Article Synopsis
- - Understanding the origins of Eating in the Absence of Hunger (EAH) is important for addressing weight gain in childhood, and this study focused on toddlers to examine the links between EAH and parental feeding practices, especially instrumental feeding.
- - The study involved 66 parents and toddlers, assessing EAH through a lab paradigm, while parents reported on feeding practices, children's temperament, and food accessibility, with the children's height and weight measured to calculate BMI.
- - Findings revealed that toddlers' EAH wasn't influenced by instrumental feeding or their temperament, but there was a positive correlation with parental restrictions for health reasons, particularly when food was more accessible, indicating that controlling food access may help manage EAH in early childhood.

Background: Childhood obesity is a crucial public health issue. Early childhood is a critical time to foster the establishment of healthy eating behaviours and growth, which are partly shaped by parental feeding practices. To inform French parents of the recently updated national complementary feeding guidelines for 0-3 years (in terms of nutrition and responsive feeding as a mean to encourage infant appetite control skills and promote healthy growth), an official printed brochure was developed and nationally disseminated in 2021 by the French public health agency, Santé publique France.

With the upcoming release of the official brochure containing the new child feeding recommendations in France, this study aims to: (1) assess professionals' practices and perceptions regarding their communication with parents on child feeding and (2) evaluate their perception of the draft of the new brochure.
Methods: A 15-page draft brochure (without pictures) containing updated child feeding recommendations for children 0-3 years old was developed by Santé publique France (the French public health agency).
