综述的目的本综述的目的是总结和评估最近的研究，该研究调查了味觉暴露、感官学习和营养教育干预措施，以促进学龄前儿童的蔬菜摄入量。近期研究结果总体而言，味觉暴露干预措施对于增加幼儿期蔬菜摄入量产生了最佳结果。视觉接触和体验式学习等感官学习策略的证据也显示出一些成功。虽然营养教育仍然是学前教育中最常用的方法，但需要其他元素来加强增加蔬菜摄入量的教育计划。促进挑食儿童蔬菜摄入的证据基础存在很大差距。总结本综述揭示了促进蔬菜摄入的不同干预策略的相对重要性。为了加强改善学龄前儿童蔬菜摄入量的干预效果，未来的研究可以考虑将味觉接触和感官学习策略与学前课程中的营养教育相结合。
Purpose of Review The present review was undertaken in order to summarize and evaluate recent research investigating taste exposure, sensory learning, and nutrition education interventions for promoting vegetable intake in preschool children.Recent Findings Overall, taste exposure interventions yielded the best outcomes for increasing vegetable intake in early childhood. Evidence from sensory learning strategies such as visual exposure and experiential learning also show some success. While nutrition education remains the most common approach used in preschool settings, additional elements are needed to strengthen the educational program for increasing vegetable intake. There is a substantial gap in the evidence base to promote vegetable intake in food fussy children.Summary The present review reveals the relative importance of different intervention strategies for promoting vegetable intake. To strengthen intervention effects for improving vegetable intake in preschool children, future research could consider integrating taste exposure and sensory learning strategies with nutrition education within the preschool curriculum.
