The objective of the dietary interview component is to obtain detailed dietary intake information from NHANES participants. The dietary intake data are used to estimate the types and amounts of foods and beverages consumed during the 24-hour period prior to the interview (midnight to midnight), and to estimate intakes of energy, nutrients, and other food components from those foods and beverages. Beginning in 2005-2006, water drunk throughout the day is collected as part of the 24-hour dietary recall (see more details in the “What’s New with the 2005-2006 WWEIA Release” section). Following the dietary recall, participants are asked questions on salt use, whether the person’s intake on the previous day was usual or unusual, and whether the respondent is on any type of special diet. Survey participants 1 year or older were asked questions on frequency of fish and shellfish consumed during the past 30 days.
The dietary interview component, called What We Eat in America (WWEIA), is conducted as a partnership between the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) and the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS). Under this partnership, DHHS’ National Center for Health Statistics (NCHS) is responsible for the sample design and data collection and USDA’s Food Surveys Research Group (FSRG) is responsible for the dietary data collection methodology, maintenance of the databases used to code and process the data, and data review and processing.
All NHANES examinees are eligible for two 24-hour dietary recall interviews. The first dietary recall interview is collected in-person in the Mobile Examination Center (MEC) and the second interview is collected by telephone 3 to 10 days later.
As in previous years, two types of dietary intake data are available for the 2005-2006 survey cycle - Individual Foods files and Total Nutrient Intakes files. Each of these dietary intake data files is accompanied by a PDF file containing its documentation, codebook, and frequencies. The structure of the PDF file for the 2005-2006 dietary intake data files has been modified slightly from earlier survey years so that the documentation section of the file for each of the two types of dietary intake data files is identical.
What’s New with the 2005-2006 WWEIA Release: One of the major changes to this release is that beginning with the 2005-2006 WWEIA, the consumption of all types of water (including tap and bottled water, plain and carbonated, sweetened and unsweetened water) was collected during the 24-hour recall. As a result, each report of water intake throughout the day was collected and coded as a separate food item. These water intake items now appear in the Individual Foods file with food codes designating the type of water. As with other foods, a variable is present to indicate if the water was consumed at home or away. For bottled waters, a variable is present indicating where the water was obtained. For tap water, the variables DR1TWS and DR2TWS in the Total Nutrient Intake files indicate the main source of tap water drunk by the participant. In 2003-2004, only sweetened bottled waters were collected during the 24-hour recall and included in the Individual Foods file. Information on daily intake of non-sweetened waters (total plain water, total tap water and the source of tap water, total bottled water, and plain carbonated water) were collected after the 24-hour dietary recall and included in the Total Nutrient Intake file for 2003-2004. In 2005-2006, summary water variables that are compatible with previous data cycles are included in the Total Nutrient Intake files with the exception of plain carbonated water. These water totals (DR1_320Z, DR2_320Z, DR1_330Z, DR2_330Z, DR1BWATZ and DR2BWATZ) represent total water consumed as a beverage by itself. Therefore, they do not include the moisture content of foods and beverages (such as watermelon, coffee, lettuce) that are available for each food reported in the Individual Foods files.
The table in Appendix 1 summarizes additional changes among the 3 latest cycles of data collection.
Dietary Interview Data Files: Four data files were produced from the information collected in the dietary interview: two Individual Foods files and two Total Nutrient Intake files. Each file includes one day of intake data. The number “1” or “2” in the file name identifies the day (and mode) of the interview: 1 = first day (in-person), 2 = second day (phone). File names are the following:
| File | Day 1 | Day 2 |
|---|---|---|
| Individual Foods File | DRIFF_D | DR2IFF_D |
| TotalNutrient Intakes File | DR1TOT_D | DR2TOT_D |
The nutrient amounts in these files reflect only nutrients obtained from foods, beverages, and water including tap and bottled water. They do not include nutrients obtained from dietary supplements, antacids, or medications.
Individual Foods Files (DR1IFF_D and DR2IFF_D): Detailed information about the types and amounts of individual foods reported by each participant, as well as amounts of nutrients from each food are included in the Individual Foods files. The names for both Day 1 and Day 2 variables are listed in Appendix 2.
