Introduction
The title of this particular article is about ‘Everyday Eating Experiences of Chocolate and Non Chocolate Snacks Impact Postprandial Anxiety, Energy and Emotional States’. The authors for this research were Francois-Pierre J. Martin, Nicolas Antile, Serge Rezzi, and Sunil Kocha. Moreover, this research data were published online on 20 Jun 2012.
Methodology
The aim of conducting this research is to study the relationships between sensitivity to anxiety and food using a repeated exposures design with three different interspersed test over a period of two weeks. With this, the test involve three tested food products which were dark chocolate, milk chocolate snack and cheese crackers. 28 male participates and 62 female participates …show more content…
The objective of the study is comparing the mood of vegetarians who never eat fish with the mood of their healthy omnivorous counterparts. The physical health status of vegetarians was recorded regarding the mental health status and particularly with regard to mood. This study was written by Bonnie L Beezhold, Carol S Johnston and Deanna R Daigle in year 2010.
Methodology
A survey consist of quantitative food frequency questionnaire, Depression Anxiety Stress Scale (DASS), and Profile of Mood States (POMS) questionnaires are completed by 138 volunteers from seventh day Adventist(SDA). Volunteers are being examined for their associations between mood state and polyunsaturated fatty acid intake as a result of adherence to a vegetarian or an omnivorous diet.
Survey question included three part:
First, health history questionnaire captured demographic information of participants. One of the question needed a validated total weekly leisure activity screening tool since physical activity can modulate …show more content…
Vegetarians reported have significantly lower mean intakes of EPA, DHA, as well as the omega-6 fatty acid, arachidonic acid (AA), and reported higher mean intakes of shorter-chain α-linolenic acid and linoleic acid than omnivores. Mean total DASS and POMS scores were positively related to mean intakes of EPA (p < 0.05), DHA (p < 0.05), and AA (p < 0.05), and inversely related to intakes of ALA (p < 0.05), and LA (p < 0.05), indicating that participants with low intakes of EPA, DHA, and AA and high intakes of ALA and LA had better mood. Next, vegetarians were reported significantly having less negative emotion than the omnivores as measured by both mood scales. The DASS scores also indicated a more favourable mood state for vegetarians participants as compared to omnivores participants (8.32 ± 0.88 vs 17.52 ± 1.88, p = .000). Thus, low intakes of EPA and DHA are not linked to the mood state of vegetarian populations, because intakes of ALA are generally high, AA intakes are low, and conversion of LA to AA is
