Somatotypes is a description of human anatomy, which provides a quantitative overview of physics as an integral whole. Normally it was presented in a three-number rating, in which each number represents a somatotype variable. The first number represents the component of endomorphy (relative fatness), the second number represents the component of mesomorphy (muscularity) and the last number represents the component of ectomorphy (relative linearity). Multiple investigations have shown the association between somatotype with nutrition and health status. This cross-sectional study on the somatotype component, dietary intake and health status have been conducted among ninety-two female UMT students. Somatotype was calculated using the Carter and Health method. Dietary consumption was assessed using the 24-hour dietary recall technique. While blood pressure was assessed by using standard procedure. Median somatotype score of respondents was (6.39, 4.27, 1.10) indicated that respondents were in mesomorphic endomorph category. By further classifying them into dominant somatotype categories, 74% of respondents were endomorph dominant, 14% mesomorph dominant and 12% ectomorph dominant. BMI of the respondent under normal category was 47.8%, followed by obese (21.7%), overweight (18.5%) and underweight (12%). Moreover, the energy intake of respondents was 1533 kcal/day with the median percentage of total energy contributed by macronutrients was 50.26% derived from carbohydrate, 33.46% from fat and 16.71% from protein. The highest fulfilments of micronutrients were vitamin A (89.44%), but vitamin C (29.74%), calcium (42.56%) and iron (37.95%) did not exceed 50% of RNI. However, sodium intake exceeded RNI by 123.36%. Furthermore, the majority of female students have normal blood pressure with (105.53±9.97/74.65±8.55) mm Hg. The relationship between endomorphy component with systolic blood pressure was (r = 0.253, p = 0.015) and ectomorphy component with systolic blood pressure was (- 0.259, p = 0.013). However, there were no relationships between somatotype components and nutrient intake found in this study.

(1) Background: One of the most main dietary assessments is through a posteriori application. Although extensive research has incorporated dietary assessment of a population through a posteriori application, this study is the first to examine the Malaysian population and use an a posteriori method and principal component analysis (PCA) to assess the dietary patterns of the Malaysian population. The correlation between all dietary patterns derived via PCA and selected nutrient intake were determined in this sample of study; (2) Methods: A total of 3063 respondents (18 to 59 years old) covering Peninsular Malaysia, Sabah, and Sarawak, participated in this study. PCA was applied on the food frequency questionnaire collected from the respondents, and descriptive statistics and PCA were performed using SPSS version 21; (3) Results: Six patterns were identified: "traditional", " prudent", " modern", "western", "Chinese", and "combination" diets. All together, these six patterns were able to explain 45.9% of the total variability. Few components derived from the factor loadings showed positive association with several nutrient markers. The traditional dietary pattern showed a moderate, positive correlation with total protein and total sugar intake, there was a significant moderate correlation between the prudent dietary pattern and dietary fibre, and there was a moderate positive association between the Chinese dietary pattern and total energy; and (4) Conclusions: The exploration of the PCA approach above may provide justification for assessment of dietary patterns rather than reliance on single nutrients or foods to identify potential connections to overall nutritional wellbeing as well as to explore the diet–disease relationship. However, study of pattern analysis must be conducted among the Malaysian population to produce validity and reproducibility for this dietary approach in light of the numerous methodological issues that arise when performing PCA.

Introduction: Homeless children are prone to inadequate energy and nutrient intake which may highly influence their cognitive performance. However, few studies have been done in assessing diet adequacy and cognitive performance among homeless children in Malaysia. Materials and Methods: This cross-sectional study aims to assess the dietary adequacy and cognitive performance of 120 homeless children age 7-12 years living in Klang Valley. The dietary adequacy of these homeless children was assessed through two days of 24 hours of dietary recall. Dietary adequacy achievement was determined by fulfilling at least 50% of Recommended Nutrients Intake (RNI). Raven’s Coloured Progressive Matrices (RCPM) test was used to assess their cognitive performance. Results: The homeless children had an adequate intake of energy, iron, zinc, and vitamin B12. Seventy percent of homeless children had a poor cognitive performance. This study shows that there was no association between energy, iron, and vitamin B12 adequacy with cognitive performance, whereas there was a significant (p=0.028) association between zinc adequacy and children’s cognitive performance. Conclusion: These findings provide solid evidence-based for dietary adequacy and cognitive performance of the homeless children in Klang Valley. It is clear from the findings that both dietary intake and cognitive of these children require improvement for a better quality of life in the future. This study suggests that dietary adequacy does not relatively reflect the cognitive performance of these homeless children in Malaysia.