Two supporting files are also included with the Individual Foods files: the Food Code Description file (DRXFCD_D) and the Modification Code Description file (DRXMCD_D). The DRXFCD_D file includes abbreviated descriptions (up to 60 characters) and complete descriptions (up to 200 characters) associated with each USDA food code identified in the Individual Foods files. The DRXMCD_D file includes descriptions (up to 200 characters) associated with each modification code identified in the Individual Foods files. Modification codes represent adjustments to predefined recipe ingredients that reflect more closely the food as described by the respondent. Appendix 3 provides SAS code examples that may be used to link the food code or the modification code description to the Individual Foods file.
The Individual Foods files include, for each interview day, one record for each food consumed by a survey participant. Each food record is sequentially numbered and contains the information listed below:
Total Nutrient Intakes Files (DR1TOT_D and DR2TOT_D): For each participant, daily total energy and nutrient intakes from foods and beverages and whether the amount of food consumed was usual, much more than usual, or much less than usual are included in the Total Nutrient Intakes files. The Day 1 file also includes information on salt use in cooking and at the table; whether the participant is currently on any kind of diet to lose weight or for other health-related reason and, if so, the type of diet; and for participants 1 year or older, information on frequency of fish and shellfish consumption. The names for both Day 1 and Day 2 variables are listed in Appendix 5.
The Total Nutrient Intakes files provide a summary record of total nutrient intakes for each individual. Each total intake record contains the following information:
All NHANES examinees are eligible for the dietary interview component. However, only examinees one year or older are eligible for the frequency of fish and shellfish consumption questions following the 24-hour recall.
The examination protocol and data collection methods are fully documented in the NHANES dietary interviewers procedures manuals (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey MEC In-Person Dietary Interviewers Procedure Manual, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey Phone Follow-Up Dietary Interviewer Procedure Manual).
Interviews were conducted for survey participants less than six years of age with a proxy who was generally the person most knowledgeable about the survey participant’s intake. With children ages 6 to 11, the interviews were conducted with the child and the assistance of an adult familiar with the child’s intake. Dietary interviews were conducted in English and Spanish. Translators were used to conduct interviews in other languages.
The in-person interview was conducted in a private room in the NHANES mobile examination center (MEC). A set of measuring guides (various glasses, bowls, mugs, drink boxes and bottles, household spoons, measuring cups and spoons, a ruler, thickness sticks, bean bags, and circles) was available in the MEC dietary interview room for the participant to use for reporting amounts of foods (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey Measuring Guides for the Dietary Recall Interview). Upon completion of the in-person interview, participants were given measuring cups, spoons, a ruler, and a food model booklet, which contained two-dimensional drawings of the various measuring guides available in the MEC, to use for reporting food amounts during the telephone interview. Telephone dietary interviews were collected 3 to 10 days following the MEC dietary interview but not on the same day of the week as the MEC interview. Any participant who did not have a telephone was given a toll-free number to call so that the recall could be conducted.
What We Eat in America data were collected using USDA’s dietary data collection instrument, the Automated Multiple Pass Method (AMPM) (Agricultural Research Service, USDA Automated Multiple-Pass Method for Dietary Recalls). The AMPM was designed to provide an efficient and accurate means of collecting intakes for large-scale national surveys. The AMPM is a fully computerized recall method that uses a 5-step interview outlined below:
The AMPM includes an extensive compilation of standardized food-specific questions and possible response options. Routing of questions is based on previous responses. The AMPM is updated yearly to reflect the changing food supply and to address research needs from the data user community. Additional information about the AMPM is provided in Raper et al. (Raper, 2004).
FSRG conducted the AMPM Validation Study to evaluate the accuracy of this dietary intake method. Completed in 2004, this extensive research project included 524 healthy, weight-stable volunteers, aged 30-69 years. The accuracy of the AMPM was evaluated by comparing reported energy intake (EI) to total energy expenditure (TEE) using the doubly labeled water technique (Moshfegh). Among the findings were that EI compared to TEE was under-reported by 11% overall and by less than 3% for normal weight subjects with body mass index (BMI) <25.
