title: Impact of orange juice consumption on macronutrient and energy intakes and body composition in the US population.
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  The present study evaluated the contribution of 100 % orange juice (OJ) consumption to the intakes of macronutrients and energy and its impact on body composition.
  
  
  METHODS
  A cross-sectional study was conducted. The main exposure was OJ consumption based on two non-consecutive 24 h diet recalls. Macronutrient and energy intakes and body composition parameters were outcome measures. All statistical analyses were carried out using SAS and SUDAAN statistical software packages to allow for multistage sample designs.
  
  
  METHODS
  The US population and its subgroups.
  
  
  METHODS
  The US population aged ≥4 years (n 13 971) from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey 2003-2006, conducted by the National Center for Health Statistics.
  
  
  RESULTS
  In this US population, OJ consumers had lower BMI and healthier lifestyle behaviours (including lower alcohol consumption and smoking as well as higher exercise level) than non-consumers (P < 0.05). After adjusting for covariates, OJ consumers had higher daily intakes of carbohydrate, total sugar, total fat and energy than non-consumers (P < 0.01). However, these linear trends still remained even after OJ was removed from the food list of items consumed. Adult OJ consumers had lower BMI, waist circumference and percentage body fat than non-consumers (P < 0.01), as well as lower odds ratio for overweight and obesity (P < 0.01). These effects were not seen in children and adolescents, where there was no significant difference in BMI, waist circumference and percentage body fat in OJ consumers compared with non-consumers.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  OJ consumption was associated with healthier body composition in adults; while there were no significant associations between OJ consumption and body composition in children and adolescents.