Introduction: Forest clearing for agriculture plantations and local community settlements may triggerfood insecurity, which causes poor development, predominantly in Orang Asli children. This cross-sectionalstudy was conducted to determine the relationships between food security and anthropometric and cognitivefunction among Orang Asli children in Temerloh, Pahang. Materials and methods: A total of one hundred andsixty-seven children (ages 7 to 11) from five selected Orang Asli villages (Kampung Sungai Enggang, KampungPenderas, Kampung Pasu, Kampung Lubok Wong, and Kampung Pian) were involved in this study. The foodsecurity index was assessed using the Radimer/Cornell Hunger and Food Insecurity Instrument.Anthropometric indices were based on height-for-age and BMI-for-age Z-scores, while cognitive performancewas tested using Raven’s Coloured Progressive Matrices (R-CPM). Results: A majority (91.6%) of therespondents reported some kind of food insecurity (12.6% household food insecure, 74.2% individual foodinsecure, and 4.8% child hunger). Rates of stunting, thinness, and overweight/obesity were 25.8%, 16.2%,and 18.0%, respectively. A majority (46.1%) of the children had average cognitive scores, followed by belowaverage (38.3%) and above average (15.6%), respectively. Height-for-age was significantly associated withcognitive function (p=0.008). Among sociodemographic factors, household size (p=0.007) and householdincome (p

Foodborne diseases, including food poisoning, are becoming a concern as the increasing prevalence of food poisoning and incidents worldwide. This study reviewed previous knowledge, attitudes and practices (KAP) studies on food safety and the prevention of food poisoning in Malaysia. This study also reviewed the behavioural evidence, similarities and differences of the KAP food safety and food poisoning prevention studies in Malaysia and provided an overview of the relationship between KAP level and the socio-demographic profile of the respondents. Sixteen studies covered from 2015 to 2020 (March 2020) were selected. Research was identified through Scopus and Web of Science as main databases and manual searching in Science Direct, PubMed and Springer-Link as the electronic database with Google Scholar as search engines. The journal (research articles) within last five years from 2015 to March 2020, the published articles are easily accessible for researchers, open access with full text, the language was limited to English, and research studies that were done in Malaysia. Knowledge was the most influential factor in the prevention of food poisoning. Ten articles reviewed showed that there was a good level, two studies showed a moderate level, and three studies reported a poor level of knowledge among respondents. For the attitude part, eight studies showed a positive attitude towards food safety attitudes and the prevention of food poisoning with a high level of satisfaction. However, one study had reported that there was a negative attitude to the prevention of food poisoning among respondents. For the practical part, six studies had a good level, two studies showed that there was an average score of food safely towards practices and food poisoning prevention, and one study reported that there were unsatisfactory food safety practices. In the reviewed studies, there was a positive association between KAP’s level of food poisoning prevention and its socio-demographic profile, including age, sex, ethnicity, education, income, work experience, and attending food safety and hygiene training. There is a need to improve knowledge, awareness and practice among the community on food safety due to the increase in foodborne disease cases in Malaysia.

