The authors evaluated fiber intake in 350 children and adolescents that were followed-up for a chronic disease (asthma, cancer, obesity) and in 1,000 healthy children from nursery schools, primary schools, high schools and colleges. The authors found that fiber intake is adequate only in healthy children from nursery schools but was decreased in all other groups.
