The PANDiet score, expressed as the average of an adequacy subscore (accounting for 28 nutrients), and a moderation subscore (accounting for six nutrients, plus 12 potential penalty values). DHA and EPA + DHA are weighted by ½ as DHA is counted twice. Niacin equivalents were calculated as the sum of dietary niacin and 1/60 dietary tryptophan. The upper reference value for sugars excludes lactose. The tolerable upper intake limit for vitamin A concerns retinol only. ALA, Alpha Linolenic Acid. DHA, Docosahexaenoic Acid. EIEA, Energy Intake Excluding Alcohol. EPA, Eicosapentaenoic acid. LA, Linoleic Acid. NA, Niacin Equivalent. SFA, Saturated Fatty Acid.
