DOWNLOAD EBOOKAbstract: A survey of 4400 low-income households eligible for food stamps was conducted in 1977-78 to study certain population subgroups; dietary intake levels were evaluated and the impact of food programs on nutritional status was assessed. Data were obtained on kind, form, quantity, and cost of foods used at home for a 7-day period. Demographic information included household size, use of food stamps, age of household head, tenancy, ethnic background, food shopping habits, and educational attainment. Some of the findings were that the food stamp program recipients (38%) were located in urban areas of the south or northeast, were likely to be female-headed households, and were not elderly. The average household used $48 worth of food per week for 3.3 members. Households receiving food stamps had slightly higher food money values and nutrient intakes per member than did non-recipient households. Food use of the average household was sufficient to meet RDAs for energy and 11 nutrients. (cj).

The data are organized to depict the intake contributions of 14 food groups to the intakes of 14 nutrients and calories, including their mean intakes, dietary nutrient densities, and a comparison of nutrient intakes to 1980 recommended allowances and 1965 intake data. Also included are: nutrient contributions from foods eaten in restaurants and from meals and snack foods; the effects of the frequency and time of eating; nutrient intake data for 22 sex-age groups in 4 income levels, 3 urbanization levels, for 2 racial groups, and the effects of seasonal variations; and nutrient intakes for special groups (infants, vegetarians, pregnant and lactating women). Factors influencing nutrient intakes (nutrient supplements, height and weight, health status, physical disability, special diets) are discussed. (wz).
