Book excerpt: Abstract: As part of the 1977-78 USDA Nationwide Food Consumption Survey, average 1-day food intakes were reported for 2305 individuals in Alaska. The results of the analysis are presented in 16 age-sex categories for intakes from 10 major food groups and 43 subgroups. Other tables cover the nutrient contribution to the diet of 14 food groups, average intakes of energy and 14 nutrients, comparisons of intakes to 1980 RDAs, and nutrient densities. Infant nutrition and food intake is discussed, as well as some demographic characteristics of households and individuals. An overall summary is included in addition to interpretive summaries of each set of data.
