title: [Biological value of the average daily diets of elderly and old individuals in Uzbekistan].
abstract: Nutrition was studied in the elderly (60-74 years), old individuals (75-90 years), and long livers (above 90 years) of Tashkent and the Kashkadarya Region by estimating the biological values of their diets and the biochemical parameters of vitamin C metabolism. Low biological values of actual diets, low vitamin C supply were found in the elderly and old individuals. Alimentary correction of the biochemical parameters of vitamin C metabolism was ascertained to be possible by enhancing the biological value of their diets by taking into account the national peculiarities of nutrition and relevant dietary technologies.
