Food and nutrient intake of young children in New Zealand (2 years)
This project is hosted by the University of Otago.
Principal Investigator: Professor Rachael Taylor
The Young Foods New Zealand study will assess food intake and its impact on dental health in young children aged 6 months to 3.9 years in New Zealand in an observational, cross-sectional study of 300 Dunedin, Wellington and Auckland children. Height or length and weight will be measured to describe the study population. These data will be used to assess nutritional adequacy of young children in New Zealand.
