Abstract Objectives Micronutrient inadequacies are common in older adults. We sought to assess if multivitamin/multimineral supplement (MVM) use improved micronutrient intake and biomarker status among older adults enrolled in NHANES. Methods The National Cancer Institute Method was used to estimate usual intakes of 18 micronutrients stratified by age and frequency of MVM use. Insufficiency and deficiency prevalence were evaluated using nutrient biomarkers. Results Compared with food alone, MVM use was associated with higher nutrient intake and lower prevalence of inadequacies of almost all micronutrients exam- ined and improved nutrient biomarker status of folate, iodine, selenium, and vitamins B6, B12, and D. Regular MVM use (!16days/month) decreased the odds of clinical deficiency (defined by biomarker status) of vitamins B6 and D but increased the proportion exceeding the tolerable upper intake level of folic acid. Vitamin B6 deficiency in MVM non-users was common and increased with age. Conclusions Recommending MVM in the middle-aged and older adult population in the US may help to ensure opti- mal long-term nutritional status and contribute to health maintenance.

AbstractObjectiveTo verify associations of income and education with nutrient intakes in Brazilian adults.DesignData from the population-based National Dietary Survey conducted in 2008–2009. Family per capita income and education levels were categorized into quartiles. Prevalences of inadequate nutrient intakes and excessive intakes of saturated fat and Na were calculated by using the method prescribed by the National Cancer Institute. The Estimated Average Requirement was used as a reference for micronutrient intake. Linear regression models for both the independent and the mutually adjusted associations of education and income with nutrient intakes were tested. Interaction between education and income was tested.SettingHouseholds (n 13 569) selected using a two-stage cluster sampling design.SubjectsFood records for two non-consecutive days were obtained for 21 003 Brazilian adults (aged 20–59 years).ResultsFor most of eleven nutrients, the prevalence of inadequate intake declined with increasing income and education levels; however, it remained high across all income and education quartiles. Excessive intake of saturated fat and low fibre intake increased with both variables. Most nutrients were independently associated with income and education in both sexes. Fe, vitamin B12 and Na intakes among women were associated only with education. There was an interaction between income and education for Na intake in men, P intake in women and Ca intake in both sexes.ConclusionsEducation is one important step to improve nutrient intakes in Brazil. Emphasis should be laid on enhancing dietary knowledge and formulating economic strategies that would allow lower-income individuals to adopt a healthy diet.
