Background: Deficiency of vitamin B12 (B12) and folate (FA) leads to a wide spectrum of disorders that affect all age groups. However, reports on B12 and FA status in healthy adults in India are limited. Hence, we determined the plasma levels and dietary intake of B12 and FA in the adult population. Methods: We conducted a community-based cross-sectional study in an urban setup among 630 apparently healthy adults distributed into 3 age groups: 21-40, 41-60 and >60 years. Plasma concentrations of B12 and FA were analyzed by radio immunoassay and dietary intake by 24-hour recall method. Results: The overall prevalence of FA deficiency was 12%, but there was no significant difference in plasma FA concentrations among the groups. While the overall prevalence of B12 deficiency was 35%, it was significantly higher in the 21-40 (44%) and 41-60 age groups (40%) when compared with the >60 group (30%). B12 deficiency was higher in vegetarians (54%) compared to those consuming mixed diet (31%), and the reverse was the case with FA. However, the dietary intakes of FA and B12 were not significantly different among the groups. Conclusions: These results indicate a higher prevalence of B12 deficiency in apparently healthy adults in an urban setup.

Long Distance Race

Long-distance race car drivers are classified as athletes. The sport is physically and mentally demanding, requiring long hours of practice. Therefore, optimal dietary intake is essential for health and performance of the athlete. The aim of the study was to evaluate dietary intake and to compare the data with dietary recommendations for athletes and for the general adult population according to the German Nutrition Society (DGE). A 24-h dietary recall during a competition preparation phase was obtained from 16 male race car drivers (28.3 ± 6.1 years, body mass index (BMI) of 22.9 ± 2.3 kg/m2). The mean intake of energy, nutrients, water and alcohol was recorded. The mean energy, vitamin B2, vitamin E, folate, fiber, calcium, water and alcohol intake were 2124 ± 814 kcal/day, 1.3 ± 0.5 mg/day, 12.5 ± 9.5 mg/day, 231.0 ± 90.9 ug/day, 21.4 ± 9.4 g/day, 1104 ± 764 mg/day, 3309 ± 1522 mL/day and 0.8 ± 2.5 mL/day respectively. Our study indicated that many of the nutrients studied, including energy and carbohydrate, were below the recommended dietary intake for both athletes and the DGE.

Abstract Background Few studies have been conducted with reference to dietary intake among adults in Hungary and none among Roma. In this study, we assess dietary intake of both Hungarian general (HG) and Hungarian Roma (HR) adult population and provide an up-to-date preview on highly health-relevant macro- and micro-nutrient intakes and dietary profile of the HG and HR adult population. Methods The study population comprised 797 Hungarian adults (HG: N = 410, response rate=82% and HR: N = 387, response rate=79%), representative in terms of geographic, sex and age distribution with the general population aged 20-64 years, from the 2018 GINOP Complex Health Survey. Energy and selected nutrient intakes were calculated with NutriComp v.3.0, based on a qualitatively validated double 24 hours dietary recall, adopted for the Hungarian population. Results Total daily energy and selected nutrients intake among HG and HR adult subjects are reported. In spite of the presence of diluted underestimation effects, intake of nutrients with high relevance to health (i.e. sugars, sodium, saturated fats, cholesterol, etc.) remains relatively high, while consumption of fibre-rich products and beneficial nutrients appear to be low, particularly among Roma. Considering both health and environmental impact of the diet, animal-based proteins are way over the target value (i.e. 6%E) of the recent EAT-Lancet report. Conclusions Findings provide data on dietary patterns of HG and HR with nutrient-level estimations, highlighting the importance of establishing and integrating Roma nutrition in national surveillance and monitoring systems for key dietary risk factors. Public health strategies to modify current dietary patterns in Hungary are a great opportunity for improving nutrition, health and environmental impact of dietary choices, especially within the current framework of the UN Decade of Action on Nutrition (2016-2025). Key messages Our study highlights the importance of establishing and integrating Roma nutrition in national surveillance and monitoring systems for key dietary risk factors. Current findings warrant further investigations of the nutritional and dietary patterns among Hungarian General and Roma adult population and their impact on health and environment.

AbstractObjectiveFew dietary surveys have been done with reference to chronic diseases, such as diabetes, in India, which is considered to be the diabetes capital of the world. We report on the dietary intake of urban adults living in Chennai, South India.DesignA population-based cross-sectional study.SettingA representative population of urban Chennai in southern India.SubjectsThe study population comprised 2042 individuals aged ≥20 years selected from the Chennai Urban Rural Epidemiological Study (CURES). Dietary intake was measured using a validated and previously published interviewer-administered semi-quantitative meal-based FFQ.ResultsThe mean daily energy intake was 10 393 (sd 2347) kJ (male: 10953 (sd 2364) kJ v. female: 9832 (sd 233) kJ). Carbohydrates were the major source of energy (64 %), followed by fat (24 %) and protein (12 %). Refined cereals contributed to the bulk of the energy (45·8 %), followed by visible fats and oils (12·4 %) and pulses and legumes (7·8 %). However, energy supply from sugar and sweetened beverages was within the recommended levels. Intake of micronutrient-rich foods, such as fruit and vegetable consumption (265 g/d), and fish and seafoods (20 g/d), was far below the FAO/WHO recommendation. Dairy and meat products intake was within the national recommended intake.ConclusionsThe diet of this urban South Indian population consists mainly of refined cereals with low intake of fish, fruit and vegetables, and all of these could possibly contribute to the risk of non-communicable diseases such as diabetes in this population.

Abstract The aim of this study was to assess the dietary exposure of phosphorus in the Serbian adult population by combining individual consumption data with available data for analysed meat products. During a three years period of investigation (2018 to 2020), a total of 682 samples consisting of 425 cooked sausages and 257 smoked meat products were collected from different local retail markets across the Serbia to examine phosphorus concentrations. The mean phosphorus concentration, expressed as P2O5, varied from 4.68±0.88 g/kg to 6.05±1.30 g/kg in finely minced cooked sausages and smoked meat products, respectively. The average estimated daily dietary intake (exposure) (EDI) of phosphorus ranged from 1.115 mg/kg BW (body weight)/day (finely minced cooked sausages) to 1.441 mg/kg BW/day (smoked meat products). Phosphorus dietary intake (exposure) averaged 3.08% of the acceptable daily intake (ADI: 40 mg/kg BW/day). According to our results, the average phosphorus exposure in the Serbian adult population from consumption of these meat products is far below the European ADI.
