All estimates are weighted means.

a

Significantly different from NHANES I at p≤0.001 (Women).

b

Significantly different from NHANES I at p≤0.001 (Men).

c

Significantly different from NHANES I at p≤0.05 (Men).

d

Significantly different from NHANES I at p≤0.05 (Women).

Note: TEE = estimated total energy expenditure; IOM = Institute of Medicine; rEI = reported energy intake; BMR = Basal Metabolic Rate calculated via Schofield predictive equation.

These values were calculated by subtracting the IOM TEE from the NHANES rEI. Negative values indicate the kilocalorie-per-day (kcal/day) value of underreporting.
