The association between 100% FJ consumption with nutrient intake, diet quality, and weight was examined in children (n=6,090) using NHANES (2007‐2010) data. Consumers (n=2,337; 34%) were defined by four categories of 100% FJ consumption using a 24‐hour diet recall. Trend analysis (covariate adjusted) was conducted using appropriate sample weights. Logistic regression was used to determine odds ratios. Diet quality was calculated using the Healthy Eating Index‐2010 (HEI). Mean 100% FJ consumption was 3.6 oz/d, which contributed a mean of 47 kcal (2.6% of total energy intake). Compared with non‐consumers, children consuming 100% FJ had significantly increased (p<0.01) intakes of energy, carbohydrates, potassium, magnesium, and vitamins C and B6 and significantly (p<0.01) lower intakes of total fat, SFA, solid fat, added sugar, and sodium. Children consuming 100% FJ consumed significantly (p<0.01) more servings of whole fruit than non‐consumers; no differences were found in milk consumption. The total HEI score significantly increased (p<0.0001) with increased 100% FJ consumption (43.8 for 0 oz. to 52.3 for (>12 oz). There was no difference in the likelihood of being overweight/obese between 100% FJ consumers and non‐consumers. 100% FJ consumption was not excessive and was associated with better nutrient intakes and was not associated with the likelihood of being overweight/obese in children.
