Overview

Cross-sectional assessment reveals persistent micronutrient inadequacies in an adult cohort, suggesting critical intervention need.

Key Points

  • This research aims to explore the relationship between high-energy diets and systemic micronutrient inadequacies in adults.
  • Cross-sectional study involving 3267 adults using the digital platform "NIAP".
  • Dietary records spanning 3–7 days were analyzed with an algorithm accounting for nutrient retention during cooking.
  • Comparison of nutrient profiles between individuals with normal body mass index and those with obesity.
  • 99.9% of participants had at least one micronutrient inadequacy, with mean deficits of −77.3% for vitamin D and −59.2% for Omega-3.
  • 61.5% exhibited 10 or more simultaneous intake shortfalls, confirmed even after accounting for under-reporters.
  • Obesity group had higher intake of energy and saturated fats but lower macronutrient density, with a significant Na:K ratio difference of 1.19 versus 1.04 (p < 0.001).
