ABSTRACT Due to the nutrition transition, adolescent diets globally appear to be shifting to increased consumption of fast foods and snacks high in sodium, added sugar, and saturated fat. In urban informal settlements in Kenya, limited evidence suggests adolescents consume 1–2 meals per day, have low dietary diversity, and consume foods from roadside stalls. We

This study investigated whether caregivers who “tune-in” to their own internal affect and appetite cues, can also recognise and respond to their infant’s appetite cues via responsive feeding (RF). Caregivers (N = 445; mean age: 33.5 ± 4.7 years) with children aged 5–28 m participated in an online survey
