Anding, Jenna D.; Suminski, Richard R.; Boss, Linda
Journal of American College Health, v49 n4 p167-71 Jan 2001
Surveyed the diet, exercise, and health habits of female college students, calculating body mass index, assessing physical activity, and estimating food and nutrient intake. Overall, no participants had adopted all of the Dietary Guidelines for Americans. Diets were nutritionally adequate but exceeded national recommendations for fat, sugar, and sodium. Nearly three quarters had sedentary lifestyles, and 25 percent were overweight. (SM)
