The cross-sectional 2007 Australian National Children's Nutrition and Physical Activity Survey collected detailed dietary information from a representative sample of more than 4400 children by 24-h dietary recall. Dairy food intake by Australian children is substantially lower than recommendations, and decreases as a percentage of energy intake as children grow older. Children aged 2 to 16 years are, on average, 2.3 times more likely to have a dairy food at the first daily occasion of eating, than at the second occasion. For children who consumed any dairy food at the first occasion of eating, the total daily intake of dairy foods was 129% (95% CI 120%-138%) greater than for children who did not consume a dairy food at the first occasion of eating. Their dairy food intake for the rest of the day following the first occasion of eating was also greater by 29% (95% CI 21%-37%). Younger age group, male sex, location of eating being at home or in a residence and starting the first occasion of eating from 6 a.m. to 9 a.m. are all jointly associated with having a dairy food at the first occasion of eating. A simple strategy to increase Australian children's intake from the dairy and alternatives food group may be to make sure that the first occasion of eating each day includes a dairy food or a nutritional equivalent.
2007年澳大利亚全国儿童营养与身体活动横断面调查通过24小时膳食回顾，从4400多名儿童的代表性样本中收集了详细的饮食信息。澳大利亚儿童的乳制品摄入量远低于建议量，并且随着年龄增长，其在能量摄入中所占的百分比会下降。2至16岁的儿童在每天首次进食时有乳制品的可能性平均是第二次进食时的2.3倍。对于在首次进食时食用了任何乳制品的儿童，其每日乳制品总摄入量比在首次进食时未食用乳制品的儿童高129%（95%置信区间为120%-138%）。在首次进食后当天剩余时间里，他们的乳制品摄入量也高出29%（95%置信区间为21%-37%）。年龄较小的群体、男性、在家或住所进食以及在上午6点至9点开始首次进食均与在首次进食时食用乳制品有关。增加澳大利亚儿童从乳制品及替代食品组摄入量的一个简单策略可能是确保每天的首次进食包含一种乳制品或营养等效物。
