Self-reported intake and availability of fruits and vegetables has been shown to have low reliability for both children and adults. One solution is to measure polyphenols, which are naturally occurring compounds found mainly in fruits and vegetables. Derivatives of polyphenols can be measured using urinary metabolite analysis. We will compare polyphenol concentrations and parent-reported child consumption of fruits and vegetables to validate this approach in children.
