Popis:	The objective of this project was to assess the contributions made by diet and/or food supplements to the intake of vitamins and minerals. Results indicated that 30% of the respondents were meeting less than 67% of the 1989 Recommended Dietary Allowance (RDA) for calcium with diet alone or diet plus supplements. Of those who supplemented, 46 percent consumed (diet and supplements) vitamin C at levels greater than 150% of the 1989 RDA. Even when vitamin C intake was greater than the RDA of 60 mg, 40% took supplements averaging 689.2 mg/day. Although 37% of the people were meeting the highest RDA for both riboflavin and niacin, through food, all were consuming supplements. Research supported by the SAES Western Regional Project W-153.
