Serum and Erythrocyte Biomarkers of Nutrient Status Correlate with Short-Term Α-Carotene, Β-Carotene, Folate, and Vegetable Intakes Estimated by Food Frequency Questionnaire in Military Recruits.

Abstract：

OBJECTIVE:Food frequency questionnaires (FFQs) estimate habitual dietary intake and require evaluation in populations of interest in order to determine accuracy. Thus, the purpose of this study was to determine agreement between circulating biomarkers and FFQ estimated dietary intake in a military population consuming all meals in a dining facility over 12 weeks. METHODS:2014 Block FFQs were administered and fasted blood samples were drawn to assess nutritional biomarkers at the end of a 12-week training period in male (n = 141) and female (n = 125) Marine recruits undergoing initial military training. FFQ estimates of alpha- and beta-carotene, folate, and fruit and vegetable intake and circulating concentrations of serum alpha- and beta-carotene and serum and erythrocyte folate were measured. Partial correlations were used in the full model, and weighted kappa coefficients were used to determine agreement between ranking quartiles of dietary intake estimates with corresponding biomarker status quartiles. RESULTS:Serum and dietary intake of alpha-carotene were positively associated in males (p = 0.009) and females (p < 0.001), as was serum and intake of beta-carotene (males, p = 0.002; females, p < 0.001). Alpha-carotene was positively associated with vegetable intake in males (p = 0.02) and beta-carotene with vegetable intake in females (p = 0.003). Serum folate in males (p = 0.002) and erythrocyte folate in females (p = 0.02) were associated with dietary folate intake. In females, the relationships between biomarker and dietary estimates yielded significant kappa coefficients. In males, a significant kappa coefficient was observed for erythrocyte folate and dietary intake of folate only. The kappa coefficient for serum and estimated intake of beta-carotene was not significant in males. CONCLUSION:Twelve-week habitual intake of alpha-and beta-carotene and folate were correlated with circulating biomarkers in a military training population. The 2014 Block FFQ was able to accurately rank females into quartiles of nutrient status based on intake, while males were ranked less accurately than females.
