AB  - OBJECTIVE: In the public health arena, a single component of total dietary 
      intake, such as sugar intake, has been questioned as the health risk of obesity. 
      This study aimed to investigate if the uptrend of obesity prevalence in the USA 
      is associated with dietary sugar intake when other dietary intakes are 
      controlled. METHODS: In this cross-sectional study, National Health and Nutrition 
      Examination Surveys I (1971-1975, n = 20 195) and III (1988-1994, n = 28 663) 
      were investigated. Multivariate predictive models were used to determine if body 
      mass index was predicted by the daily intakes of total energy, carbohydrate 
      (CHO), and total sugars and the percentages of energy from CHO, fat, total sugar, 
      and added sugars. RESULTS: From 1970 through 1990, the contribution of sugars to 
      total CHO intake decreased in the 1 to 18 y and >/=19 y subgroups, and the 
      contribution of added sugars to the total energy intake did not change. 
      Multivariate predictive models identified energy intake as a positive predictor, 
      CHO as a negative predictor, and total sugar intake as a non-predictor for body 
      mass index in the 1 to 18 y and >/=19 y age subgroups. Daily energy intake was 
      positively predicted by CHO and fat intakes but not with total and added sugar 
      intakes in the two age subgroups. CONCLUSION: Energy intake was the primary 
      contributor to body mass index in all age groups in this study. The major energy 
      sources of children and adolescents differed from those of adults. The implicated 
      associations between energy and macronutrient intakes indicate that keeping 
      energy balance is the primary strategy to avoid obesity.