Other studies have also reported on the validity of the AMPM to measure group energy intake (EI). Blanton reported that EI was not significantly different from TEE for a sample of 20 adult females (Blanton, 2006). Rumpler and colleagues found that mean EIs were accurately reported for a sample of 12 adult males (Rumpler, 2008).

All dietary interviewers were required to complete an intensive one-week training course and to conduct supervised practice interviews before working independently in the field. Retraining sessions were conducted annually to reinforce the proper protocols and technique.
Interviewers were monitored throughout the data collection period. Monitoring consisted of the following:
Interview data files were sent electronically from the field and were imported into Survey Net, a computer-assisted food coding and data management system developed by USDA (Raper, 2004).
USDA's Food and Nutrient Database for Dietary Studies, 3.0 (FNDDS 3.0), was used for processing the 2005-2006 intakes. The FNDDS includes comprehensive information that can be used to code individual foods and portion sizes reported by participants and also includes nutrient values for calculating nutrient intakes. The underlying nutrient values for FNDDS 3.0 were based on values in the USDA National Nutrient Database for Standard Reference, release 20, produced by USDA’s Nutrient Data Lab (Agricultural Research Service, USDA National Nutrient Database for Standard Reference, Release 20). FNDDS values are updated for every 2-year WWEIA, NHANES release cycle. FNDDS 3.0 corresponds with WWEIA 2005-2006. Additional information about the FNDDS and related tools is available on the Food Surveys Research Group website (Raper, 2004, Agricultural Research Service, USDA Food and Nutrient Database for Dietary Studies 3.0, Anand, 2006, Bodner-Montville, 2006, Ahuja, 2008).
Coders were required to pass a certification test after the initial training. They were routinely monitored to ensure the quality and completeness of their work. Approximately 10 percent of the coder's work was randomly selected to be independently coded by another coder. Results from the two codings were compared and adjudicated, if necessary.
After intake data were coded, various types of reviews were conducted to ensure the quality of the data. An overview of quality assurance procedures conducted during the data processing stage is available in Anand, et al. (Anand, 2006). Examples of reviews include the following:
During data processing, the following edits were made to ensure the logical consistency and analytic usefulness of the data:
Sodium values for home-prepared foods are based on the sodium values of recipe ingredients in the FNDDS. In some cases, the amount of salt in recipes was reduced or eliminated if the participant answered dietary interview questions about salt use in cooking or preparing foods with the response "occasionally", "rarely” or “never," respectively.
During the food coding process, predefined recipes for some food mixtures are modified to match more closely the food as described by the respondent. Nutrients are modified by substituting ingredients in a predefined recipe for the mixture. An example of a modified recipe is an egg fried in butter instead of margarine. Each modification is assigned a unique 6-digit identification number. Recipe modification numbers appear in the variable DR1MC in the DR1IFF_D file and in the variable DR2MC in the DR2IFF_D file. Descriptions for each modification are provided in a separate file called DRXMCD.
Each Individual Foods file (Day 1 and Day 2) is comprised of food records. For most survey participants, there are multiple records in each file. For each Total Nutrient Intakes file (Day 1 and Day 2) there is one record for each participant. These files can be linked with other NHANES files by the respondent sequence number (SEQN).
Variable names: For data collected on both Day 1 and Day 2, variable names are differentiated by having the number “1” or “2” in the third position of the variable name to identify the collection day. For example, the USDA food code variable (in the Individual Foods File), which identifies the food reported by the participant, is named DR1IFDCD in the Day 1 file and DR2IFDCD in the Day 2 file. Appendices 2 and 5 list the Day 1 and Day 2 variable names for the Individual Foods file and the Total Nutrient Intakes file, respectively.
Names for the following variables are the same for both days in the Individual Foods file and the Total Nutrient Intakes file:
| Day 1 and Day 2 Variable Name | Label |
|---|---|
| SEQN | Respondent sequence number |
| WTDRD1 | Dietary day one sample weight |
| WTDR2D | Dietary two-day sample weight |
| DRABF | Breast-fed infant (either day) |
| DRDINT | Number of days of intake |
Number of days of intake: Because two days of data are included in the 2005-2006 release, a variable has been included to indicate the number of days of intake available for each participant. The variable name is DRDINT.
