Are older Americans making better food choices to meet diet and health recommendations?
Trends in food consumption by elderly men and women were recently reported using data from the US Nationwide Food Consumption Surveys of 1977-1978 and 1987-1988. Problems of interpretation arise because of the significant nonresponse rates that occurred during the NFCS survey and other difficulties related to comparison of population nutrient intakes over time.
