According to the National Cancer Institute, the 24-hour dietary recall (24HR) is a common dietary assessment method in large population surveys. A 24-hour diet recall is a structured interview process that captures detailed data on all foods and beverages a person has consumed in the preceding 24 hours. This tool is instrumental in nutrition research, clinical settings, and public health surveillance to understand eating patterns and nutritional intake.
