Healthy Eating Index-2020 (HEI-2020) radar plots across the lifespan, National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey 2011-2018

Caption

aOn the radar plots, each component score is plotted as a percentage of its maximum points on 13 different axes. The outer edge of the radar represents 100% of the maximum score for that component; the center represents 0% of the maximum score for any component. Additional information on HEI visualization and radar plots can be found on the NCI website. bThe HEI-Toddlers-2020 for 12 through 23 months is included to illustrate radar plots across the lifespan, however components and scoring approaches differ from the HEI-2020 for ages 2 years and older. Further details on the HEI-Toddlers-2020 and scoring of each component are provided in the HEI-Toddlers-2020 Development paper. cTotal HEI Scores (out of 100 points) with (a): HEI-Toddlers-2020 for toddlers, 12 through 23 months = 63.4; (b) HEI-2020 for children, 2-4 years = 58.3; 5-8 years = 52.6; 9-13 years = 50.1; 14-18 years = 49.3; and (c) HEI-2020 for adults: 19-30 years = 55.3; 31-59 years = 55.3; ≥60 years = 59.5. Due to the overlapping, consistent results between age groups 19-30 years and 31-59 years, they are combined in the radar plot.
