Food intake and nutrient sources in the diet of middle-aged men in southern Germany: results from the WHO MONICA Augsburg Dietary Survey 1984/85.
Diet records of the WHO MONICA Augsburg dietary survey 1984/85 sample of 899 men aged 45-64 were used to derive quantitative data about food intake and the contribution of food groups to energy intake and the intake of those nutrients relevant to the discussion about nutrition and cardiovascular disease: protein, fat, saturated, mono- and polyunsaturated fatty acids, cholesterol, carbohydrate, polysaccharides and total fiber. The present lists of nutrient sources should be helpful for the development of acceptable dietary advises, which make allowance for actual eating patterns as well as for developing improved instruments of dietary assessment.
