About this study

Official title: Nutritional Study in Spanish Pediatric Population (EsNuPI)

This study investigates the aspects related to the intake of food and nutrients, physical activity and sedentary behavior of Spanish children from 1 to 9 years. Furthermore, the investigators will know if the consumption of dairy products is associated with a better dietary pattern.

Hypothesis: The habitual consumption of dairy products as part of a regular diet is associated with a better dietary pattern and a higher global diet quality.

Read the detailed description

A prospective cross-sectional observational study in 1500 Spanish children (1 to 9 years) in urban areas >50,0000 inhabitants, distributed in eight regions (according to Nielsen Spanish areas) aiming to evaluate the food habits, dietary patterns, and nutrient intake, as well as physical activity behaviors.

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Healthy children between 1 and 9 years oldA sample of 1500 apparently healthy children between 1 to 9 years old from urban areas from different regions of Spain.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Dietary habits

    Dietary diversity and variety determinated by using a FFQ from last year of consumption, the FFQ consisted of 150 food items commonly used in the local Spanish cuisine. The FFQ asked about consumption of foods and beverages in portions per day, week or month

    Measured: 10 months

  2. Food

    Food groups will be obtained from the FFQ of last year's consumption, the FFQ consisted of 150 food items commonly used in the local Spanish cuisine. The FFQ asked about consumption of foods and beverages in portions per day, week or month. The food based dietary guidelines from Spain will be used to determine the number of portions consumed per food group.

    Measured: 10 months

  3. Beverages

    Beverage groups will be obtained from the FFQ of last year's consumption, the FFQ consisted of 150 food items commonly used in the local Spanish cuisine. The FFQ asked about consumption of foods and beverages in portions per day, week or month. The food based dietary guidelines from Spain will be used to determine the number of portions consumed per beverage group.

    Measured: 10 months

  4. Energy, macro and micronutrient composition of the diet

    Energy, macro and micronutrient composition of the diet determined by 2 24-h recalls

    Measured: 10 months

  5. Active and sedentary habits

    Active and sedentary habits were measured with the 1-week activity recall validated in children

    Measured: 10 months

  6. Milk and dairy products consumption

    Evaluate the different types of milk that children drink in 24 h, twice through 24 h dietary

    Measured: 10 months

  7. Dietary quality index for children "KidMed"

    Evaluate the quality of the diet through this quality index for the specific age group

    Measured: 10 months

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Growth and BMI

    Determined by reported age, weight (kg), and height (cm)

    Measured: 1 year

  2. Goldberg & Black cut-off for Energy Intake: Plausibility of the reported energy intake

    Measured by the relation between the reported energy intake and the estimated energy expenditure. The cut-off points are determined by the information reported by the population itself.

    Measured: 1 year
