Despite the overall healthiness of foods consumed by Nigerian adults and low risk of poor diet quality across seasons, men and younger adults tend to consume more unhealthy foods and fewer home cooked meals. Both genders, irrespective of age, had low intakes of cruciferous vegetables. These findings highlight opportunities for targeted interventions to improve the overall healthiness of dietary intakes among Nigerian adults.
