Reflection spectroscopy is an emerging, non-invasive objective measure used to approximate fruit and vegetable intake. The purpose of this study was to use a reflection spectroscopy device (the Veggie Meter®) to assess skin carotenoid status in preschool, middle, and high school students and to examine associations between skin carotenoids and self-reported dietary intake. In Fall 2018, we used the Veggie Meter® to assess skin carotenoids, and age-appropriate, validated dietary assessment measures to approximate fruit and vegetable (FV) intake. Preschool participants completed the previously validated Pictorial Liking Tool using an iPad. Middle school participants completed selected questions from the validated School Physical Activity and Nutrition (SPAN) questionnaire regarding frequency of their FV and beverage intake on the previous day, with additional questions about physical activity. High school participants’ FV intake was assessed by the National Cancer Institute (NCI) Fruit and Vegetable Screener. Spearman correlation coefficients were used to determine bivariate associations between measures of dietary intake and Veggie Meter®-assessed skin carotenoid levels. Mean (SD) Veggie Meter® readings were 266 (82.9), 219 (68.1), and 216 (67.2) among preschool, middle-, and high-school students. There was an inverse association between soda intake and Veggie Meter® readings (r = −0.22, p = 0.03) among middle-schoolers; and a positive, marginally significant association between daily fruit intake and Veggie Meter® readings (r = 0.25, p = 0.06) among high schoolers. The Veggie Meter® is a promising evaluation tool for preschool and school-based nutrition interventions.
