (PNDS), children of mothers with higher educational level, aged 2 to 5 years, showed higher consumption of healthy diet1919 Alves MN, Muniz LC, Vieira MFA. Consumo alimentar entre crianças brasileiras de dois a cinco anos de idade: Pesquisa Nacional de Demografia e Saúde (PNDS), 2006. Cien Saude Colet 2013; 18(11):3369-3377.. The same survey showed a direct relationship between the consumption of soft drinks and social and economic status among adolescents. In the same group, the consumption of beans in the last large meal (62.6%) featured across all socioeconomic groups2020 Levy RB, Castro IRR, Cardoso LO, Tavares LF, Sardinha LMV, Gomes FS, Costa AWN. Consumo e comportamento alimentar entre adolescentes brasileiros: Pesquisa Nacional de Saúde do Escolar (PeNSE), 2009. Cien Saude Colet 2010; 15(Supl. 2):3085-3097.. Some authors singled out beans as a positive marker of a healthy Brazilian diet. Consumed with rice, this traditional combination is associated with healthy habits and less overweight. Among low-income adults, individuals have a higher intake of carbohydrates as opposed to higher lipid intake among those with high income2121 Enes CC, Silva MV. Disponibilidade de energia e nutrientes nos domicílios: o contraste entre as regiões Norte e Sul do Brasil. Cien Saude Colet 2009; 14(4):1267-1276.. Studies have observed greater difficulty in adopting a healthy diet among the elderly, causing deficiencies in nutrient intake2222 Gadenz SD, Benvegnú LA. Hábitos alimentares na prevenção de doenças cardiovasculares e fatores associados em idosos hipertensos. Cien Saude Colet 2013; 18(12):3523-3533.. In vulnerable groups, such as pregnant, nursing mothers, pregnant and obese women, there is a clear need to review strategies to stimulate adequate diets2323 Baião MR, Deslandes SF. Práticas alimentares na gravidez: um estudo com gestantes e puérperas de um complexo de favelas do Rio de Janeiro (RJ, Brasil). Cien Saude Colet 2010; 15(Supl. 2):3199-3206., to have a broader understanding of historical, social and cultural aspects that hamper food choices2424 Marques ES, Cotta RMM, Botelho MIV, Franceschini S do CC, Araújo RMA. Representações sociais sobre a alimentação da nutriz. Cien Saude Colet 2011; 16(10):4267-4274., and the need to conduct studies with a more comprehensive approach2525 Ferreira VA, Magalhães R. Práticas alimentares cotidianas de mulheres obesas moradoras da Favela da Rocinha (Rio de Janeiro, RJ, Brasil). Cien Saude Colet 2011; 16(6):2983-2991..

Regarding the 755 articles published in PubMed since mid-1990s, they have explored the theme of micronutrients, the context of their antioxidant and protective functions and impact on chronic-degenerative diseases and other diseases. From 2000 onwards, other topics emerged, such as micronutrients and genomic integrity, use of micronutrients associated with polyunsaturated fatty acids and probiotics, as well as research on micronutrients supplementation for the elderly, children, pregnant and menopausal women. In 2010, other topics appeared such as genomic nutrition and growth, therapeutic prevention and immunity, prevention of congenital anomalies, DNA repair and infertility. Between 2011/2012, there was an increase in the volume of systematic reviews. They focussed on the use of supplementation for various age groups and pathologies, as well as flour fortification, epigenetic programming, oxidative stress, brain function and neurodevelopment, metabolic interactions between micronutrients and the use of applications to guide intake.

Over the last 25 years, international publications on food consumption and food groups have also increased. In the 1990s, many studies included estimating daily food consumption of several age groups and countries, discussing income and, the role of eating habits and types of food in degenerative diseases, particularly cancer. Since 1996, there were studies on food additives, pesticides, flavonoids, fibres and body image in schoolchildren. At the end of this decade, there was a shift to evaluate economic growth and income in relation to food consumption in different population groups. Since 2003, studies highlighted fast food, diet quality, nutritional transition, maternal education and the economic and social impacts on food consumption. In the following years, discussions emerged on the association between watching television and overweight in children and evaluation of the pattern of food consumption.

