Scope
To perform a benefit-risk assessment in order to find out what would be the effects of additional vitamins, either in form of fortified foods or vitamin supplements, to children having a low vegetable diet (low vegetable diet assumed to be a junk-food rich diet).
Definition
Boundaries
- target age group: children 6 years
- countries: Finland, Ireland, Denmark, and Spain
- vitamins: A (beta-carotene), B6, C, D
expected/considered effects/impacts:
- vitamin D overdose
- vitamin A, B6, C, D deficiency
- effects of sugar and fat in diet
- life-long impacts: obesity, CVD, type 2 diabetes
Time limits for case (agreed milestones/deliverables):
- A summary table of the most important risks and benefits of vegetables vs. supplements and food fortification promised on month 18 (could this be replaced with the case research plan including the rationale behind scoping etc.?)
- Final product (D40 Full benefit-risk analysis: vegetables) ready by month 34
Scenarios
- BAU (description current situation)
- vitamin addition(s) of given amount(s) to children belonging to low vegetable diet category
Intended users
possible target groups for using the information (prioritisation needed):
- children's educators: school teachers, school health care personnel
- public health care personnel
- Parents of the children
- decision-makers on vitamin supplement and food fortification regulations
- food producers
- vitamin supplement producers
Participants
Participating project members/person months:
- KTL | 7
- TUDelft | 0
- FFiles | 0
- FSAI | 1
- DTU | 1
- FVST | 0
- Lendac | 0
- FIN | 2
- case study will be carried out openly (will be carried out on open website: http://en.opasnet.org)
- any participants among the identified potential user groups to be invited?
- any participants among the target group (children of age 6) to be invited?
Data
Decision variables
- Vitamin addition to a child's diet, either
- in form of fortified foods (food fortification?)
- in form of vitamin supplements
Indicators
Other variables
Analyses
- Prioritisation on the most important effects and uncertainties will be done using value-of-information method and other techniques
