In a randomised controlled trial designed to mimic intended folic acid intakes of the proposed fortification program in New Zealand, participating reproductive-aged women had a baseline mean red cell folate level of 753 nmol/L [ 36].
However, it is reassuring that serum levels of both phytanic and pristanic acids were strongly correlated with a summary measure of phytanic acid intake that was created using food frequency data [ 28], as the latter instrument is intended to capture usual intake over a long period of time [ 32].
These results show that both majority and minority social norms influence intended and actual fruit intake.
To evaluate the effect of social norms on intended fruit and vegetable intake.
The extra calorie intake was intended to support fetal growth and development.
To test the hypothesis that a tailored intervention intended to reduce salt intake in addition to standard care will achieve a greater reduction in BP in UK Bangladeshi patients with CKD than standard care alone.
In previous work we investigated barriers to dietary salt restriction in Bangladeshi patients with CKD in East London 10 and developed a strategy intended to reduce salt intake in these patients.
Although low-carbohydrate diets are not typically prescribed before administration of a standard OGTT, the 3-day low-carbohydrate diet stabilization period was intended to remove dietary intake as a variable in the present study.
If the IOM intended to encourage diet soda intake as opposed to intake of milk, that's... ugly.
Randomised controlled trials had to compare an intervention intended to reduce total fat intake by reducing percentage energy from fat or total fat in g/day with a usual fat intake arm and to continue the intervention for at least 26 weeks.
