维生素补充剂使用的详细数据,提出了九种特定的维生素和矿物质的广泛的人口和行为特征。第一次全国健康和营养调查(1971-1974)中以前记录但未编码的数据已经被编码和分析,在足够大的代表性样本中提供了唯一详细的维生素使用数据,以检查许多特征的联合分布和多变量分析。经常摄入维生素的黑人明显少于白色人,在特定维生素方面差异尤其明显:维生素E为4倍,维生素A为6倍,维生素C为10倍。在年龄、性别、地理区域、教育、贫困、酒精饮料消费类型和Quetelet指数方面也存在显着差异,所提供的数据表明,从调查时间到1983年,补充剂的使用并没有显着增加,因此补充剂的使用数据被认为是美国目前补充剂实践模式的合理代表。
Detailed data on vitamin supplement use are presented for nine specific vitamins and minerals by a wide range of demographic and behavioral characteristics. Previously recorded but uncoded data from the first National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (1971-1974) have been coded and analyzed, providing the only detailed vitamin use data in a representative sample large enough to examine joint distributions and multivariate analyses of numerous characteristics. Significantly fewer black persons than white persons consume vitamins regularly, and the difference is especially pronounced for specific vitamins: fourfold for vitamin E, sixfold for vitamin A, and 10-fold for vitamin C. Significant differences were also seen for age, sex, geographic region, education, poverty, type of alcoholic beverage consumed, and Quetelet index, Data are presented indicating that supplement use has not increased notably between the time of the survey and 1983, and thus the supplement use data are considered to be reseasonably representative of current patterns of supplementation practice in the United States.
