Total n = 286: Pacific n = 125, NZ European n = 161; Enterotype 1: n = 146 (Pacific n = 57, NZ European n = 89); Enterotype 2: n = 70 (Pacific n = 59, NZ European n = 11); Enterotype 3: n = 70 (Pacific n = 9, NZ European n = 61). aUnadjusted models bModels adjusted for NZDep2013, Age, ethnicity, and energy intake Odds ratio (bolded when statistically significant) represent the change in the outcome per 1 serving size of change in food group intake (presented as the g/serve equivalent e.g., 250 mL of standard cow milk = 258 g). Comparisons focus on the likelihood of being in 1 enterotype compared to both other enterotypes
