Table summary
This table displays the results of Percentage of 500 simulated diets with median percent of energy from protein. The information is grouped by Macronutrient, sex, age group (appearing as row headers), Median % of energy, AMDR (%), Within AMDR, % below AMDR, % above AMDR, % and 95% confidence interval (appearing as column headers).
