Proportion (%) of children consuming each type of beverage by age group (n = 2740) ^1,2,3,4,5. ¹ Error bars represent ± 1 SE. Those bolded in red are statistically unreliable, relative standard error ≥30% [24]; ² Chi-square test to assess difference in proportions, * p < 0.01, ** p < 0.001. Where significant, logistic regression with Bonferroni adjustment for multiple comparisons was used to assess differences between sub-groups; ^a 0–5.9 months vs. 6.0–11.9 months p < 0.05; ^b 0–5.9 months vs. 12.0–23.9 months p < 0.05; ^c 6.0–11.9 months vs. 12.0–23.9 months p < 0.05; ³ As only n = 1 consumer of milk in 0–5.9 months, sub-group differences only assessed between 6.0–11.9 months and 12.0–23.9 months; ⁴ As n = 0 consumers in 0–5.9 months for flavoured milk, dairy drinks and substitutes, diet beverages and flavoured or enhanced water, differences in intake only assessed in 6.0–11.9 months and 12.0–23.9 months; ⁵ On the day of the 24-h dietary recall there were 2544 instances of plain water consumed across 1526 participants. n = 1700 (66.8%) of these instances were consumed in isolation, n = 650 (25.6%) were consumed as an addition to a beverage (e.g., water added to fruit juice), 7.3% instances were combined as an addition to cereal (e.g., dry, instant, rice cereal, baby food) and 0.3% were consumed with other food additions (e.g., added to fruit puree).
