Added sugar, g	72.0 (54.6)	74.9 (48.7)	.371

Percentage of total calories from solid fats and added sugarsc	26.7 (6.1)	26.4 (6.1)	.74
Percentage of total calories from saturated fatd	12.2 (1.9)	11.8 (1.9)	.062

Note. MI= minimal intervention. The sample size was n = 275. Mean gestation was 18.6 weeks.

^aP value of Student’s t-test; all nutrient intakes (except for percentage of calories from saturated fat) were log-transformed to reduce skewness.

^bPercentage of total calories from added sugar = [ (added sugar (g) × 4)/total calories ] x 100.³⁹

^cPercentage of total calories from solid fats and added sugars = {[(saturated fat [g] × 9) + (transfat [g] × 9) + (added sugar [g] × 4)]/total calories} x 100.³⁹

^dPercent of total calories from saturated fat = [(saturated fat [g] × 9)/total calories] x 100.³⁹
