A variety of community and external pressures on Indigenous Peoples are leading to increased use of food that is available through industrialization and market economics; food in traditional food systems derived from local, natural environments is declining in use. This report focusses on dietary intake of Arctic men. While nutrient density of Arctic traditional food systems is superior to that of the composite of market food consumed in the North, the percentage of men's daily energy derived from market food is more than double that from traditional food in some communities. Older members of communities consume more traditional food than younger members; men consume more traditional food than do women. In addition to providing excellent nutrition and opportunities for physical exercise. Indigenous Peoples identify many sociocultural benefits to the harvest and use of traditional food. Evaluation of environmental accumulation of organochlorines in wildlife animal food species shows that risk of organochlorine consumption is higher in food systems containing sea mammals, and that tolerance levels for some organochlorines may be exceeded.
土著人民面临着来自社区和外部的各种压力,这导致他们更多地食用工业化和市场经济提供的食物;源自当地自然环境的传统食物系统中的食物使用量正在下降。本报告重点关注北极男性的饮食摄入情况。虽然北极传统食物系统的营养密度优于北方市场消费的复合食物,但在一些社区,男性每日能量中来自市场食物的比例是传统食物的两倍多。社区中的年长者比年轻者食用更多传统食物;男性比女性食用更多传统食物。除了提供优质营养和体育锻炼机会外,土著人民还认识到收获和食用传统食物有许多社会文化益处。对野生动物食物物种中有机氯的环境积累评估表明,在包含海洋哺乳动物的食物系统中,食用有机氯的风险更高,而且某些有机氯的耐受水平可能会被超过。
