TABLE 3.

Specificity and sensitivity of the δ¹³C isotope-based method in discriminating low added sugar consumers from high added sugar consumers (n = 106, Southwest Virginian adults)1

Self-reported added sugar intakes, n
Low High
Isotope-based estimate of added sugar intake, n Low 36 22
High 23 25
