BMI Classifications of Individuals Reporting 100% FJ Consumption, based on the 2013–2014 U.S. NHANES, 2012–2014 UK NDNS, and 2008–2009 POF. It should be noted that for the UK NDNS, children with a BMI <85th percentile are coded as “1”; therefore, it is not possible to distinguish the proportion of children who are underweight (typically defined as a BMI <5th percentile), as they are captured collectively with children who are normal weight. “NW” indicates “normal weight”; “OB” indicates “obese”; “OW” indicates “overweight”; and “UW” indicates “underweight”; bolded values represent the combinations used in the analyses (underweight or normal weight versus overweight or obese).
