Sažetak
Obesity is connected with a large scale of serious medical conditions including premature death, type 2 diabetes, hearth diseases, stroke, sleep apnoea, osteoarthritis, gallbladder diseases, asthma, cancer, and depression. It is important to start prevention measures at the earliest age because the obesity in earliest childhood and adolescence is the strongest predictor for obesity later in life. Intake of fruits and vegetables among children is lover than among adults. Therefore, the aim of this study was to explore the acceptance of new food at pre-school children: sweet potatoes dumplings and cakes. This root vegetable can be classified as an antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and anti-diabetic food. The facial hedonic 7-point scale was used to determine the acceptance level for this new food. In this study 158 pre-school children had participated (75 girls and 83 boys, 2– 6 yr). The mean hedonic score for all children was 5.49 and 3.02 for dumplings and cakes, respectively (p<0.001). Although hedonic score for dumplings acceptance (5.41, 5.55 and 5.77 for healthy weight, at risk of overweight and overweight, respectively) nor for cake acceptance (3.20, 2.77 and 2.46 for healthy weight, at risk of overweight and overweight, respectively) did not have any statistically significant diference, for cakes was found certain negative trend between acceptability and BMI of children. This study did not affirm the hypothesis that the overweight children have better acceptance for new food such as sweet potatoes dumplings and cakes.
