Hightlights
The most relevant activity of the Group focuses on its research projects funded by the European Commission for the implementation of the coordinated project I. Family (FP7-KBBE-2010-4; Contract FP-266044) and the project “Developing and implementing a community -based intervention to create more supportive social and physical environment for lifestyle changes to prevent diabetes in vulnerable families across Europe (FEEL4DIABETES) “(I-2014/032, Contract HCO-05-2014). In addition, we have projects funded by the Ministry of Health, such as the “Maternal and Child Health and Development Network” (SAMID) (RD08 / 0072). We also work on the analysis of data on the fluid intake of children and adolescents (2014/0525) through data from the HELENA and IDEFICS studies, the promotion of healthy eating in children and the effect of family meals on health and dairy consumption in a healthy diet and lifestyle.
In addition, the effect on short-term appetite satisfaction and satiety of different plant compositions in children and adolescents is evaluated, as well as physical fitness in preschool children and their usefulness as a marker of current and future diseases, such as obesity and osteoporosis. In the same way, we are members of the RedPRYS (Livestock production systems in the Pyrenean region and consumer health, 229392 TPR6 / 13).
