In order to assess nutritional adequacy, reliable estimates of nutrient intake are required. Specifically, the EURopean micronutrient RECommendations Aligned (EURRECA) Network of Excellence needs clear guidelines on methods suitable for assessing micronutrient intakes among vulnerable population groups. The objective of this project was to collect, evaluate data and review the suitability of methods used to assess dietary intake of low-income groups across Europe. A comprehensive literature review methodology was employed, which involved structured search MEDLINE, from 1990 to 2008, on (nutrient intake methods) and (validity terms) and (human studies) and finally (low-income terms). In addition, manual searches were conducted for published books and national studies. Seven studies satisfied the selection criteria for inclusion in the review in which four dietary intake methods had been described and validated. Three other studies found in the grey literature used similar methods. Only one study tested a variety of methods to assess reliability and the method preferred by those having low incomes. Preferred methods were 24 h recalls and a FFQ which, compared with the weighed inventory, also yielded higher estimates of energy and nutrient intakes. Many of the methods used in low-income populations have not been subjected to evaluation and consequently may not demonstrate sensitivity and/or specificity when used in this population. Based on one study only, four multiple-pass 24 h recalls are recommended as the most appropriate method for the evaluation of nutritional adequacy in low-income households.

ABSTRACT Background Limited nationally representative data are available on dietary supplement (DS) use and resulting nutrient exposures among infants and toddlers. Objective This study evaluated DS use among US infants and toddlers to characterize DS use, estimate nutrient intake from DSs, and assess trends in DS use over time. Methods Using nationally representative data from NHANES (2007–2014) and trends over time (1999–2014), we estimated prevalence of DS use and types of products used for US infants and toddlers aged <2 y (n = 2823). We estimated median daily intakes of vitamins and minerals consumed via DSs for all participants aged <2 y, by age groups (0–11.9 mo and 12.0–23.9 mo), and by feeding practices for infants 0–5.9 mo. Results Overall, 18.2% (95% CI: 16.2%, 20.3%) of infants and toddlers used ≥1 DS in the past 30 d. Use was lower among infants (0–5.9 mo: 14.6%; 95% CI: 11.5%, 18.1%; 6–11.9 mo: 11.6%; 95% CI: 8.8%, 15.0%) than among toddlers (12–23.9 mo: 23.3%; 95% CI: 20.4%, 26.3%). The most commonly reported DSs were vitamin D and multivitamin infant drops for those <12 mo, and chewable multivitamin products for toddlers (12–23.9 mo). The nutrients most frequently consumed from DSs were vitamins D, A, C, and E for those <2 y; for infants <6 mo, a higher percentage of those fed breast milk than those fed formula consumed these nutrients via DSs. DS use remained steady for infants (6–11.9 mo) and toddlers from 1999–2002 to 2011–2014, but increased from 7% to 20% for infants aged 0–5.9 mo. Conclusions One in 5 infants and toddlers aged <2 y use ≥1 DS. Future studies should examine total nutrient intake from foods, beverages, and DSs to evaluate nutrient adequacy overall and by nutrient source.

Abstract Objectives The objective of this study was to determine the contribution of total dairy, milk, cheese, and yogurt to energy and nutrient intake in infants’ and toddlers’ diets, age 4–23 months, using the most recent data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) 2013–2016. Methods Data from NHANES 2013–2014 and 2015–2016 for subjects 4 months to less than 24 months of age was used with exclusions for consumers of human milk and those with incomplete data. Nutrient intakes from total dairy, milk (milk, flavored milk, dairy drinks, and substitutes), cheese, and yogurt were determined using the USDA databases. Separate analyses were done for age groups: 4–6 months (n = 136), 7–11 months (n = 226), 12–17 months (n = 200) and 18–23 months (n = 196) after adjusting for complex sample design of NHANES. Results Conclusions Contribution of dairy foods for energy and most nutrients was 1% or less for infants 4–6 months, 16% or less for ages 7–11months and more than 25% for age 12–17 months and 18–23 months; and milk was always the main contributor of energy and most nutrients.
