Top food sources of percentage of energy, nutrients to limit and total gram amount consumed among US adolescents: National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey 2011–2014
Objective To identify most commonly consumed foods by adolescents contributing to percentage of total energy, added sugars, SFA, Na and total gram intake per day. Design Data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) 2011–2014. Setting NHANES is a cross-sectional study nationally representative of the US population. Participants One 24 h dietary recall was used to assess dietary intake of 3156 adolescents aged 10–19 years…
Food Sources of Shortfall Nutrients Among US Adolescents: National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) 2011-2014
To identify food sources of shortfall nutrients consumed by adolescents (n = 3156), data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) (2011-2014) were used. Some of the food groups commonly consumed by adolescents made a significant contribution to shortfall nutrient intakes in the diet. Many food sources that provided significant amounts of shortfall nutrients were from foods that also provided nutrients to limit. Awareness…
Snacking patterns, diet quality, and cardiovascular risk factors in adults
Overall, several snacking patterns were associated with better diet quality than those consuming no snacks. Yet, the majority of the snacking patterns were not associated with CVRF. Education is needed to improve snacking patterns in terms of nutrients to limit in the diet along with more nutrient-dense foods to be included in snacks
The nutrient density approach to healthy eating: Challenges and opportunities
The term ‘nutrient density’ for foods/beverages has been used loosely to promote the Dietary Guidelines for Americans. The 2010 Dietary Guidelines for Americans defined ‘all vegetables, fruits, whole grains, fat-free or low-fat milk and milk products, seafood, lean meats and poultry, eggs, beans and peas (legumes), and nuts and seeds that are prepared without added solid fats, added sugars, and sodium’ as nutrient dense. The 2010 Dietary Guidelin…
Characterizing lunch meals served and consumed by pre-school children in Head Start
Objective To examine the variability of food portions served and consumed by African-American and Hispanic-American pre-school children attending Head Start. Design Cross-sectional. Setting Food consumption by pre-schoolers ( n 796) enrolled in sixteen Head Start centres in Houston, Texas (51 % boys, 42 % African-American, mean age 4 years) were assessed during 3 d of lunch meals using digital photography. Descriptive statistics and multilevel re…
Fruit juice consumption is associated with improved nutrient adequacy in children and adolescents: The National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) 2003–2006
Objective To examine the contribution of 100 % fruit juice (FJ) consumption to dietary adequacy of shortfall nutrients by children and adolescents. Design Cross-sectional. Setting Secondary analysis of data from the 2003–2006 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES). Subjects Children and adolescents aged 2–18 years ( n 7250). Usual intake, determined from two 24 h dietary recalls, was calculated using the National Cancer Institu…
Resemblance of dietary intakes of snacks, sweets, fruit, and vegetables among mother–child dyads from low income families
Taking Into Account Scientific Evidence Showing the Benefits of 100% Fruit Juice
In their recent commentary,1 Wojcicki and Heyman suggested that 100% fruit juice consumption is linked to childhood obesity and should be eliminated from the US Department of Agriculture (USDA) Food Programs. This recommendation is unsupported by the scientific literature, which has failed to show an association between overweight and obesity status and moderate consumption of 100% fruit juice in children,2 but evidence does support that 100% fru…
Consumption of whole grains is associated with improved diet quality and nutrient intake in children and adolescents: The National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey 1999–2004
Objective To examine the association of consumption of whole grains (WG) with diet quality and nutrient intake in children and adolescents. Design Secondary analysis of cross-sectional data. Setting The 1999–2004 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey. Subjects Children aged 2–5 years ( n 2278) and 6–12 years ( n 3868) and adolescents aged 13–18 years ( n 4931). The participants were divided into four WG consumption groups: ≥0 to Result…
Are breakfast consumption patterns associated with weight status and nutrient adequacy in African-American children
Objective The objective of the present study was to assess whether weight status, nutrient intake and dietary adequacy were associated with breakfast consumption patterns. Design A representative sample of the US population was used in a secondary analysis of nutrient intake/diet quality and weight status by breakfast consumption patterns. Setting The 1999–2002 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES). Subjects The study sample i…
The impact of dairy product consumption on nutrient adequacy and weight of Head Start mothers
Objective To assess the relationship of dairy product consumption on diet quality and weight of low-income women. Setting Head Start centres in Texas and Alabama, USA. Design Cross-sectional study. Women were divided into dairy consumption groups: ≤1, >1 to ≤2 and >2 servings/d. Nutrient intake/diet quality was determined by calculating the percentage meeting the Estimated Average Requirement, guidelines for fat and added sugar, and Mean Adequacy…
Dietary patterns associated with metabolic syndrome, sociodemographic and lifestyle factors in young adults: The Bogalusa Heart Study
Objective To examine the association between dietary patterns (DP) and risk for metabolic syndrome (MetS); and to identify differences in DP by socio-economic, demographic and lifestyle factors. Design Dietary intake (from an FFQ), anthropometric/biochemical parameters and sociodemographic/lifestyle information (from a self-reported questionnaire) were evaluated, using a cross-sectional design. Statistical methods included principal component fac…
