Description
Yosuke Nagashima and five co-authors tested a food questionnaire built for Japanese athletes in this 2025 study. The tool asks how often a person eats each food, which is cheap and quick for large groups. But it only helps if its answers line up with what athletes truly eat, so the team checked it on young players.
Sixty-four junior high soccer players, aged thirteen to fifteen, filled in the questionnaire and kept food records for three days. The two methods agreed fairly well for both nutrients and food groups, and few players landed in the wrong group. Scores tended to run a bit low on the questionnaire, yet rankings stayed sound. The authors judge the tool fit for sorting young athletes by intake.
