title: [Results of a dietary survey in adults in Erfurt in 1991/92: nutritional intake].
abstract: A dietary survey using weighted 3-day-records was carried out in the sample of the third MONICA risk-factor survey in the Thuringian city of Erfurt (eastern Germany) in 1991/92. The aim was to collect detailed intake data in a defined population after the first phase of consolidation on the food market after the German reunification. The dietary sample consisted of 1,118 men and 1,179 women aged 20-64 years; we received 469 acceptable records from men and 333 from women. The German national nutrient datafile BLS (version 2.1) was used to code the records and for the transformation into nutrients. Mean energy intake in men was 2,624 kcal per day, 15.3% came from protein, 40.0% from fat, 38.5% from carbohydrates and 6.0% from alcohol. Corresponding figures for women were 1,916 kcal per day, 15.8%, 40.5%, 41.5% and 2.1%. Only a small percentage of participants achieved the recommendations of the German Society for Nutrition for the intake of selected nutrients.
