        abstract = {This study aims to get insight in the relation between food intake, weight status and socio-economic status in relation to the nutrition transition. Main results are that SES in combination with ethnicity are considered as the main explanatory determinants of weight status and food intake of children. The food intake and weight status of low SES children fits best in the receding famine stage of the nutrition transition. The food intake and weight status fits best in the NRNC-disease stage of the nutrition transition. Differences have also been observed. Macronutrient intake should not be assessed as a percentage of total energy intake but, in order to prevent a certain degree of bias, in grams per kilogram bodyweight.}
