Note: beta is the difference in each outcome between those who have moved between non-school lunch and school lunch and those who have continued consuming the same lunch type, adjusted for sex, age, parental education level, dietary misreporting at both time points, food/nutrient consumption at baseline and with school attended included as a level 2 variable.
