Analysis of Dietary Intake Data Obtained by 24-Hour Recall in Female College Students - Comparison of Analysis and Assessment Method -

A dietary survey with 24-hour recall method was performed to female college students, and the food intake data were converted to nutrient intakes using two different computer programs. The mean daily energy intake calculated with DS24 program was 1598kcal(79.9% of RDA) while 1840kcal with CAN program. The mean intake of other nutrients was also mostly higher with CAN program than with DS24 program. Therefore, when we assess nutrient intake using CAN program, we must consider the possibility of the overestimation of the intake before interpreting the data. Each 24-hour recall was evaluated for the consumption of items from the dairy, meat, grain, fruit, and vegetable groups. Failure to consume any foods from the fruit, meat, and dairy group was reported by 60.9%, 30.4%, and 21.7% of the subjects, respectively. Consumption of food from all five food group was associated with higher nutrient intake. The results emphasize the need for nutrition education directed at increasing the diversity of the diet. The index of measuring diet quality will be further evaluated.
