PHD, planetary health diet; DG, diet gap; N.A., not available. aAverage macronutrient intake and possible range of each food group for the 2,500 kcal/day in the PHD was converted by a total energy intake of 1,915 kcal/day in the National Health and Nutrition Survey 2019. bFood groups in the Japan National Health and Nutrition Survey as referenced by the National Health and Nutrition Survey. cAverage (standard deviation) dietary intake was referenced by the NHNS 2019. dAverage (standard deviation) was 281 (176) in vegetables, 18 (31) in mushrooms, 11 (21) in seaweeds, 1.1 (3.4) in margarine, 8.9 (9.0) in vegetable oils, 1.2 (3.4) in butter, and 0.2 (1.3) in animal fats. eDG (%) = (NHNS dietary intake (g/day)/the PHD macronutrient intake (g/day)) * 100.
