Introspection

Introspection

Introspection, long upheld as a reliable route to self-knowledge, involves examining one's thoughts, emotions, and mental processes. It underpins many psychological practices, from mindfulness meditation to psychotherapy and self-help strategies. However, empirical evidence challenges the accuracy of introspection as a means of understanding oneself.Limitations of Introspective InsightSeminal work by Nisbett and Wilson demonstrated that individuals are frequently unaware of the true causes...

Enteral Nutrition II: Nasointestinal and Gastrostomy Feeding

Enteral Nutrition II: Nasointestinal and Gastrostomy Feeding

Enteral nutrition encompasses various methods of delivering nutrition directly to the gastrointestinal (GI) tract, bypassing traditional oral intake. It is particularly beneficial for patients who cannot eat by mouth but have a functioning digestive system. Key methods include nasointestinal feeding, gastrostomy, and jejunostomy, each suited to different clinical scenarios based on the patient's needs and condition.

Regulation of Food Intake

Regulation of Food Intake

Short-term regulation of food intake primarily involves neural signals from the gastrointestinal (GI) tract, blood nutrient levels, and GI tract hormones. Communication between the gut and brain via vagal nerve fibers plays a significant role in evaluating the contents of the gut. Clinical studies have shown that protein ingestion produces a more prolonged response in these nerve fibers compared to an equivalent amount of glucose. Additionally, the activation of stretch receptors caused by GI...

Optimal Foraging

Optimal Foraging

How animals obtain and eat their food is called foraging behavior. Foraging can include searching for plants and hunting for prey and depends on the species and environment.

Patient-centered Care

Patient-centered Care

Patient-centered care involves delivering care beyond inpatient hospitalization. Reflective practice can enhance a patient-centered approach. Reflective practice is a process of reasoning that considers all aspects of the present situation, including practicalities, learning from personal practice, and consideration of patient needs. Patients appreciate care decisions made while considering their input. Involving the patient in their care provides the patient with a sense of contribution rather...

Neural Regulation

Neural Regulation

Digestion begins with a cephalic phase that prepares the digestive system to receive food. When our brain processes visual or olfactory information about food, it triggers impulses in the cranial nerves innervating the salivary glands and stomach to prepare for food.

Area of Science:

Pediatrics
Nutrition Science
Psychology

Background:

Responsive feeding is a best practice for infant and young child feeding.
A persistent gap exists between responsive feeding recommendations and caregiver implementation.
Mindful feeding, defined as present-centered awareness in the feeding context, is an emerging construct.

Purpose of the Study:

To explore mindful feeding as a potential adjunct to responsive feeding.
To understand how mindful feeding may facilitate responsive feeding practices.
To propose integration of mindful feeding into feeding guidance and interventions.

Main Methods:

Comparison of definitions, theoretical frameworks, and measurement tools for mindful and responsive feeding.
Review of early evidence on mindful feeding outcomes.
Argument for mindful feeding as a supportive intrapersonal factor.

Main Results:

Mindful feeding is associated with positive child nutrition and development outcomes, similar to responsive feeding.
Mindful feeding may enhance caregiver awareness, emotional regulation, and receptivity to child cues.
Mindful feeding can equip caregivers to better respond to hunger and satiety signals.

Conclusions:

Mindful feeding shows promise as an adjunct to support responsive feeding implementation.
Integrating mindful feeding into guidance and interventions warrants consideration.
Further research is needed to support the integration of mindful feeding into infant and young child feeding practices.
