Abstract

We studied the relationship between reading nutrition labels and percent calorie intake from fat. In adolescent boys, reading nutrition labels was associated with higher fat intake. In girls, fat intake did not differ by frequency of nutrition label reading. Nutrition label reading does not translate into healthier diet in adolescents.

摘要

我们研究了阅读营养标签与脂肪热量摄入百分比之间的关系。在青少年男性中，阅读营养标签与较高的脂肪摄入量相关。在青少年女性中，脂肪摄入量不因阅读营养标签的频率而有所不同。阅读营养标签并不能转化为青少年更健康的饮食。