Nutrition menu labelling has been implemented in a number of restaurants in Malaysia. However, no known empirical research has focused on assessing the knowledge, attitude and perception (KAP) of nutrition menu labelling among consumers. Therefore, this cross -sectional study was conducted with 155 consumers (age 18 and above) from several selected cafeterias that were equipped with menu nutrition labelling to determine their KAP. Questionnaires consisting of socio-demographic, knowledge, attitude and perception of consumers on menu nutrition labelling, and consumers’ healthy food choices were given to the respondents through a self-administrated approach. The data collected were analysed using SPSS 21. The results show that respondent knowledge was predominantly moderate (54.8%), with a median score of 12 out of 25. Both the attitudes (87.1%) and perceptions (85.2%) of the respondents were mainly positive towards nutrition menu labelling. Attitude (r=0.547, p=0.001) and perception (r=0.539, p=0.001) had positive significant relationships towards healthy food choices among the respondents at p

Malaysia is currently experiencing an epidemiologic and demographic transition. Rapid urbanization and vast changes in lifestyles among the population has led to widespread cardiovascular disease (CVD) outcomes. Also, until now, the most prevalent cardiovascular risk factor has remained unknown among the Malaysian population. This study aimed to identify the most significant cardiovascular risk factor among multiethnic adults in Dengkil, Selangor. A case-control retrospective study comparing past exposure (retrospective) between the case (total cholesterol (TC) ≥ 5.18 mmol/L) and control groups (TC < 5.18 mmol/L) on CVD risk via guided questionnaire comprised of International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ), Food Frequency Questionnaire (FFQ), Depression, Anxiety and Stress Scales (DASS)-21 and SF-12 was carried out among 180 respondents aged 20 to 56 years in Dengkil, Selangor. In the present study, purposive and consecutive sampling were both applied to recruit respondents and also considering ethnic as a factor; thus, quota sampling was also conducted. The data were analyzed using Mann-Whitney, Kruskal-Wallis, Chi-Square, Independent Samples t-test and multiple logistic regression tests. The findings indicated there were no significant differences (p > 0.05) regarding all the risk factors between the case and control groups except for personal medical history (p < 0.05). Chinese possessed the highest number of significant risk and protective factors. Lastly, the quality of life of Malay controls was higher than that of cases in terms of Physical Component Summary (PCS). Generally, all the risk factors were independent in terms of total cholesterol status, except for personal medical history. The significance of risk factors and protective factors varies according to ethnicity.

Interest in botanical remedies has attracted growing attention in Chinese herbal teas among industry, scientists and consumers. A survey was conducted among 203 respondents recruited from several Chinese herbal shops in a selected town in Kedah. Data were subjected to obtain descriptive statistics and inferential tests. The results showed that more than half of consumers have moderate knowledge level and almost positive attitude towards Chinese herbal tea. Consumers of different races have a significant difference in knowledge score towards Chinese herbal tea. In addition, consumers’ attitude between different age groups was also found to be different. Consumers’ gender, race, age, marital status, and employment status were associated with their Chinese herbal tea consumption. This study revealed public’ understanding towards knowledge, attitude and consumption towards Chinese herbal tea. It is anticipated that these findings may benefit authorities in policies and regulations development and convey correct information and useful knowledge for the public as well as Chinese herbal tea traders for strategic marketing to meet consumers’ demand.

