许多研究支持高水果和蔬菜（FV）消费对慢性疾病风险的保护作用，主要是预防癌症和心血管疾病。与年轻人相比，老年人经历了影响饮食摄入的其他健康，社会和环境条件。为了确定这些额外的维度，并检查它们与FV摄入量的关系，分析了南非全球老龄化和成人健康研究（SAGE）中3,840名参与者的数据。我们在2008年进行了一项基于全国人口的横断面研究，样本为3，840名参与者，年龄在50岁或以上，在南非。问卷包括社会人口学特征、健康变量、人体测量和血压测量等问题。进行多变量回归分析，以评估社会人口因素，健康变量和FV消费不足之间的关联。FV摄入不足的总体患病率为68.5%，男性为64.8%，女性为71.4%，老年人（50岁及以上）平均摄入4.0份FV。在多变量分析中，来自非洲黑人或有色人种群体，较低的教育水平和每日烟草使用与FV摄入不足相关。南非老年参与者消耗的水果和蔬菜（FV）的量大大低于目前的建议（每天至少摄入五份; 400克）。应针对受教育程度较低的非洲黑人和有色人种群体，促进关于适当消费维生素V的公共教育和运动。
Numerous studies support the protective effect of high fruit and vegetable (FV) consumption on chronic disease risk, mainly against cancer and cardiovascular diseases. Compared with younger adults, older people experience additional health, social, and environmental conditions that affect dietary intake. To identify those additional dimensions and examine them in association with FV intake, data on 3,840 participants in the Study of Global Ageing and Adults Health (SAGE) in South Africa were analyzed. We conducted a national population-based cross-sectional study in 2008 with a sample of 3,840 participants, aged 50 years or older, in South Africa. The questionnaire included questions on socio-demographic characteristics, health variables, anthropometry, and blood pressure measurements. Multivariable regression analysis was performed to assess the associations between socio-demographic factors, health variables, and inadequate FV consumption. Overall prevalence rates of insufficient FV intake were 68.5%, 64.8% among men and 71.4% among women, with a mean intake of 4.0 servings of FV among older adults (50 years and older). In multivariable analysis, coming from the Black African or Colored population group, lower educational level and daily tobacco use were associated with inadequate FV intake. The amount of fruit and vegetables (FVs) consumed by older South African participants was considerably lower than current recommendations (daily intake of at least five servings; 400 g). Public education and campaigns on adequate consumption of FVs should be promoted targeting lower educated and Black African and Colored population groups.
