目的：为了测试（1）儿童是否会食用低糖即食（RTE）谷物和（2）高糖与低糖谷物对谷物、精制糖、新鲜水果和牛奶消费的影响。参与者和方法：使用实验设计，我们将参加夏令营的儿童（n = 91）随机分配到早餐组，早餐包括三种高糖谷物中的一种，（高糖条件）或低糖谷物（低糖条件），以及低脂牛奶、橙子汁、香蕉、草莓和糖包。参与者自己服务，并在用餐后完成背景调查问卷。结果：在两种情况下，孩子们都报告“喜欢”或“爱”他们选择的谷物。低糖谷物条件下的儿童平均摄入略多于1份谷物（35 g），而高糖条件下的儿童摄入量明显更多（61 g），几乎是精制糖总量的两倍（24.4 vs 12.5 g）。牛奶和总热量的消耗在不同的条件下没有显著差异，但是在低糖条件下的孩子更有可能把水果放在他们的谷物中（54%对8%），从新鲜水果中消耗的热量占总热量的比例更大（20%对13%）。与提供低糖谷物相比，高糖谷物增加了儿童的总糖消耗量，降低了早餐的整体营养质量。儿童将消费低糖谷物时，提供，他们提供了一个上级早餐的选择。儿科2011;127：71-76
OBJECTIVES: To test (1) whether children will consume low-sugar ready-to-eat (RTE) cereals and (2) the effects of serving high-versus low-sugar cereals on the consumption of cereal, refined sugar, fresh fruit, and milk.PARTICIPANTS AND METHODS: Using an experimental design, we randomly assigned children (n = 91) who were attending summer day camp to receive a breakfast that included either the choice of 1 of 3 high-sugar cereals (high-sugar condition) or low-sugar cereals (low-sugar condition), as well as low-fat milk, orange juice, bananas, strawberries, and sugar packets. Participants served themselves and completed a background questionnaire after eating. Researchers measured the amount and calories consumed of each food.RESULTS: In both conditions, children reported "liking" or "loving" the cereal they chose. Children in the low-sugar cereal condition consumed, on average, slightly more than 1 serving of cereal (35 g), whereas children in the high-sugar condition consumed significantly more (61 g) and almost twice the amount of refined sugar in total (24.4 vs 12.5 g). Milk and total calories consumed did not differ significantly between conditions, but children in the low-sugar condition were more likely to put fruit on their cereal (54% vs 8%) and consumed a greater portion of total calories from fresh fruit (20% vs 13%).CONCLUSIONS: Compared with serving low-sugar cereals, high-sugar cereals increase children's total sugar consumption and reduce the overall nutritional quality of their breakfast. Children will consume low-sugar cereals when offered, and they provide a superior breakfast option. Pediatrics 2011;127:71-76
