The exposure, SSCB con-sumption (1 serving: 200ml), was measured with previously validated FFQ.Anthropometrical measuresweretakenusing standardized protocols. Theoutcome,obesity, defined as BMI above age- sex-specific 97th percentileaccording to Spanish reference charts. In analysis we conditionallogistic regression. Potential confounders were controlled using multivariablemodel.Setting: Subjects recruited paediatric departments Universidad deNavarra Clinic Navarra Hospital Complex, three primary healthcentres Navarra.
