Seven-day dietary diaries were provided by 180 men participating in the Baltimore Longitudinal Study of Aging during each of 3 time periods (1961-1965, 1966-1970 and 1971-1975). These men are a highly educated, upper-middle class group. At the time of their 1st diary, they were aged 35-74 yr. The data were analyzed for aging, cohort and time effects on diet by utilizing 3 types of research designs concurrently, i.e., cross-sectional, longitudinal and time series. The nutrients considered were calories, protein, carbohydrate, fat, saturated fatty acids, polyunsaturated fatty acids and cholesterol. Aging had a negative effect on intake of calories, fat, saturated fatty acids and cholesterol. Cohort effects were not observed for any of these nutrients. Over time, intake of carbohydrates and cholesterol declined, while intake of polyunsaturated fatty acids rose.
