Nutrient intake estimated using the DCD for 128 kinds of dishes developed from 16 d dietary records in 126 men and 126 women.

Nutrient intake estimated using the Standard Table of Food Composition in Japan(36).

§

Nutrient intake estimated using the weight of each dish in the DCD.

Estimated nutrient intake calculated by adjusting nutrient content of a dish in the DCD by reported portion size of the dish in the dietary records. The calculation method was as follows: estimated nutrient intake from a dish adjusted by reported portion size = nutrient content of the dish in the DCD (g) × reported portion size of the dish in the dietary records (g)/standard portion size of the dish in the DCD (g).

The difference compared with values derived from the FCD was tested using the Wilcoxon signed-rank test.