There was a rise in publications on consumption of sugar, fast food, junk food, snacks on school meals and consumption patterns associated with mortality from cardiovascular diseases and cancer. Since 2010, studies on consumption in low-income populations, social inequalities and the Food Basket Programme (PBF) in Brazil stood out2626 Silvani J, Buss C, Pena GG, Recchi AF, Wendland EM. Consumo alimentar de usuários do Sistema Único de Saúde segundo o tipo de assistência e participação no Bolsa Família. Cien Saude Colet 2018; 23(8):2599-2608..

Between 2000 and 2010, many publications have turned the discussions to “guidelines”, lifestyle, consumption of fruits and vegetables, consumption of whole grains, obesogenic foods and food allergies. Since 2015, debates about food intolerances and impulsive eating, use of smartphone to aid eating behaviour, identification of emotions in consumption, organic food and sustainability, genotype and multifaceted analysis associated with consumption have grown. In 2019, with the democratic crisis, a review of publications analysed the relationship between socioeconomic status and food consumption in large national surveys, underscoring social inequalities and consumption patterns in Brazil2727 Canuto R, Fanton M, Lira PIC. Iniquidades sociais no consumo alimentar no Brasil: uma revisão crítica dos inquéritos nacionais. Cien Saude Colet 2019; 24(9):3193-3212..

Since 2011, in the wider international context, publications on ultra-processed foods caught up2828 Louzada MLC, Martins APB, Canella DS, Baraldi LG, Levy RB, Claro RM, Moubarac J-C, Cannon G, Monteiro CA. Ultra-processed foods and the nutritional dietary profile in Brazil. Rev Saúde Pública 2015; 49:38.,2929 Oliveira MSS, Silva-Amparo L. Food-based dietary guidelines: a comparative analysis between the Dietary Guidelines for the Brazilian Population 2006 and 2014. Public Health Nutr 2018; 21(1):210-217.. These publications contemplated the impact of the consumption of these foods on the quality of the diet, the repercussions on chronic diseases, and on specific age groups (the most vulnerable, children and adolescents). The C&SC published three articles on this theme, focusing on the evaluation of the early introduction of these foods to children under 2 years of age, consumption of sugary drinks in pre-schoolers and increased consumption of these foods in families with higher purchasing power.

Articles on Food and Nutrition Policies and Programmes

We divided the articles on Food and Nutrition Policies and Programmes (n = 105) into 3 major groups: Food Security and Nutrition, School Feeding and Worker’s Health, representing 70.5%, 24.8% and 4.8% of the production respectively (Table 1).

FSN publications started in 2005 and major growth in the number of publications occurred between 2014 and 2017. In the discussion between the articles evaluated in C&SC (n = 74) and those published in PubMed (n = 404), we noted that the international publications also evaluated the association of FSN with diseases such as asthma, HIV, breastfeeding, social capital, climate change, and nutritional supplementation among others.

Throughout the 20th century, several government programs targeted to combating hunger. The FSN concept emerged in 1985 with the elaboration of the proposal for a National Policy3030 Burlandy L. A construção da política de segurança alimentar e nutricional no Brasil: estratégias e desafios para a promoção da intersetorialidade no âmbito federal de governo. Cien Saude Colet 2009; 14(3):851-860.. In 2006, the publication of the FSN Organic Law (LOSAN) was published that created the National FSN System33 Recine E, Vasconcellos AB. Políticas nacionais e o campo da Alimentação e Nutrição em Saúde Coletiva: cenário atual. Cien Saude Colet 2011;16(1):73-79.,44 Alves KPS, Jaime PC. A Política Nacional de alimentação e Nutrição e seu diálogo com a Política Nacional de Segurança alimentar e Nutricional. Cien Saude Colet 2014; 19(11):4331-4340.,66 Jaime PC, Delmuè DCC, Campello T, Silva DO, Santos LMP. Um olhar sobre a agenda de alimentação e nutrição nos trinta anos do Sistema Único de Saúde. Cien Saude Colet 2018; 23(6):1829-1836.,77 Vasconcelos FAG, Machado ML, Medeiros MAT de, Neves JA, Recine E, Pasquim EM. Public policies of food and nutrition in Brazil: From Lula to Temer. Rev Nutr 2019; 32:e180161.,3030 Burlandy L. A construção da política de segurança alimentar e nutricional no Brasil: estratégias e desafios para a promoção da intersetorialidade no âmbito federal de governo. Cien Saude Colet 2009; 14(3):851-860..

