Data collection at 12 months was performed through home visits, in which a 24-hour recall was applied and the additives present on the labels of each food were subsequently identified. The dietary analysis at 12 months consisted of 172 children in the intervention group (IG) and 155 in the control group (CG). Children in the intervention group had lower daily consumption of food additives (IG: 17.4±14.3 vs. CG: 21.2±18.0; p=0.030). The proportion of children consuming more than 22 additives per day was lower in the intervention group (IG: 13% vs. CG: 24%; p=0.048).

Analysis detected several flaws in the instruments' aforementioned aspects and the conceptual model proposed by WHO which limits their application as global instruments.

The data set includes information on gender, age, the monthly income of the person responsible, and an adherence score to the Food Guide, which refers to eating practices in line with and opposed to national recommendations for adequate and healthy eating. The association between the variables was analyzed using multiple linear regression by backward stepwise. The findings indicate that residing in a food desert is associated with a 2.41-point reduction in the adherence score to the Food Guide, irrespective of income, age, and gender. Additionally, living in a food desert is linked to a 1.39-point decrease in the adherence score for practices that are contrary to the Food Guide. Food swamps were not associated with adherence to the Food Guide.
