The questionnaire consists of one basic questionnaire, assessed at [[1A|baseline]]: **the heart** of the flower. It covers energy and macronutrient intake and takes ~30 minutes to complete. The raw data from the heart FFQ were used to calculate [[FFQ sum scores|macronutrient sum scores]].\\ | The questionnaire consists of one basic questionnaire, assessed at [[1A|baseline]]: **the heart** of the flower.
