Answer each question as best you can and feel free to estimate if you are not sure, as a guess is better than leaving the answer blank.

Deze vragenlijst met 7 vragen over voedselfrequentie is ontwikkeld door DSM Nutritional Products en aangepast door Dr. Susan Carlson en haar team van voedingswetenschappers aan de Universiteit van Kansas. De vragenlijst is gevalideerd bij zwangere vrouwen in het Middenwesten van de Verenigde Staten en wordt momenteel gebruikt als screeningsinstrument vroeg in de zwangerschap aan het University of Kansas Medical Center om zwangere vrouwen met een hoog risico op vroeggeboorte als gevolg van een lage inname van DHA te identificeren.1,2
