We are looking for a dietary assessment tool which gives a quantitative data for comparison between our sample results and literature recommendations.
We were thinking about 24h dietary recall but we couldn't have a comparable data.
Thank you
Dear Hind,
Do you mean you are looking for a dietary assessment tool in which you can compare your data with recommended intake per nutrient? If so, I think you should check WHO for recommendations or other national guidelines.
The dietary assessment tools that I can think of are mostly used to give the mean nutritional values of food products.
Kind regards,
Keshia
Dear Keshia,
Thank you for your interest. I'm looking for a assessment tool to have quantitative results compare to compare them with recommendations so we can say at the end if the enfant has or hasn't a good diet.
An assessment or an index that will answer to this question.
Best Regards,
Dear Hind,
Then I think assessment tool Nutri-Score is what you are looking for: https://www.foodwatch.org/en/news/2021/who-eu-wide-introduction-of-nutri-score-necessary/?cookieLevel=not-set .
This is used in Europe.
Kind regards,

Dear Keshia,
Thank you for your help, it seems an interesting tool. But I'm afraid that this tool gives the information by product and not by meal or by a day.
Best Regards,
Your questions are not clear so far as my concern 24h dietary recall is a difficult to monitor and get exact reading.
