A 51-item calcium-focused food frequency questionnaire is a reliable tool to assess dietary calcium intake in postmenopausal women

This study tested the hypothesis that a calcium-focused food frequency questionnaire (FFQ) may be used to estimate dCai of women ≥50years residing in a multicultural environment (Montreal, Canada). One hundred and eight women (age 63.1±7.7years, 98% postmenopausal) completed the FFQ twice and four nonconsecutive 24-hour recalls (24HRs) over one month.
