Plan to assess total diet
Dietary assessment in MoBa – in pregnancy
• 340 questions, 40 groups of questions
• 255 foods and dishes
• 14 pages
Meltzer et al., “Methodologcial challenges when monitoring the diet of
pregnant women in a large study: experiences from the Norwegian Mother
and Child Cohort Study” MCN; 2008: 4:14-27
Validation study, MoBa FFQ
n=119, 4-d FD + biomarkers in blood and in 24-hurine + motion sensor
Validation study, MoBa FFQ
• Acceptable agreement between the FFQ and the FD
for all nutrients and major foods
• Biomarkers confirmed that the FFQ estimates were
valid for fruit, juice, vegetables, tea, milk/dairy foods,
protein, vitamin D, folate, iodine, n-3 fatty acids
• The MoBa FFQ provide valid estimates of nutrients
supplied by dietary supplements

dietary supplement

RESULTS
Birth weight (mean and 95%CI) by categories of total seafood intake in
62099 women in the Norwegian Mother and Child Cohort Study
Conclusion: a consistent increase in infant birth weight and head
circumference with increasing maternal seafood consumption, this
association was mainly driven by lean fish.
Brantsæter et al. Br J Nutr. 2011
Dietary assessment in MoBa – children
• 6 months: retrospective reporting
– Supplementation during the first week of life
– What kind of milk the baby had received at each
month since birth to estimate duration and
intensity of breastfeeding
– Weaning foods and at which month they were
introduced
– Dietary supplements supplied to the baby
Breastfeeding, MoBa women
Häggkvist et al. Public Health Nutr. 2010
Dietary assessment in MoBa – children
• Eighteen months (Q5):
– Breast milk after 6 months of age
– Selected foods, drinks and dietary supplements
• Three years (Q6), Five years (Q7)
– Selected foods, drinks and dietary supplements
The questions are not complete for assessing total diet
or to estimate intake of energy, nutrient or any daily
intakes quantitatively, only to study dietary patterns
and distinguish dietary behaviours
Future perspectives
To examine longitudinal dietary exposure in relation to
health outcomes for the child (weight gain/obesity,
developmental milestones, asthma/allergy, cognitive
development etc)
In utero
+
Breast milk
+
Weaning foods and
early diet
MoBa continues……
Two new questionnaires are planned:
• Q-12 years pre-puberty – mental health
• Q-14 years nutrition – to be completed by the
teenager

All questionnaires can be downloaded and are translated to
English.
