2 Childhood is an important phase of life and creates the base for all further life Childhood is the time of rapid physiological development Development in childhood can modify metabolism and so affect strongly the further health profile However also many health habits can be formed over childhood affecting further health
3 Measuring childhood nutrition is challenging FAO offers information on food consumption at country level, but it is difficult to measure how it is distributed within populations Human anthropometrical measures offer a shortcut to measure nutrition at population level Especially height and relative weight have been widely measured and used in scientific research Childhood is very important phase of life in the formation on adult anthropometrics
4 Trait correlations and additive genetic and specific environmental correlations of height and body mass index from 1 to 17 years of age with 18 years of age in Swedish twin boys correlation A) Height Age Trait correlation Additive genetic correlation Specific environmental correlation correlation B) Body mass index Age Source: Silventoinen et al. Int J Obes 2007 and Am J Hum Biol 2008
5 Over the human history malnutrition has been the major problem in human populations Human growth is sensitive for malnutrition and thus both children and adult height reflects at population level inadequate nutrition in childhood At population level most part of variation of height is because of genetic differences between individuals, but also variation in environmental factor affects individual differences Comparing monozygotic and dizygotic twins offer a powerful tool to separate genetic and environmental parts of variation Association between height and standard of living can be seen when comparing populations Association between height and health gives evidence how childhood nutrition affect health status in adulthood
6 Estimates of variation of height explained by genetic factors, environmental factors shared by co-twins and environmental factors unique foe each twin individual US women US men Sweden women Sweden men Norway women Norway men Netherlands women Netherlands me Italy men Finland women Finland men Denmark women Denmark men Australia women Australia men 0% 10% 20% 30% 40% 50% 60% 70% 80% 90% 100% Additive genetic factors Common environmental factors Specific environmental factors Silventoinen et al Twin Res 2003 and Am J Hum Biol 2004

9 Hazard ratio 0.97 Hazard ratios for CHD incidence in adulthood per 1 unit increase in z-scores of height from 7 to 13 years of age in Danish children Age Boys Girls Source: Silventoinen et al PLoS One
10 Cognitive test performance in Finnish and Danish elderly twins Both in Finland and Denmark shorter height was associated with poorer performance in cognitive test Indicates that chilhood nutrition has effect also on cognitive development seen still decades later
11 In recent decades, excess nutrition has become a major health problem globally Obesity leads to multiple severe health problems Cardiovascular diseases, type 2 diabetes, musculo-skeletal diseases, many cancers, low self-esteem, social discrimination Still a problem especially in industrialized countries following Westernized lifestyle, but an increasing problem also in many middle income societies For example in Mexico obesity is a bigger problem than in USA Many societies suffer double burden having both malnutrition and excess nutrition Low quality nutrition can easily lead to double burden even in same families Children suffer inadequate nutrition but still develop obesity in adulthood In Western countries obesity is linked to poor socio-economic position So also obesity is linked to material deprivation

20 Childhood nutrition has long lasting health effects Poor childhood nutrition is a risk factor for metabolic diseases but also cognitive performance in old age In Western societies, but increasingly also in middle income countries, obesity has replaced malnutrition as the major public health problem Just as for height, genetic factors have major effect on individual differences in body mass index Socio-economic differences in obesity are also a dominant feature in Western countries However environment modifies both genetic effects and socio-economic differences in obesity Twin studies offer an effective way to analyze genetic effects globally since information on twins has widely been collected
