Associations between fruit juice and milk consumption and change in BMI in a large prospective cohort of US adolescents and preadolescents

Pediatric Obesity Mar 16, 2021

Sakaki JR, Li J, Gao S, et al. - Researchers intended to determine if there is an association between fruit juice and milk intakes and body mass index (BMI) change among preadolescents/adolescents. Candidates, aged 9 to 16 years, from the Growing Up Today Study II completed surveys including validated food frequency questionnaires in 2004, 2006 and 2008. Using multiple linear regression, the contributions of one serving of juice or milk to total energy intake and 2‐year change in BMI were assessed. Missing values for BMI were imputed using a multiple imputation approach, after which data from 8,173 candidates and 13,717 2‐year interval observations have been analyzed. Orange juice was found to be inversely linked to a 2-year shift in BMI among preadolescent/adolescent girls but not boys, and no major associations were found with other juices or milk in either gender.
