“…The adequate assessment of food intake practices is critical to determine dietary trends and assess the effects of interventions at the population level. One goal of measuring dietary intake is to capture usual or habitual intake or a person’s dietary consumption over extended periods of time [ 7 ]. Different analytic methods for estimating usual intake have been developed to address the issue of within-person variation found in dietary intake data as assessed by 24-h recalls [ 8 ].…”

The burden of preventable diet-related diseases is significant and becoming worse. Thus, accurately assessing food intake is crucial to guide public health policies and actions. Using food dietary recalls, we evaluated usual dietary intake according to physical activity and nutritional status in an adult urban population from Brasília, Brazil. The usual nutrient and energy intakes distributions were estimated using the Iowa State University (ISU) method. Energy and nutrient intakes were stratified by gender, age group, body mass index (BMI), and physical activity (PA). The prevalence of inadequate intake was highest for vitamins E and D. Both men and women had excessive sodium intake. The percentage of intakes below daily serving recommendations for food groups were 96% for cereals, 74% for vegetables, and 87% for dairy products, whereas percentage of intakes above daily serving recommendations were 97% for meat, 93% for pulses, and 99% for fat/oils. Energy and nutrient intakes were highest in overweight and physically active individuals within the categories of BMI and physical activity, respectively. Our study found that high-income urban Brazilians consume large quantities of meat, beans, fat/oils, and exhibit a low prevalence of nutrient inadequacies but have excessive sodium intake. Energy and nutrient intakes are highest among men, as well as overweight and physically active individuals.

“…Nonetheless, feeding is a complex phenomenon and assessing dietary intake is not an easy task, and there are many sources of measurement errors associated with the different dietary intake instruments, the subject, and the investigator. Thus, reliable estimates of usual intake distributions are needed to provide accurate estimates of intake distributions at the population level (Da Costa & Gigante, 2013). Correcting measurement errors of food and nutrient intake is crucial to reliably produce estimates of long‐term average intake, which is the usual intake (Dodd et al, 2006).…”

Diet plays a key role in improving sports performance in athletes with disabilities (Broad, 2014). It is important to consider the disability, its impact on functional ability, medication use, and the sport modality when determining nutritional solutions to ensure improved performance and health for the para-athletes involved (Islamoglu & Kenger, 2019). Adherence to dietary guidelines, even those aimed at the general population, can serve as a key component in preventing many health problems in athletes with disabilities, who are vulnerable to stress and fatigue (Rastmanesh et al., 2007). The steps towards developing individualised, periodised nutrition approaches for athletes with an impairment are no different to doing so for the able-bodied population (Broad, 2014).Dietary guidelines specifically developed to optimise the performance of athletes without

“…Food intake is a complex phenomenon and its assessment using available tools is subject to errors inherent to the instruments themselves, as well as the interviewee and the interviewer. These errors, defined as systematic and random, should be known and controlled in order to generate more precise and powerful data to reveal risks associated to unhealthy dietary patterns [ 2 ].…”

Between-country comparisons of estimated dietary intake are particularly prone to error when different food composition tables are used. The objective of this study was to describe our procedures and rationale for the selection and adaptation of available food composition to a single database to enable cross-country nutritional intake comparisons. Latin American Study of Nutrition and Health (ELANS) is a multicenter cross-sectional study of representative samples from eight Latin American countries. A standard study protocol was designed to investigate dietary intake of 9000 participants enrolled. Two 24-h recalls using the Multiple Pass Method were applied among the individuals of all countries. Data from 24-h dietary recalls were entered into the Nutrition Data System for Research (NDS-R) program after a harmonization process between countries to include local foods and appropriately adapt the NDS-R database. A food matching standardized procedure involving nutritional equivalency of local food reported by the study participants with foods available in the NDS-R database was strictly conducted by each country. Standardization of food and nutrient assessments has the potential to minimize systematic and random errors in nutrient intake estimations in the ELANS project. This study is expected to result in a unique dataset for Latin America, enabling cross-country comparisons of energy, macro- and micro-nutrient intake within this region.
