Kaitlyn L. I. Samson et al.

Summary: Iron-deficiency anemia is the leading cause of disability-adjusted life years lost in adolescents.

Nutritional quality of lunch meals and plate waste in school lunch programme in Southern Thailand

Jaruneth Petchoo et al.

Summary: Food waste globally affects food security and sustainability, but there are few studies focusing on food waste in schools. This study conducted in Thailand aimed to determine the meal quality and plate waste in school lunch programmes. The findings revealed that excess rice but insufficient meats, fruits, vegetables, and eggs were served in school lunch menus. Plate waste from different menu types varied, with higher waste observed in rice with side dish menus. Plate waste impacted the adequacy of food intakes of schoolchildren.

Summary: Executive functions are a set of higher-order cognitive processes that control and organize information for goal-directed behaviors. Research demonstrates that skills in executive functioning develop throughout childhood and adolescence and are predictive of academic achievement. Nutritional factors, including diet, play a significant role in impacting the neurodevelopmental processes that underlie executive function performance in school-aged children.

Universal School Meals and Associations with Student Participation, Attendance, Academic Performance, Diet Quality, Food Security, and Body Mass Index: A Systematic Review

Juliana F. W. Cohen et al.

Summary: The review concluded that universal free school meals have positive associations with students' participation in school meals, diet quality, food security, academic performance, and BMI, but findings regarding attendance and financial implications were mixed. The study also suggested potential protective effects of universal free school meals on student BMI and positive financial outcomes for lower-income school districts participating in the program. Further research on the financial implications of universal free meals is needed.
