The objective of this work was to assess the nutrition status of elderly and to determine the nutritional value of their daily diet. The study was carried out with 76 residents of the Social Help Centre 'Kombatant' in Olsztyn, mean age 84 years. When assessing the nutrition status, the following anthropometric values were determined: body weight and height, body mass index (BMI), body fat mass and fat-free mass. Dietary practice of each subject was evaluated by 24 h recall method. Obesity was frequently observed in the elderly examined, affecting 15 to 35% subjects, as based on BMI and 35 to 85% subjects, as based on body fat mass. Obesity was more common in women than men. Except the intake of phosphorus by men, the intake of nutrients was considerably smaller than recommended dietary allowances (40 to 80% of the recommended level), creating a risk for dietary deficiencies, particularly regarding vitamins A, B2, B6 and C and minerals: calcium, magnesium and iron. The average intake of carbohydrates was particularly low, close to recommended minimum amount, i.e. about 160 g/day for women and about 190 g/day for men. Low intakes of fat (50 to 57 g/day) and cholesterol (180 to 200 mg/day) were considered advantageous. The failures observed in the nutrition patterns of elderly can stimulate the aging processes and favour osteoporosis in women.
The nutritional habits of perinatal women for consumption of butter and margarine were determined. The study was performed on 231 women by collecting the information about both the consumption of fats used as bread spreads or dish and culinary additives, and the amount of margarine consumed regularly for spreading on bread. The correlation between the nutritional habits and selected socio-economical factors such as place of residence, education, occupation and declared economical status, was analysed. Margarines were found to be used commonly for spreading on bread and were more often used for preparing cakes and cake fillings than butter. These two fats were thus recognized as the most important sources of trans fatty acid isomers taken by the studied women. No correlation was found between the intake of margarine as bread spread and examined socio-economical factors. High consumption of margarines by perinatal women should be considered alarming because of the possibility for the incidence of trans fatty acid isomers in breast milk in the amounts that are danger for the health of their children.
