We prove that there exist absolute constants $c,C > 0$ and an orthonormal set of vectors $Θ\subset S^{n-1}$ with size $\left|Θ\right| \ge 9n/10$ such that, if $X$ is a random vector uniformly distributed on $K$, then for all $θ\in Θ$ one has \[ c\cdot \sqrt{p}\,\left(\mathbb{E} \left|\left\langle X,θ\right\rangle\right|^2\right)^{1/2} \le \left(\mathbb{E} \left|\left\langle X,θ\right\rangle\right|^p\right)^{1/p} \le C\cdot \sqrt{p}\,\left(\mathbb{E} \left|\left\langle X,θ\right\rangle\right|^2\right)^{1/2}, \] where the upper estimate holds for all $p \ge 1$ while the lower bound only holds for $1 \le p \le n$.

Let $K \subset \mathbb{R}^n$ be a centered convex body of volume one. We prove that there exist absolute constants $c,C > 0$ and an orthonormal set of vectors $Θ\subset S^{n-1}$ with size $\left|Θ\right| \ge 9n/10$ such that, if $X$ is a random vector uniformly distributed on $K$, then for all $θ\in Θ$ one has \[ c\cdot \sqrt{p}\,\left(\mathbb{E} \left|\left\langle X,θ\right\rangle\right|^2\right)^{1/2} \le \left(\mathbb{E} \left|\left\langle X,θ\right\rangle\right|^p\right)^{1/p} \le C\cdot \sqrt{p}\,\left(\mathbb{E} \left|\left\langle X,θ\right\rangle\right|^2\right)^{1/2}, \] where the upper estimate holds for all $p \ge 1$ while the lower bound only holds for $1 \le p \le n$.
