  RESULTS
  The energy intake in obese children was 1557.0 kcal that was higher than 1442.4 kcal in the control group (P < 0.001). Calculating the intake of nutrients, we found that protein, fat, and CHO in obese children were higher than in the control group. Significant difference in fat and CHO was detected between the two groups.