Dietary recall status code: A status code (DR1DRSTZ or DR2DRSTZ) is used in both the Individual Foods and Total Nutrient Intake files to indicate the quality and completeness of a survey participant's response to the dietary recall section. The codes are the following:
1 = Reliable and met the minimum criteria
For individuals with a code 1, all relevant variables associated with the 24-hour dietary recall contain a value.
2 = Not reliable or did not meet the minimum criteria
Individuals with a code 2 have incomplete records. No data on total nutrient intakes and the total number of foods reported are provided for these cases. These individuals have no records in the Individual Foods files.
3 [Code 3 is not included in the current datasets. It was only used for data from the 1999-2000 survey cycle.]
4 = Reported consuming breast milk
For infants and children who consumed human milk, there is a record in the Individual Foods files for each report of human milk. However, because amounts of human milk intake are not quantified, these records contain missing values for the amount consumed and for the amounts of energy and nutrients from human milk. Also, records of human milk have a missing value for the food source variable (DR1FS, DR2FS) and the eaten at home variable (DR1_040Z, DR2_040Z) in the Individual Foods files. Records for any other foods and beverages consumed by breast-fed infants and children are included in the Individual Foods files along with their amounts and nutrient information. Because of the missing nutrient information for human milk, no total nutrient intakes (contained in the Total Nutrient Intakes files) were computed for participants with a code 4.
A variable that identifies breast-fed children, DRABF, is included. This variable has a code of 1 if a child consumed breast milk in either intake day.
5 = Not done
This code is assigned when the dietary recall section of the interview did not take place due to various reasons (such as arrived late/left early, refusal, illness, emergency, or equipment failure). These individuals have no records in the Individual Foods files. These individuals have a record in the Total Nutrients file with values only for the following variables: the respondent sequence number (SEQN), the dietary recall status code (DR1DRSTZ or DR2DRSTZ) and for participants one year or older, the fish and shellfish questions in the DR1TOT_D file (DRD340, DRD350A-K, DRD350AQ-JQ, DRD360, DRD370A-V, and DRD370AQ-UQ)
Although there are four possible values, only codes 1 and 4 appear in the Individual Foods file. In addition to the status code described above, the variable DR1_300 and DR2_300 in the Total Nutrients file, denotes the participant's assessment of whether the amount of food he/she consumed on the recall day was usual, much more than usual, or much less than usual.
Participants who reported consuming only water: In 2001-2002 and 2003-2004, individuals who reported consuming only water had no records in the Individual Foods file for that specific day. Their dietary recall status variable for the day was coded as “1” (complete and reliable) in the Total Nutrients file, and the total number of foods and all total nutrient intake variables were coded as “0”. Values were present for other variables collected during the dietary recall.
In 2005-2006, information on all waters were collected during the 24-hour recall and reported in the Individual Foods file, including tap water and bottled water. Therefore, records are now included in the Individual Foods file for participants who consumed only water. There are 3 such individuals in the 2005-2006 datasets. Their dietary recall status variable for the day is coded as “1” (complete and reliable) in the Total Nutrients file and the total number of foods is coded based on how many times water was reported. There are 5 nutrients for the tap water and plain bottled water codes that have values greater than zero - calcium, magnesium, sodium, zinc, and copper. Individuals with just water intake and no food intake will have zero energy intake for the day. Depending on the type of analysis, these individuals may need to be excluded from the analysis.
