N = 1494 *, except for salty snacks , n = 1268. Abbreviations: OR, odds ratio (odds for being allocated in the group that follows recommendations); 95% CI, 95% confidence interval; HA, home availability; T0, baseline period, T1, follow-up period, CI, confidence intervals; Ref, reference category. Multilevel logistic regression was adjusted for BMI at T0 and T1, sex, age, parental education, and center. Categories of FPP indicate a change in the use of them over time. All models of the multilevel logistic regression include random effects (country and group) to account for the study design. Ref. for energy-dense/nutrient-poor foods: one serving or less per week for each food item.
