GHG, Greenhouse gas. Models are adjusted on sex, age, and energy intake.

a

Adjusted mean were obtained with ANOVA models by level of organic food contribution in the diet. P-trend across the provegetarian score quintile are all < 0.0001 and were obtained with linear contrast test by level of organic food contribution in the diet.

b

P for interaction between provegetarian score quintiles and the level contribution of organic food to the diet.

c

P-linear trend of Q*v.Q1 of provegetarian score. It reflects the linearity of the difference between the 1st and the others quintiles of provegetarian score across the level of organic consumption.
