This file contains data collected during the national survey of nutritional status between 1970 to 1972. The file is organized as one food item per record. There are an average of 25 dietary frequency records per person with a maximum of 85. Records for each person are stored contiguously and sequenced on the last three digits of the food code. Each record will be seen to correspond to one entry on the form 3 source document. The file records the amount and frequency of consumption of all foods and beverages (including alcohol) by each respondent in the month prior to the dietary interview. Amount was measured according to an average serving and was recorded as number of servings per day, week or month. An average serving of alcohol - beer, wine or spirits - was considered as 12 ounces, 3 ounces or 1.25 ounces respectively. These data were intended to calculate the intake of non-nutritive additives in foods, rather than nutrients.
