    Author: Stuckey SJ, Darnton-Hill I, Ash S, Brand JC, Hain DL.
    Journal: Hum Nutr Appl Nutr; 1984 Aug; 38(4):255-64. PubMed ID: 6490393.
    Abstract:
    The dietary intakes of an elderly non-institutionalized population in inner metropolitan Sydney were collected and analysed. Participants in the study (n = 124) had their midday meal at either an Activity Centre or at home (Meals-on-Wheels Organization). The dietary data was collected over 4 days. Heights and weights and some sociological data were also obtained. The study indicated that a significant proportion of this population may be at nutritional risk, and that this was particularly so for males receiving Meals-on-Wheels.
