Purpose: To compare dietary intakes of individuals with and without familial history of obesity (FHO) with recommendations from Canada's Food Guide to Healthy Eating (CFGHE). Methods: This cross-sectional study recruited 197 women and 129 men with a body mass index of less than 30kg/m2 from the Quebec City metropolitan area. A dietitian obtained their dietary intakes, using a food frequency questionnaire. Results: Daily energy, macronutrient, and fibre intakes were not significantly different between individuals with and without FHO. No significant differences in the proportion of individuals who achieved the minimum CFGHE recommendations were observed between individuals with and without FHO. Conclusions: Findings of our study suggest that individuals with and without FHO have comparable dietary intakes when compared to Canadian dietary guidelines.