Food source: The source of each food (where it was obtained, e.g., from a store, fast food restaurant, cafeteria) is included with the 2005-2006 release as it was for 2003-2004. The variable names are DR1FS and DR2FS and are located in the Individual Foods file. Food source information was also collected in 2002, but was not publicly released because of confidentiality issues concerning single-year data. For 2005-2006, a food source for fundraiser sales has been added to reflect a frequently reported response in the “other, specify” field; its food source code number is 26. The code descriptions for this variable are:
| Code | Description |
|---|---|
| 1 | Store |
| 2 | Restaurant with waiter/waitress |
| 3 | Restaurant fast food/pizza |
| 4 | Bar/tavern/lounge |
| 5 | Restaurant, no additional information |
| 6 | Cafeteria not at school |
| 7 | Cafeteria at school |
| 8 | Child care center |
| 9 | Family/adult day care center |
| 10 | Soup kitchen/shelter/food pantry facility |
| 11 | Meals on Wheels |
| 12 | Community food program – other |
| 13 | Community program, no additional information |
| 14 | Vending machine |
| 15 | Common coffee pot or snack tray |
| 16 | From someone else/gift |
| 17 | Mail order purchase |
| 18 | Residential dining facility |
| 19 | Grown or caught by you or someone you know |
| 20 | Fish caught by you or someone you know |
| 24 | Sport, recreation, or entertainment |
| 25 | Street vendor, vending truck |
| 26 | Fundraiser sales |
| 91 | Other, specify |
Eating occasion: The variables DR1_030Z and DR2_030Z are located in the Individual Foods file. The code descriptions for the eating occasion variables are shown in the table below.
| Code | Description |
|---|---|
| 1 | Breakfast |
| 2 | Lunch |
| 3 | Dinner |
| 4 | Supper |
| 5 | Brunch |
| 6 | Snack |
| 7 | Drink |
| 8 | Infant feeding |
| 9 | Extended consumption |
| 10 | Desayuno |
| 11 | Almuerzo |
| 12 | Comida |
| 13 | Merienda |
| 14 | Cena |
| 15 | Entre comida |
| 16 | Botana |
| 17 | Bocadillo |
| 18 | Tentempie |
| 19 | Bebida |
| 91 | Other |
Eating occasion is designated by the respondent. During the interview, a list of eating occasion names is available to the respondent for reference. However, eating occasion names are not defined for the respondent and the interpretation may differ from one person to another.
Combination foods: Foods that are eaten in combination with other foods, such as cereal with milk, are identified by a combination food type (DR1CCMTX) and a combination food number (DR1CCMNM). They are located in the Individual Foods file. About half of the foods reported in 2005-2006 were consumed in combination with other foods. The code descriptions for this variable are the following:
| Code | Description |
|---|---|
| 0 | Non-combination food |
| 1 | Beverage w/ additions |
| 2 | Cereal w/ additions |
| 3 | Bread/baked prod w/ additions |
| 4 | Salad |
| 5 | Sandwiches |
| 6 | Soup |
| 7 | Frozen meals |
| 8 | Ice cream/frozen yogurt w/ additions |
| 9 | Dried beans and vegetable w/ additions |
| 10 | Fruit w/ additions |
| 11 | Tortilla products |
| 12 | Meat, poultry, fish |
| 13 | Lunchables® |
| 14 | Chips w/ additions |
| 90 | Other mixtures |
Special diet: Information on whether the participant is currently on any kind of diet to lose weight or for other health-related reason and, if so, the type of diet, is included. The variable DRQSDIET identifies whether a participant is on a special diet. The variables DRQSDT1 through DRQSDT8 and DRQSDT91 identify the type of diet(s) that the participant is following. These variables can be found in the Total Nutrient Intakes file.
Note: A participant could report more than one type of diet, and all the responses were recorded. The variable DRQSDT1 denotes the type of diet the participant followed specifically for weight loss purposes, including a variety of low calorie diets, low carbohydrate diets, and/or high protein diets. If the participant reported being on a high protein diet for the purpose of gaining weight or muscle building instead of weight loss, the response was coded in variable DRQSDT8 (Weight gain/Muscle building diet).
Sample weights for dietary intake data: The NHANES participants were selected on the basis of a national probability design. In order to increase the number of participants for specific demographic groups, a multi-stage, unequal probability of selection design was implemented. The NHANES oversamples African Americans, Mexican Americans, low income persons, adolescents 12-19 years, and persons 60 years and older. Sample weights are constructed that encompass the unequal probabilities of selection, as well as adjustments for non-participation by selected sample persons. In order to produce national, representative estimates, the appropriate sample weights must be used.
For the 2005-2006 NHANES, there were 12,862 persons selected; of these 9950 were considered respondents to the MEC examination and data collection. However, only 9349 of the MEC respondents provided complete dietary intakes for Day 1. Furthermore, of those providing the Day 1 data, only 8429 provided complete dietary intakes for Day 2.