There is increased interest in the novel approach of classifying food based on the nature of its processing and its contribution towards diet-related diseases. Therefore, the main objective of this study is to determine the relationship between this novel food classification system and nutritional status of adults in Kuala Nerus, Terengganu. This cross-sectional study involved 200 respondents aged 18 years and above. A self- and researcher-administered questionnaire consisting of three different parts, namely a sociodemographic profile, nutritional status assessment, and food classification system (via two days 24 hours dietary recall) was used to collect data. SPSS version 20.0 was used for data analysis. Results showed that energy contributions of respondents were dominated by foods from group 1 and group 2 i.e. unprocessed food, minimally processed food and processed culinary ingredients. The energy contribution from ultra-processed food consumption was 24% of the average total daily energy consumption at 1818 kcal. The average nutritional status of respondents showed both BMI (M = 25.33, IQR = 6.79) and body fat percentage (M = 28.01, SD = 9.08) were overweight. Further data, including waist circumferences (M = 84.57 cm, SD = 11.7); fasting blood glucose level (M = 5.3 mmol/L, IQR = 0.80); total cholesterol (M = 4.60 mmol/L, IQR = 1.6); triglycerides (M = 1.00 mmol/L, IQR = 0.44); and LDL level (M = 2.74 mmol/L, IQR = 1.35) were normal. Systolic blood pressure (M = 112.50 mmHg, IQR = 20) and diastolic blood pressure (M = 78.84mmHg, SD = 11.73) were optimal, and the HDL levels of the respondents were borderline (M = 1.42mmol/L, IQR = 0.47). Pearson and Spearman correlations were performed to determine the relationship between ultra-processed food consumption and nutritional status and found no significant relationship between both variables. All in all, the findings can be used in the development of evidence-based interventions aimed at encouraging the consumption of minimally processed foods and reducing ultra-processed food consumption among the general public.

Osteoporosis is the most common bone disease in humans, representing a major public health problem. Few studies have investigated osteoporosis risk factors such as calcium and vitamin D intake, quality of life and body mass index (BMI) among multi-ethnic adults in the Malaysian context. This study aimed to determine the ethnic variation in osteoporosis risk factors among students in Universiti Malaysia Terengganu (UMT). A cross-sectional study via a self-administrated questionnaire was carried out among 198 respondents aged 19 to 25 years from UMT. The data in the present study included a three -day food record and anthropometric measurements. Nutritionist ProTM analysis software version 5.3 was used to calculate dietary calcium and vitamin D intake from the diet histories, based on the Nutrient Composition of Malaysian Food Database guidance for the dietary calcium intake and the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) for vitamin D intake. The data were analyzed using Kruskal-Wallis, Mann-Whitney and ChiSquare tests. The findings indicate the median calcium intake was 348.3 mg/day while for vitamin D intake was only 1.37 µg/day. Indian participants had a significantly lower intake level of calcium (243.5 mg/day), followed by Chinese (362.3 mg/day) and Malays (440.4 mg/day). The median vitamin D intakes of Malay, Chinese, and Indian adults were 2.15 μg/day, 1.37 μg/day and 1.14 μg/day, respectively. Furthermore, the BMI among respondents at 20.88 (6.4) kg/m2 categorized as normal weight. It was found that there was no significant difference (p> 0.05) in BMI across ethnicity. Lastly, there was a significant association (p< 0.05) between ethnicity and calcium intake (p = 0.001).

The Malaysian Nutrition Research Priorities for Malaysia’s 11th Plan noted the necessity to investigate in depth the consumption of ultra-processed food among the Malaysian population. No empirical research has focused on exploring the energy contribution of ultra-processed foods and the socio-demographic determinants of ultra-processed foods. Thus, this study was conducted to investigate the relationship between the increasing consumption of ultra-processed foods with socio-demographic factors particularly in Terengganu, Malaysia. This cross-sectional study provides a novel approach to quantifying energy contribution of 200 adults (living in Terengganu; aged 18 to 59 years) based on the ultra-processed food classification named as NOVA, via semi-quantitative Food Frequency Questionnaire, and to determine the association between energy contribution of ultra-processed foods and socio-demographic characteristics. The selfadministered questionnaire consists of three sections: socio-demographic profile, frequency of ultra-processed food consumption and energy contribution of NOVA food groups. All data were analysed using SPSS version 21. The findings show that the contribution of ultra-processed foods among respondents was lower (40.38%) compared to unprocessed and minimally processed foods (55.73%). The most frequent consumed ultraprocessed foods were noodles and fried chicken (fast food). Meanwhile, the least frequently consumed foods included frozen chicken pie and garlic spread. There were significant associations between the energy contribution of ultra-processed foods and marital status, educational level, monthly household income and occupational status meanwhile there was no significant association between age and gender at p
