Journal ArticleDOI
Low whole grain intake in the UK: results from the National Diet and Nutrition Survey rolling programme 2008-11
TL;DR: Favourable pricing with increased availability of whole-grain foods and education may help to increase whole grain intake in countries without whole- grain recommendations, and Teenagers and younger adults may need targeting to help increase whole Grain consumption.
Journal ArticleDOI
Whole grain intake and its association with intakes of other foods, nutrients and markers of health in the National Diet and Nutrition Survey rolling programme 2008-11.
TL;DR: Nutrient intakes in consumers compared with non-consumers were closer to dietary reference values, such as higher intakes of fibre, Mg and Fe, and lower intakes of Na, suggesting that higher intake of whole grain is associated with improved diet quality.
Journal ArticleDOI
Whole grain intake in the UK remains low: results from the National Diet and Nutrition Survey rolling programme years 1, 2 and 3
TL;DR: The aim of this study was to describe the whole grain intake in the most current dietary assessment of the UK, The National Diet and Nutrition Survey (NDNS) 2008-11, which is a representative dietary survey of households in the UK.
Journal ArticleDOI
Whole grain intake is associated with intakes of other foods and nutrients and some markers of health in the National Diet and Nutrition Survey rolling programme years 1, 2 and 3
TL;DR: In this population increased whole grain intake was positively associated with white blood cell count, C-reactive protein and anthropometric measures, but not with other markers of health, and nutrient intakes of wholegrain consumers compared with the non-consumers were closer to dietary reference values, suggesting that increasing whole grain Intake is associated with improved diet quality.
