FFQ para el estudio del consumo de cacao (portugués)

Cocoa has been highlighted as a food with potential benefits to human health due to it being animportant source of polyphenols. However, few studies show the contribution of cocoa andchocolate products in polyphenol intake. The aim of this work was to develop and validate afood frequency questionnaire (FFQ) evaluating the intake of food products containing cocoa (CFFQ).A sample of university students was recruited to complete the 90-item questionnaire inSpain and therefore in Spanish (http://diposit.ub.edu/dspace/handle/2445/60475) and in Portugalin a Portuguese version, which is the present document. The developed FFQ questionnaire canbe considered as a valid option for assessing the consumption frequency of cocoa- andchocolate-derived products, thereby allowing the evaluation of cocoa polyphenol intake infurther studies.