In 2005, Stoppelli and Magalhães3131 Stoppelli IMBS, Magalhães CP. Saúde e segurança alimentar: a questão dos agrotóxicos. Cien Saude Colet 2005; 10(Supl.):91-100. published the first study aimed to evaluate the preventive actions to minimize the effects of pesticides, such as greater supervision in the commercialization and use of chemicals, simplification of labels on packaging and greater adequacy of protective equipment. In spite of a substantial increase in the use of pesticides in recent decades in Brazil, this subject appeared sparsely in C&SC. The use of pesticides increase further in 2019, with the approval of more than 52 pesticides by the current government. This was a setback in regulating and limiting pesticide use and detrimental to the health and nutrition of the Brazilian population. Brasil took the world’s lead in the use of pesticides3232 Faria NMX, Fassa AG, Facchini LA. Intoxicação por agrotóxicos no Brasil: os sistemas oficiais de informação e desafios para realização de estudos epidemiológicos. Cien Saude Colet 2007; 12(1):25-38..

The theme of Food Security and Nutrition Policies across sectors also appeared in the C&SC. There are still major obstacles to overcome on this issue. Progress is needed to obtain coordinated and articulated actions that use the existing resources in each sector more efficiently, directing them to actions that comply with a scale of priorities established together to achieve an effective Health and Nutrition33 Recine E, Vasconcellos AB. Políticas nacionais e o campo da Alimentação e Nutrição em Saúde Coletiva: cenário atual. Cien Saude Colet 2011;16(1):73-79.,44 Alves KPS, Jaime PC.

Cien Saude Colet 2009; 14(3):851-860..

The impact of income transfer programs, particularly the Family Basket, on Food and Nutrition were also among the published articles. Sperandio et al.3333 Sperandio N, Rodrigues CT, Franceschini SCC, Priore SE. Impact of the Bolsa Família Program on energy, macronutrient, and micronutrient intakes: Study of the Northeast and Southeast. Rev Nutr 2016; 29(6):833-844. observed that the beneficiaries of the PBF in the Northeast and Southeast regions consumed less processed and ultra-processed foods. However, the consumption of fresh or minimally processed foods was higher in the Northeast region than in the Southeast3333 Sperandio N, Rodrigues CT, Franceschini SCC, Priore SE. Impact of the Bolsa Família Program on energy, macronutrient, and micronutrient intakes: Study of the Northeast and Southeast. Rev Nutr 2016; 29(6):833-844.. A cross-sectional population-based study observed food insecurity in 81.6% of the recipient families of the Family Basket. The authors emphasized the relevant role of conditional transfer of income and its interplay in the social protection of the population3434 Monteiro F, Schmidt ST, Costa IB, Almeida CCB, Matuda NS. Bolsa Família: insegurança alimentar e nutricional de crianças menores de cinco anos. Cien Saude Colet 2014; 19(5):1347-1358..

Other articles underscored the challenge of linking conditional income transfer programs to other programs that promote access to social rights (health services, education, professional training, income and employment generation, sanitation, drinking water and housing). The across sector policies, seeking to combat food insecurity and, socioeconomic inequalities might guarantee social rights to the most excluded3434 Monteiro F, Schmidt ST, Costa IB, Almeida CCB, Matuda NS. Bolsa Família: insegurança alimentar e nutricional de crianças menores de cinco anos. Cien Saude Colet 2014; 19(5):1347-1358.,3535 Santos LMP, Pasquim EM, Santos SMC. Programas de transferência de renda no Brasil: um estudo multidimensional da implementação do Bolsa Escola, Bolsa Alimentação e Cartão Alimentação. Cien Saude Colet 2011; 16(3):1821-1834..

In relation to Food Security and Nutrition, the articles uncovered a high prevalence of food and nutritional insecurity among minority groups, quilombolas, natives, farmers, settlers, among others. These results suggest that the scope of Nutrition and Food Security must include the right, the access to resources, the means to produce safe and healthy foods thus allowing the consumption of a diet suited to the habits and practices of the region3636 Almeida JA, Santos AS, Nascimento MAO, Oliveira JVC, Silva DG, Mendes-Netto RS. Fatores associados ao risco de insegurança alimentar e nutricional em famílias de assentamentos rurais. Cien Saude Colet 2017; 22(2):479-488..

