Article Synopsis
- - Chronic pain is a significant issue for aging populations, and in Berlin, a study found that 92% of older adults (65+) with care needs utilize nonpharmacological interventions (NPIs) for pain management, favoring active approaches over passive ones.
- - The study, which included 250 participants, highlighted that 85.6% used active NPIs, especially active movement, with distraction and physiotherapy being the most common methods employed.
- - Findings revealed a social gradient in NPI usage; those with higher education were three times more likely to use physiotherapy compared to those with lower education, who preferred thermotherapy/compresses instead.
Background: As evidence grows about negative health impacts of ultra-processed foods (UPFs), nutrient-centred advice is contested, and food-based dietary guidelines are increasingly utilised. Previous analyses of dietary guidelines evaluated their potential impact on health and sustainability, but little research has been conducted to examine how the concept of UPFs is reflected in dietary advice for consumers. This paper systematically analyses whether and how UPFs are represented in dietary guidelines internationally.
