    Abstract:
    Dietary intakes of 113 men and women aged 50-66 years, sampled from the Auckland electoral roll, were measured by a prospective seven day dietary diary. The mean intakes of percentage of energy due to fat and saturated fat were 32% and 16% in men and 34% and 15% in women. Compared with earlier New Zealand dietary studies, which used different methods, there has been an apparent decrease in both the absolute amount and proportion of cholesterol and saturated fat. The absolute and relative amount of protein consumed appears to have remained stable while carbohydrate intake has increased. In comparison with current guidelines for dietary fat intake there remains a need for further improvement in the typical New Zealand adult diet.
