Table 2. Population distribution of nutrient (excluding supplements) intake status among yogurt consumers vs nonconsumers.

Nonconsumers Consumers


(n = 3016) (n = 3510)
Median energy contribution from yogurt (%kcal) 0 2.07
Prevalence of nutrient inadequacy
 Vitamin B1 24.8a 13.1
 Vitamin B2 11.2 3.4
 Vitamin B6 17.6 8.2
 Vitamin B12 6.1 2.4
 Calcium 72.5 52.9
 Folate 14.8 6.9
 Magnesium 65.5 39.1
 Vitamin C 25.6 14.1
 Zinc 27.8 12.9
 Phosphorus 4.1 1.2
 Vitamin A 36.7 18.0
 Vitamin D 93.4 88.6
 Vitamin E 93.2 90.0
 Iron 7.6 7.1
Percentage of population with usual intakes above AIb
 Potassium 4.7 11.4
 Fiber 10.1 22.4

P values were all less than .001 for the difference between groups(tests were conducted in GEE Models with Logit Link).

a

The percentage of population with inadequate nutrient intake for all such values.

b

Because EAR are not available for potassium and fiber to define nutrient inadequacy.
