Title: [Hungarian Diet and Nutritional Status Survey -- the OTAP2009 study. III. Vitamin intake of the Hungarian population]. Author: Lugasi A, Bakacs M, Zentai A, Kovács VA, Martos E. Journal: Orv Hetil; 2012 Jul 15; 153(28):1106-17. PubMed ID: 22776523. Abstract: UNLABELLED: For the healthy status the adequate intake of vitamins is essential. AIM AND METHOD: The Hungarian Diet and Nutritional Status Survey - joining to the European Health Interview Survey - studied the dietary habits of the Hungarian population. This work presents the vitamins intake. RESULTS: The intake of all water soluble vitamins, vitamin E and D were significantly higher in men than in women. Favourable phenomena were the increased β-carotene and vitamin C intakes in men and women compared to the earlier data. Intakes of vitamin C, B1-, B2-, B6- and B12, and niacin meet the recommendations. Crucially low intakes of vitamin D and folate were calculated in both genders, particularly in the elders, mainly in case of vitamin D. Imperfect intakes of panthotenic acid and biotin were also observed. CONCLUSIONS: For maintaining the adequate vitamin supply and for prevention of vitamin deficiency, diversified nutrition, information of the population on the basic principles of healthy nutrition and availability of healthy food are essential.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