Most analyses of NHANES data use data collected in the MEC and the variable WTMEC2YR should be used for the sample weights. However, for the WWEIA dietary data, different sample weights are recommended for analysis. Although attempts are made to schedule MEC exams uniformly throughout the week, proportionally more exams occur on weekend days than on weekdays. Because food intake can vary by day of the week, use of the MEC weights would disproportionately represent intakes on weekends.
A set of weights WTDRD1 is provided that should be used when an analysis uses the Day 1 dietary recall data (either alone or when Day 1 nutrient data are used in conjunction with MEC data). The set of weights WTDRD1 is applicable to the 9349 respondents with Day 1 data. Day 1 weights were constructed by taking the MEC sample weights (WTMEC2YR) and further adjusting for (a) the additional non-response and (b) the differential allocation by day of the week for the dietary intake data collection. These Day 1 weights are more variable than the MEC weights, and the sample size is smaller, so estimated standard errors using Day 1 data and Day 1 weights are larger than standard errors for similar estimates based on MEC weights.
When analysis is based on both days of dietary intake, only 8429 sample persons have valid data. The NHANES protocol requires an attempt to collect the second day of dietary data at least 3 days after the first day, but the actual number of days between the two interviews is variable. A set of adjusted weights, WTDR2D, is to be used only when analysis uses both Day 1 and Day 2 dietary data. This two-day weight was constructed for the 8429 respondents by taking the Day 1 weights (WTDRD1) and further adjusting for (a) the additional non-response for the second recall and (b) for the proportion of weekend-weekday combinations of Day 1 and Day 2 recalls.
Note that all sample weights are person-level weights and each set of dietary weights should sum to the same population control total as the MEC weights (WTMEC2YR). In addition, the MEC weights (WTMEC2YR) are appropriate for use in the analysis of the fish and shellfish consumption data (i.e., variables DRD340, DRD350A-K, DRD350AQ-JQ DRD360, DRD370A-V, and DRD370AQ-UQ) located in the Day 1 Total Nutrient Intake File (DR1TOT_D), if no other dietary data are included in the analysis. Additional explanation of sample weights and appropriate uses are included in the NHANES Analytic Guidelines. Please also refer to the Analytic Guidelines for further details on other analytic issues at: https://wwwn.cdc.gov/nchs/nhanes/analyticguidelines.aspx.

Two technical support files are included with the Individual Foods files: the Food Code Description file (DRXFCD_D) and the Modification Code Description file (DRXMCD_D).
The DRXFCD_D file includes abbreviated descriptions (up to 60 characters) and complete descriptions (up to 200 characters) associated with each USDA food code identified in the Individual Foods files. The DRXMCD_D file includes descriptions associated with each modification code identified in the Individual Foods files.
The Food Code Description file (DRXFCD_D) contains three variables:
DRDIFDCD a numeric value corresponding to DR1IFDCD in the file
DR1IFF_D or DR2IFDCD in the file DR2IFF_D;
DRXFCSD a short description (up to 60 characters) of the food code.
DRXFCLD a long description (up to 200 characters) of the food code.
The Modification Code Description file (DRXMCD_D) contains two variables:
DRDMC a numeric value corresponding to DR1MC in the file DR1IFF_D or
DR2MC in the file DR2IFF_D;
DRMCD a description (up to 200 characters) of the modification code.
The following SQL code is an example of appending the modifications code description (here called DR1MCD) to one of the Individual Foods files. This code is for SAS® Proc SQL. Other SQL implementations may be different. This same technique may be used for the Food Code Description file as well.
create table dr1iff_d_plus as
select a.*,b.drxmcd as dr1mcd
from nhanes.dr1iff_d a
left join
nhanes.drxmcd_d b
on a.dr1mc = b.drxmc
order by seqn , dr1iline;
SAS® users may wish to use Proc Format to assign labels to the food codes or to the modification codes. The following example assigns a permanent format to the food code based on the short description. It is assumed that the user has stored the Individual Foods files and the Food Code Description file in a library called NHANES and wishes to store the formats there as well.
