TL;DR
Despite the overall changes in mean weekly frequency of consumption and prevalence of daily consumers, relative ranking by frequency at age 14 indicated some stability of eating behavior into young adulthood.
Abstract
Despite the overall changes in mean weekly frequency of consumption and prevalence of daily consumers, relative ranking by frequency at age 14 indicated some stability of eating behavior into young adulthood.

256 Citations1996Dianne Neumark‐Sztainer, Mary Story +2 more
The results stress the need for intervention programs aimed at increased consumption of fruits and vegetables among adolescents, and approaches need to be suitable to those at highest risk for inadequate consumption, in particular those from low socioeconomic backgrounds.

With the exception of Arizona, mean daily fruit and vegetable intakes measured by the telephone survey were similar to intakes estimated by multiple diet records or recalls and lower than those estimated by extensive food frequency questionnaires.

216 Citations1998Elyse Trudeau, Alan R. Kristal +2 more
Dietary interventions based on a general 5-A-Day message may be more effective in increasing fruit intakes than vegetable intakes, and targeted interventions that focus specifically on vegetables are probably necessary.

The results indicated that, over a period of 14 years covering adolescence and young adulthood, both stability coefficients and tracking for subjects at risk for lifestyle risk factors were low, indicating low predictability of early measurements for values later in life.

Data from multivariate analyses (logistic regression) showed that age, sex, income and household structure were important determinants for the consumption of fruits and vegetables, and consumers who were very interested in health issues, were more likely to have a high consumption of vegetables.

It is found that peak strain physical activity was a relatively more important predictor of adult BMD than ‘energetic’ physical activity and low tracking was found for physical (in-) activity and dietary intake variables.
European Journal of Public HealthStability in physical activity levels in young adolescents
17 Citations1994Norman Anderssen, Knut‐Inge Klepp +2 more
The data indicate that young adolescents become less physically active and their physical activity occurs in longer sessions, and a polarization between active and less active students seems to take place as the associations between the various measures were consistently stronger in the second year compared to the baseline year.
