Favoriser durablement des comportements de santé est un objectif majeur de la promotion de la santé. Or, les comportements humains dépendent d'une large multiplicité de facteurs et ne sont pas parfaitement prévisibles ni contrôlable. Alors que l'éducation pour la santé est critiquée pour être trop axée sur le changement de comportement intentionnel et l'approche structurelle comme trop contrôlante, le « nudging » est introduit comme une approche qui permet d'inciter les individus à prendre les décisions qui leur seront bénéfiques tout en préservant leur liberté de choix. Défini comme « un changement de l'architecture de choix modifiant le comportement des individus d'une façon prévisible, sans interdire d'options ni modifier les incitations économiques » le nudging peut ainsi être envisagé comme un complément aux techniques traditionnelles de promotion de la santé. Néanmoins, la technique soulève de sérieuses questions éthiques et les professionnels de la santé publique semblent réticents à sa mise en place. C'est pourquoi, avant de pouvoir l'implémenter, les opinions du public sur cette technique et sur les conditions de son application doivent être mieux connues. Méthodes : Cette étude qualitative vise à étudier l'implémentabilité contextualisée du nudging à travers l'opinion d'individus ayant été soumis à la pratique et celles de responsables. Une analyse thématique des réponses aux questionnaires qualitatifs et entretiens semi-directifs permettra d'étudier les caractéristiques du nudging et les éléments du contexte influençant son implémentation. Résultats : La majorité des répondants (bénéficiaires et décideurs) est favorable à l'utilisation de nudges pour autant que .l'action soit légitime et que l'objectif soit de promouvoir la santé. Les éléments favorisant son adoption sont rassemblés et le contexte semble également propice à sa mise en place. Ces divers éléments encouragent l'implémentation effective et durable de la technique dans le contexte étudié. Pour cela, l'approche doit être transparente, complémentaire, participative et inciter aux choix réfléchis.

Nutritional epidemiology examines dietary or nutritional factors in relation to the occurrence of disease in various populations. It is a fact that substantial progress has been made in recent years in nutritional epidemiology. Compared to the practice during the 1990s, and with the improvements in data analytics, several new approaches are gaining ground. Results from a variety of large-scale studies in the field of nutrition epidemiology have substantially contributed toward the evidence used in guiding dietary recommendations for the prevention of cardiovascular diseases, metabolic disorders, some types of cancer, and other morbidities. In this Special Issue, we would like to bring readers closer to the state-of-the-art in the field by gathering papers covering different aspects of nutrition epidemiology from population-based observational studies. Topics of the submitted articles may, but not necessarily, include eating habits of various populations, especially of those not well-studied, such as in Africa, Oceania, South Americas, immigrants, minorities, as well as a variety of associations between nutrients/foods/food patterns and chronic diseases, like cardiovascular, diabetes, obesity, cancer, etc., and gene–nutrient and epigenome–nutrient interactions related to human health at all ages.

This book is generally focused on food choice and which factors are associated with the decisions that define people’s eating behaviour. These factor are highly variable and include influences from the surrounding environment as well as the individual characteristics of each person. The book includes a number of chapters that address these issues from different points of view. Some explore the psychology of food choices or the cultural aspects and tradition, as well as the influence of surrounding contexts. Others focus on the role of lifestyle on eating practices and health motivations, but also the food marketing and the sensory aspects of food, as a way to incentive consumption. Finally, sustainability concerns and environmental impacts can also shape and help change people’s food choices.Within the chapters gathered on this book you will find key topics that apply to everyday food choices or that can help target food consumption goals towards better health, more sustainable food chains and happier life styles.

Childhood obesity continues to be a global problem, with several regions showing increasing rates and others having one in every three children overweight despite an apparent halt or downward trend. Children are exposed to nutritional, social, and obesogenic environmental risks from different settings, and this affects their lifelong health. There is a consensus that high-quality multifaceted smart and cost-effective interventions enable children to grow with a healthy set of habits that have lifelong benefits to their wellbeing. The literature has shown that dietary approaches play key roles in improving children’s health, not only on a nutritional level but also in diet quality and patterns. An association between the nutritional strategy and other lifestyle components promotes a more comprehensive approach and should be envisioned in intervention studies. This Special Issue entitled “Child Obesity and Nutrition Promotion Intervention” combines original research manuscripts or reviews of the scientific literature concerning classic or innovative approaches to tackle this public health issue. It presents several nutritional interventions alongside lifestyle health factors, and outcome indicators of effectiveness and sustainability from traditional to ground-breaking methods to exploit both qualitative and quantitative approaches in tackling child obesity.
