However, the impact of free and added sugars intakes on dietary intake is unknown in Swedish adolescents. This study investigated associations of free and added sugars intakes with nutrient and food consumption. Data were derived from the Riksmaten Adolescents 2016\u20132017 cross-sectional survey, including a nationally representative sample of 3099 adolescents, aged around 12, 15 and 18 years, which provided two 24-h recalls. Median nutrient and food group intakes were compared across sugars intake quintiles, with adjustments for sex, school year and energy misreporting. Inverse associations were observed for almost all micronutrients, dietary fibre, essential fats and food groups commonly included in a healthy diet (e.g. vegetables, fruit, dairy products, meat, fish). However, positive associations between free sugars and vitamin C intake were observed, with fruit juice influencing intake trends. Total energy intake was not positively associated with free or added sugars intakes. Higher intakes of free and added sugars (&gt; 12\u00b79 and &gt; 11\u00b73 % of total energy intake) significantly reduced the likelihood of meeting nutrient reference values. However, for critical nutrients within the adolescent diet (vitamin D, Se, dietary fibre and polyunsaturated fats), lower odds of meeting reference values were observed even at lower intakes of free and added sugars. To conclude, with increasing sugars intake, Swedish adolescents appear to displace nutrient-dense foods with sugars-rich foods, emphasising differences in dietary patterns between those with lower\n                    <jats:italic>v<\/jats:italic>\n                    . higher free and added sugars intake.\n                  <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1017\/s000711452610693x","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,3,25]],"date-time":"2026-03-25T10:55:31Z","timestamp":1774436131000},"page":"216-227","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1017\/policypage","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["Associations of free and added sugars intakes with nutrient intake and food consumption in Swedish adolescents"],"prefix":"10.1017","volume":"136","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-8431-3682","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Julia","family":"Wanselius","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"id":[{"id":"https:\/\/ror.org\/01tm6cn81","id-type":"ROR","asserted-by":"publisher"}],"name":"University of Gothenburg"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-4748-4300","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Anna Karin","family":"Lindroos","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Swedish Food Agency"},{"name":"Uppsala University"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-5479-4948","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Lotta","family":"Moraeus","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Swedish Food Agency"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Emma","family":"Patterson","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Swedish Food Agency"},{"name":"Department of Global Public Health, Karolinska Institutet"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Christina","family":"Berg","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"id":[{"id":"https:\/\/ror.org\/01tm6cn81","id-type":"ROR","asserted-by":"publisher"}],"name":"University of Gothenburg"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Christel","family":"Larsson","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"id":[{"id":"https:\/\/ror.org\/01tm6cn81","id-type":"ROR","asserted-by":"publisher"}],"name":"University of Gothenburg"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"56","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026,3,25]]},"reference":[{"key":"S000711452610693X_ref39","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3390\/nu16010031"},{"key":"S000711452610693X_ref31","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1038\/sj.ijo.0801376"},{"key":"S000711452610693X_ref24","unstructured":"24.