Family farming considered extremely relevant for Nutrition and Food Security policies, local development, the reduction of rural exodus and the commercialization of the vast majority of its production to the local and regional markets weighed low among the publications3737 Machado PMO, Schmitz BAS, González-Chica DA, Corso ACT, Vasconcelos FAG, Gabriel CG. Compra de alimentos da agricultura familiar pelo Programa Nacional de Alimentação Escolar (PNAE): estudo transversal com o universo de municípios brasileiros. Cien Saude Colet 2018; 23(12):4153-4164..

Regarding School Feeding, the first publication in C&SC occurred in 2010. There were 26 articles constituting 5% of the publications on Food and Nutrition. School feeding is a primary factor to promote healthy eating practices aimed at Nutrition and Food Security.

The journal integrates this theme in parallel with the progress of the National School Feeding Programme (NSFP/PNAE), Law No. 11,947 of June 16, 2009 and resolution No. 26, of June 17, 2013, part of the National Fund for Development and Education. The NSFP, in addition to fostering the development of eating habits, nurtures trade, local food production and the commercialization of food from family farming, hence a fundamental strategy to ensure Nutrition and Food Security and the attainment of the human right to adequate food3838 Siqueira RL, Cotta RMM, Ribeiro RCL, Sperandio N, Priore SE. Análise da incorporação da perspectiva do direito humano à alimentação adequada no desenho institucional do programa nacional de alimentação escolar. Cien Saude Colet 2014; 19(1):301-310..

In Brazil, this programme envisioned universal coverage of government schools throughout the country and had a significant social impact. In 2015, it reached 41.5 million students. International strategies involve projects located in certain schools, municipalities and regions3939 Cesar JT, Valentim EA, Almeida CCB, Schieferdecker MEM, Schmidt ST. Alimentação Escolar no Brasil e Estados Unidos: uma revisão integrativa. Cien Saude Colet 2018; 23(3):991-1007.,4040 Fundo Nacional de Desenvolvimento da Educação (FNDE). Dados Físicos e Financeiros do PNAE [Internet]. Disponível em: https://www.fnde.gov.br/index.php/programas/pnae/pnae-consultas/pnae-dados-fisicos-e-financeiros-do-pnae
https://www.fnde.gov.br/index.php/progra...
.

The articles published by the C&SC highlighted the importance of NSFP as a policy that supports child development and the improvement of students’ cognitive abilities through adequate nutrition. In addition, the analysis associated the NSFP in Brasil with organic food, family farming, nutritional recommendations, and food waste, Nutrition and Food Security, food consumption, nutritional status and eating habits.

Relating the articles that evaluated school feeding in the C&SC and those found in PubMed (n = 132), 69.5% of international publications come from emerging countries with developing economies and only 22.8% come from Europe or North America4141 Appleby LJ, Tadesse G, Wuletawu Y, Dejene NG, Grimes JET, French MD, Teklu A, Moreda B, Negussu N, Kebede B, Yard E, Gardiner I, Drake LJ. Integrated delivery of school health interventions through the school platform: Investing for the future. PLoS Negl Trop Dis 2019; 13(1):e0006449.,4242 Gelli A, Daryanani R. Are School Feeding Programs in Low-Income Settings Sustainable? Insights on the Costs of School Feeding Compared with Investments in Primary Education. Food Nutr Bull 2013; 34(3):310-317.. Brazil had the highest number of publications on this theme in South America, totalling 20 manuscripts.

Articles published on breastfeeding and complementary feeding

Publications on breastfeeding began in 2008, representing 5.5% of the articles (n = 28) in the Food and nutrition area (Table 1). They were regularly frequent and showed a pike between 2010 and 2018. During this period, several strategies to advocate breastfeeding were adopted including the creation of the Brazilian Breastfeeding Network4343 Passanha A, Benicio MHD, Venancio SI, Reis MCG. Implantação da Rede Amamenta Brasil e prevalência de aleitamento materno exclusivo. Rev Saúde Pública 2013; 47(6):1141-1148., implementation of the Breastfeeding and Feed Brazil Strategy and the establishment of the National Policy for Integral Child Health Care (2015)4444 Brasil. Ministério da Saúde (MS). Bases para a discussão da Política Nacional de Promoção, Proteção e Apoio ao Aleitamento Materno. Brasília: MS; 2017..

