Estimating Percent Meeting Fruit & Vegetable Recommendations from BRFSS data LV Moore, Kirsten Grimm, Sonia Kim, Kelley Scanlon BRFSS FV Screener (1994-2009) These next questions are about the foods you usually eat or drink. Please tell me how often you eat or drink each one, for example, twice a week, three times a month, and so forth. Remember, I am only interested in the foods you eat. Include all foods you eat, both at home and away from home. 1) How often do you drink fruit juices such as orange, grapefruit, or tomato? 2) Not counting juice, how often do you eat fruit? 3) How often do you eat green salad? 4) How often do you eat potatoes not including French fries, fried potatoes, or potato chips? 5) How often do you eat carrots? 6) Not counting carrots, potatoes, or salad, how many servings of vegetables do you usually eat? Revised FV Screener (2011-) During the past month, how many times per day, week or month did you [drink] or [eat] 1)…100% PURE fruit juices? Do not include fruit-flavored drinks with added sugar or fruit juice you made at home and added sugar to. Only include 100% juice. 2)…fruit? Count fresh, frozen, or canned fruit. 3)…cooked or canned beans, such as refried, baked, black, garbanzo beans, beans in soup, soybeans, edamame, tofu or lentils. Do NOT include long green beans. 4)…dark green vegetables for example broccoli or dark leafy greens including romaine, chard, collard greens or spinach? 5)…orange-colored vegetables such as sweet potatoes, pumpkin, winter squash, or carrots? 6)…OTHER vegetables? Examples of other vegetables include tomatoes, tomato juice or V-8 juice, corn, eggplant, peas, lettuce, cabbage, and white potatoes that are not fried such as baked or mashed potatoes. Healthy People – Food and Nutrition Consumption objectives Healthy People 2010 • ≥2 servings of fruit (target of 75%) • ≥3 servings of vegetables (target of 50%) Healthy People 2020 • Increase the contribution of fruits to the diets of the population aged 2 years and older from 0.5 cup equivalents per 1,000 calories to 0.9 cup equivalents per 1,000 calories. • Increase the variety and contribution of vegetables to the diets of the population aged 2 years and older from 0.8 cup equivalents per 1,000 calories to 1.1 cup equivalents per 1,000 calories. Proposed Fruit &Vegetable Indicators Median fruit intake (times/day) Median vegetable intake (times/day) Percent meeting minimum recommendations for fruit intake (age- & sex-specific) Percent meeting minimum recommendations for vegetable intake (age- & sex-specific) Proposed Fruit &Vegetable Indicators • Percent meeting minimum recommendations requires 2 parts – Developing linear equations to convert BRFSS times per day into cup equivalents – Comparing estimated cup equivalents against minimum fruit and vegetable intake recommendations based on Dietary Guidelines Part 1: Developing linear equations to convert BRFSS times per day into cup equivalents • NCI developed a protocol for converting times per day into cup equivalents* • Four steps – Develop a food coding scheme to aggregate 24 hr recall foods into food groups that parallel screener questions – Estimate mentions: # times each food group mentioned – Estimate portion sizes: median amount consumed, when a food group was eaten – Model cup equivalents by portion sizes x mentions to get the conversion equation *Available at http://appliedresearch.cancer.gov/surveys/chis/dietscreener/scoring.html NCI equation for converting times per day into cup equivalents • E(Fruits and Vegetables1/2) = β0 + β1(NFG1P1 + NFG2P2 + ... + NFGkPk)1/2 • Independent variable: mentions x portion sizes of food groups • Dependent variable: cup equivalents of fruits and vegetables from all sources • Where: – k = 6 mutually exclusive fruit and vegetable food groups (NCI: 100% fruit juice, Fruit, Salad, Fried potatoes, Other white potatoes, Dried beans, Other vegetables) – NFGk = number of times/mentions per day a participant consumed food group k – Pk = estimated median age- and sex-specific portion sizes for each food group k (cup equivalents) • E(Fruits and Vegetables1/2) = β0 + β1(NFG1P1 + NFG2P2 + ... + NFGkPk)1/2 – Estimates from NHANES and above equation – BRFSS times per day Recalculation Rationale • Portion sizes may have changed over time – NCI used 1994-96 Continuing Survey of Food Intakes of Individuals dietary recall data – DNPAO using 24 hour dietary recall data from 2003-2004 NHANES • 7 NCI food groups ≠ 2011 6 BRFSS questions • Need estimates for fruit alone and vegetable alone as well as combined • Portion sizes are age and sex specific but other important sociodemographic variation to consider (race/ethnicity, socioeconomic status, etc.) Step 1:Develop food coding scheme and estimate cup equivalents • Scheme must – Be consistent with BRFSS 2011 questions – Have extensive documentation/rationale for transparency • My Pyramid Equivalents Database (MPED) food groups – MPED translates the amounts of foods eaten in NHANES into the number of cup equivalents – 32 MyPyramid major groups and subgroups – extensively documented – correlate well with 2011 BRFSS items except for other vegetables Fruit and vegetable food records of participant 21005 (n=14/42;

Ex. fruit juice in canned fruit does not count towards total fruit juice Step 1:Develop food coding scheme • Each 7,174 different types of food NHANES participants report assigned 8 digit food code • 1st digit identifies one of 9 major food groups • Subsequent digits identify increasingly more specific subgroups including 1. milk and milk products 2. meat, poultry, fish, and mixtures – 5 fruit subgroups 3. eggs – 8 vegetable subgroups 4. legumes, nuts, and seeds – 4 legumes/nuts/seeds subgroups 5. grain products 6. fruits 7. vegetables 8. fats, oils, and salad dressings 9. sugars, sweets, and beverages • Mixtures disaggregated into single foods per standard recipes • Certain foods excluded from groups to make consistent with BRFSS screener • Baby foods • Dried fruit • Condiments • Fruits and vegetables on sandwiches (lettuce, tomato onion) Food coding scheme for aggregating foods from NHANES 2003-04 into BRFSS 2011 comparable categories 2011 BRFSS Question USDA FSRG variables 1.
