폐경 여성의 영양소 및 식품 섭취 상태 평가

초록

Objectives: The purpose of this study was to determine the dietary intake of nutrients and food in postmenopausal Korean women. Methods: One hundred eighty-nine postmenopausal women were recruited from 10 different hospitals in Seoul. The dietary intake of nutrients and foods was obtained using a semi-quantitative food frequency questionnaire, including 102 foods based on the Korean food pattern. Results: Postmenopausal Korean women consumed energy and most of the nutrients adequately, except vitamin D, calcium, potassium, and folate. Intake of vitamin D and calcium was 60% and 78%, respectively, of the Korean Dietary Reference Intake (KDRI). Elderly postmenopausal women ＞ 65 years of age consumed significantly less nutrients, such as fat, n-3 and n-6 fatty acids, fiber, vitamin A, vitamin B complex, calcium, potassium, iron, fruit, fish, and mushrooms. The intake of vitamin D, calcium, potassium, and folate, was less than the KDRI in both groups of postmenopausal women. Conclusion: The results suggest that the intake of vitamin D, folate, calcium, and potassium was less than the KDRI in postmenopausal women and the nutritional status of elderly postmenopausal women was worse than younger postmenopausal women.
