The use of phosphorus as a factor that influenced the assimilability calcium and magnesium was additionally studied. The investigation used the methods of budgetary follow-up and questionnaire surveys, by applying the data on the chemical composition of foodstuffs and individual types of drinking waters. There were inadequate actual average daily intakes of calcium (22-31.1% of the normal values) and partly magnesium (574-117.5% of the normal values) and imbalance of these elements and phosphorus. Deficient intake of calcium and magnesium was most common in the residents of south-west and north-west areas of the territory.