The most prevalent subjects were weaning, and determinants associated with breastfeeding (32.1%), followed by primary health care, promotion, protection and support for breastfeeding (25%). Other topics addressed the impact of breastfeeding on new-born’s health, sucking habits, cross-feeding, human milk substitutes, breastfeeding versus complementary feeding, child-friendly hospital initiative, adolescence and breastfeeding, and low birth weight prematurity and breastfeeding.

The search on breastfeeding in PubMed with the descriptor gathered 36,898 results. The main themes of the publications discussed promotion, protection and support to breastfeeding; child growth and development; prematurity; weaning and associated factors; maternal health; relationship between breastfeeding and development of chronic non-communicable diseases; nutritional composition of human milk.

From 2006 the prevalence of exclusive breastfeeding in children, under six months of age and of breastfeeding in children under 24 months of age was stable. This was in fact a warning sign calling for a potential review and strengthening of policies and programs to promote, protect and support breastfeeding, and breastfeeding indicators resume the upward trend4545 Boccolini CS, Boccolini PDMM, Monteiro FR, Venâncio SI, Giugliani ERJ. Breastfeeding indicators trends in Brazil for three decades. Rev Saúde Pública 2017; 51:108..

With regard to infant’s complementary feeding, publications began in 2010 with 1.4% (n = 7) of the articles on Food and Nutrition (Table 1). The most prevalent themes were the introduction of nutritious food and healthy eating, and the relationship between breastfeeding and complementary feeding. The search for “complementary feeding” in PubMed resulted in 1,517 publications addressing healthy eating, breastfeeding versus complementary feeding and food introduction practices.

The first publication of the Food Guide for Brazilian Children under 2 years old appeared in 2002. A revised version appeared in 2010 when publications in the C&SC began. In 2019, the year with the highest number of publications, the new Food Guide for Brazilian children under 2 years old was launched1313 Brasil. Ministério da Saúde (MS). Guia alimentar para crianças brasileiras menores de 2 anos. Brasília: MS; 2019..

Final considerations

From this review, it was possible to have a wider portrayal and the framework within which Food and Nutrition publications evolved in the C&SC over its 25 years of existence. A comprehensive range of topics substantiated a production with commitment and relevance to development and public policy agendas.

In the first six years of existence, the SCHJ did not focus Food and Nutrition publications. This field gained space in the journal from 2002, underscoring works on nutritional assessment, food consumption and Food and Nutrition policies and programs. The articles, mostly original and quantitative, studying diverse population groups, constitute an important repository of data and knowledge for health professionals and managers.

The main limitation of this article was the evaluation of articles published in PubMed, given that in certain topics, such as nutritional assessment, the quantity of articles was quite expressive, hindering the delimitation of the international panorama on the aforementioned issue. We made an effort to evaluate international articles from other topics, such as food security and food consumption.

It is noteworthy that due to the size limit of this article we chose to centralize the analysis and discussion in the four most frequent themes. As seen in Table 1, given the editorial scope of C&SC, we added publications on other domains deemed relevant to Food and Nutrition over the 25-year history of the journal.

The most frequent theme was the assessment of nutritional status, which is of paramount importance to define the agenda of the Unified Health System (SUS) on Food and Nutrition. There was a tendency to separate obesity from the general theme of malnutrition, reflecting the upward trend in the prevalence of obesity in Brazil and worldwide. The publications on the theme of food consumption followed the international trend in the literature focusing on the quality of the diet, its repercussions on chronic diseases, and demographic, socioeconomic, cultural and behavioural aspects in specific population groups. Among the publications on programs and policies, Nutrition and Food Security stood out, including the use of pesticides, links across social and economic sectors, the impact of income transfer programs and associated determinants.

C&SC could have explored further other topics like micronutrient deficiency, family farming, the National School Feeding programme (PNAE), diagnoses and critical analysis of the recent disruptions in the implementation of the National Nutrition and Food Security policies and their multi sector interfaces with social policies to prevent and fight hunger. In addition, publications that promote and popularize the Food Guide for the Brazilian population can be a powerful tool to increase the systemic dissemination of this information.
