3. Methodology
Data collection period:
February to August 2007.
Survey sample:
4,487 children aged 2-16 years from across Australia.
Dietary measurement method:
24 hour dietary recall on two occasions - once by computer assisted
personal interview, followed 7 to 21 days later by computer
assisted telephone interview.

23. Key points about Calcium
From the 2007 Childrens Survey, calcium is the most poorly consumed
of the
nutrients measured in relation to requirements for Australian
children.
The recommended dietary intake for calcium the reference intake for
individuals
is 40% greater than the EAR for 4 to 8 year olds and about 25%
greater for 9 to 16
year olds.
Adolescence is a period of rapid skeletal growth during which
almost half of adult
bone mass is acquired. Genetic factors influence an individuals
peak bone mass,
but lifestyle practices such as exercise and adequate calcium are
also important
And modifiable.
Under-consumption of calcium may eventually lead to achievement of
a lower peak
bone mass in early adult life than would otherwise be the
case.
Dairy foods provide most of the calcium in the diet of Australian
children improving
the calcium intake of Australian children is most easily achieved
by an increase in
their daily intake of calcium rich dairy foods.
