Underreporting of energy intake, socioeconomic status, and expression of nutrient intake.
The relationship between socioeconomic status and nutrient intake was examined in a recent study. The investigators used three different expressions of nutrient intake in an attempt to overcome the confounding effect of underreporting on interpretation of dietary intake data. Biologic validation attempts were inconclusive as to which expression yielded the most accurate results.
