[Dietary intake of a representative sample of the population of Val-de-Marne; III. Mineral and vitamin intake].
Mineral and vitamin intakes were assessed among 1108 subjects, aged 6 months to 97 years in 12 of 47 towns and cities in the district of Val-de-Marne (Paris area), using the telephone directory as random sampling base. Micronutrients intake was evaluated by individual interviews at home by specialized dietitians (dietary history method). Mineral and vitamin intake was found to vary widely with age. In absolute value, overall mineral and vitamin dietary intakes was higher in men than in women (except for vitamin C). Conversely, the dietary density for mineral and vitamins was higher in females. For a large part of the studied population, it would appear difficult to satisfy recommended dietary allowances for many micronutrients (iron, zinc, vit. B1, B6, C, A et E). These results bring to light possible difficulties in covering certain mineral and vitamin requirements in the French population.
