Sources

Dietary data originate from three sources: 

  1. a 7-day food diary (“Menybok”)
  2. a 168-item semi quantitative  diet history questionnaire  (“Kosthistoria”)
  3. a 45-60 minutes diet history interview. 

The methodology combined a “current diet” method (food diary) with a “usual diet” method (diet history questionnaire).

Data editing

The food information was entered into the data base using an interactive computer software KOSTSVAR, which guided the interviewer through a system of ”recipe identifiers”, particularly useful for identifying preparation methods and ingredients in mixed dishes. The food intake data were converted into nutrient intake data by the combined use of the interactive computer software, and the Swedish Food Database PC KOST2 of the Swedish National Food Administration (Livsmedelsverket).
