“…Previous studies have demonstrated racial-ethnic disparities in the consumption of SSB among US children (15)(16)(17)(18)(19)(20) . These disparities likely contribute to higher rates of diseases among racialethnic minorities in the USA including type 2 diabetes (21) and fatty liver disease (22) . Understanding disparities in SSB consumption and tracking trends in consumption among different racial-ethnic groups is critical for the design and evaluation of policies to reduce SSB consumption.…”

Objective: To assess trends in consumption of soda, sweetened fruit drinks/sports drinks and any sugar-sweetened beverage (SSB) from 2013 to 2016 among all children in California aged 2–5 and 6–11 years and by racial-ethnic group. Design: Serial cross-sectional study using the California Health Interview Survey (CHIS). Setting: CHIS is a telephone survey of households in California designed to assess population-level estimates of key health behaviours. Previous research using CHIS documented a decrease in SSB consumption among children in California from 2003 to 2009 coinciding with state-level policy efforts targeting child SSB consumption. Participants: Parents of children in California aged 2–11 years (n 4901 in 2013–2014; n 3606 in 2015–2016) were surveyed about the child’s consumption of soda and sweetened fruit drinks/sports drinks on the day prior. Results: Among 2–5-year-olds, consumption of soda, sweetened fruit drinks/sports drinks and any SSB remained stable. Sweetened fruit drink/sports drink consumption was higher than soda consumption in this age group. Latino 2–5- year-olds were more likely to consume any SSB in both 2013–2014 and 2015–2016 compared with Whites. Among 6–11-year-olds, consumption of soda, sweetened fruit drinks/sports drinks and any SSB also remained stable over time. Latino and African-American 6–11-year-olds were more likely to consume an SSB in 2013–2014 compared with White children. Conclusions: SSB consumption among children in California was unchanged from 2013 to 2016 and racial-ethnic disparities were evident. Increased policy efforts are needed to further reduce SSB consumption, particularly among children of Latino and African-American backgrounds.

“…The most recent National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey demonstrated that the prevalence of obesity continues to rise among all pediatric age groups with the sharpest increase seen among adolescents (Skinner, Ravanbakht, Skelton, Perrin, & Armstrong, 2018). Latino children in the United States are nearly twice as likely to be obese compared to non-Hispanic white children (Skinner et al, 2018) and have a higher risk of obesityrelated complications such as diabetes and fatty liver disease (Botero, Hoy, Jimenez, Koru-Sengul, & Messiah, 2018;Dabelea et al, 2014;Trico et al, 2018). Living in a low-income household is also associated with increased risk of childhood obesity (Ogden et al, 2018).…”

Barriers and facilitators to healthy eating among low-income Latino adolescents

et al. 2019

Objective:The objective of this study was to explore barriers and facilitators to healthy eating among low-income Latino adolescents using an intervention development framework.Methods: Semi-structured interviews (n=30) were conducted with Latino youth ages 13-17 who had overweight or obesity at a safety-net clinic in San Francisco, CA. Adolescent beliefs and attitudes regarding healthy eating and individual, family, and community level barriers and facilitators were elicited. Interviews were analyzed using an inductive approach and the Capability-Opportunity-Motivation (COM-B) model.Results: Participants had capability gaps; while they demonstrated basic nutrition knowledge, they also held significant misconceptions about healthy eating, equating "organic" with healthy and failing to recognize sugar in a number of beverages and foods. Families were a source of support through role modeling and purchasing fresh produce, yet in many cases also undermined adolescents' healthy eating goals through purchases of high calorie low nutrient food, an opportunity facilitator and challenge. By contrast, peers were mostly a negative influence due to frequent consumption of high calorie low nutrient food. The school environment posed opportunity challenges as participants found school lunch unpalatable and had ready access to

“…In the United States, Hispanic individuals have the highest prevalence of MASLD, followed by non-Hispanic White individuals and then non-Hispanic Black individuals [2,[11][12][13][14][15] Of patients with biopsy-proven MASLD, the frequency of MASH varies by race and ethnicity with highest frequency in Hispanic individuals, then non-Hlispanic White individuals, and then non-Hispanic Black individuals and Asian individuals [16] The largest rate of increase of hospital admissions with MASLD was found amongst Hispanic individuals, followed by non-Hispanic White individuals andthen non Hispanic Black individuals [18] Within Hispanic populations in the United States, the prevalence of MASLD is higlher in those of Mexican origin [12,15,19,20] Similar trends are found among young adults and adolescent populatiorns with Hispanic individuals having a significantly higher prevalence of MASLD than non Hispanic individuals [21,22] Non-Hispanic Black individuals are less likely to develop MASLD tthan non-Hispanic White individuals [25,26] MASH: Metabolic Dysfunction-associated Steatohepatitis; MASLD: Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease.…”

“…Similar disparities in the prevalence of MASLD exist in children and adolescents. Data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey between 2007 and 2016, including 4,654 adolescents and young adults aged 12 to 29 years old, found that among all age groups, Hispanic individuals had a statistically significant higher prevalence of MASLD than non-Hispanic White individuals and non-Hispanic Black individuals (38.3% vs. 22.4% vs. 14.0% among young adults aged 25-29 for example) [21] . This study also reported an increase in the prevalence of MASLD among the 18-24-year-old age group between 2007-2016, which was felt to be partially driven by increases among young Hispanic men.…”

Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) has an increasing prevalence, morbidity, and mortality both within the U.S. and globally. Here, we review newer evidence demonstrating racial and ethnic disparities that exist in the incidence of MASLD in the U.S. Many studies demonstrate that Hispanic populations have the highest prevalence of MASLD within the U.S., followed by non-Hispanic White populations and then non-Hispanic Black populations. In addition, we present the latest research investigating specific factors that contribute to these disparities, including genetics, environmental exposures, diet, physical activity, and socioeconomic disparities. Finally, we discuss future directions and interventions needed to increase knowledge of racial and ethnic disparities in MASLD and reduce future disparities. The necessary strategies include increasing diversity and documentation of race and ethnicity in MASLD clinical studies, and increased screening and preventative health education for MASLD in vulnerable populations.
