As with any restrictive diet, it may potentially lead to nutritional deficits. Seventy-six patients with CD (mean age 9.0 \u00b1 4.3 years, 57% female) and 590 healthy controls (HC) (mean age 9.9 \u00b1 0.1 years, 54% female) were recruited and requested to keep a 3-day food record (3DFR). In HC patients, anthropometric data were determined at the time when 3DFRs were collected. In CD patients, anthropometric data were determined at two time points: at diagnosis and at the time of 3DFRs collection. Intake of energy, macronutrients, and micronutrients was determined using PRODI expert 6.9 software and expressed as a percentage of recommended daily intake. In CD patients, all measured anthropometric measures (body weight (BW), body height (BH), and body mass index (BMI) z-scores) increased significantly after the mean duration of 34.1 months of a GFD. Overall, CD patients had significantly lower BW and BH z-scores compared to healthy controls. Patients with CD were generally more compliant with the recommended dietary intakes of macronutrients and some micronutrients, as compared to HC. Three participants were not compliant with the GFD; 42.1% of participants took oral nutritional supplements at the start of their GFD. Our study showed that patients with CD have better compliance with dietary recommendations compared to healthy controls, showing that a well-balanced GFD diet can provide necessary macro- and micronutrients.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/children9101595","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,10,23]],"date-time":"2022-10-23T20:43:50Z","timestamp":1666557830000},"page":"1595","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":2,"title":["Quality of Diet of Patients with Coeliac Disease in Comparison to Healthy Children"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"9","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-5998-5586","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Sara","family":"Sila","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Referral Centre for Pediatric Gastroenterology and Nutrition, Children\u2019s Hospital Zagreb, 10000 Zagreb, Croatia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-3059-3690","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Mario","family":"Ma\u0161i\u0107","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Referral Centre for Pediatric Gastroenterology and Nutrition, Children\u2019s Hospital Zagreb, 10000 Zagreb, Croatia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Dra\u017eenka","family":"Kranj\u010dec","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Health Center Zagreb East, 10000 Zagreb, Croatia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Tena","family":"Niseteo","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Referral Centre for Pediatric Gastroenterology and Nutrition, Children\u2019s Hospital Zagreb, 10000 Zagreb, Croatia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Lucija","family":"Mari\u0107","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Croatian Academic Centre for Applied Nutritional Science, 10000 Zagreb, Croatia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Ana","family":"Raduni\u0107","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Referral Centre for Pediatric Gastroenterology and Nutrition, Children\u2019s Hospital Zagreb, 10000 Zagreb, Croatia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Iva","family":"Hojsak","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Referral Centre for Pediatric Gastroenterology and Nutrition, Children\u2019s Hospital Zagreb, 10000 Zagreb, Croatia"},{"name":"School of Medicine, University of Zagreb, 10000 Zagreb, Croatia"},{"name":"School of Medicine, University J.J.
