Zusammenfassung: | Objectives:
To describe energy density (ED; kcal g
−1
) of dietary intake of European children.
Methods:
From 16 228 children who participated in the IDEFICS (Identification and prevention of Dietary- and lifestyle-induced health EFfects In Children and infantS) baseline examination, 8551 children with 24-h dietary recalls (24-HDR), with plausible reported energy intakes and complete covariate information were included in the present analysis. ED was calculated using two methods: (1) ED including solid foods (ED
F
) and (2) ED including solid foods and energy-containing beverages (ED
F&B
). Beverage energy was calculated in kcal per day. Dietary characteristics and body mass index (BMI)
