Abstract

This study examined differences in dietary intake on weekdays versus weekends in Canada ( n = 34 402) and found that energy intake was 62 ± 23 kcal higher, and dietary quality was slightly lower on weekends ( p < 0.05). After energy adjustment, Canadians consumed 66% more alcohol, 10% more cholesterol, and significantly lower intakes of carbohydrates, protein, and most micronutrients (ranging from 2.0%-6.9% lower) on weekends. Findings suggest that Canadians consume a slightly less favourable nutrient profile and poorer dietary quality on weekends. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
