TL;DR: To accurately estimate usual dietary sodium at the individual level, at least 3 non‐consecutive complete 24‐hour urine collections obtained over a series of days that reflect the usual short‐term variations in dietary pattern were recommended.
Journal ArticleDOI
Change in Trans Fatty Acid Content of Fast-Food Purchases Associated With New York City's Restaurant Regulation: A Pre–Post Study
TL;DR: The introduction of a local restaurant regulation in New York City was associated with a substantial and statistically significant decrease in the trans fat content of purchases at fast-food chains, without a commensurate increase in saturated fat.
