A percentage of individuals eating food from each food group, the contributions of each food group to food energy, and 14 nutrients are presented. Results are summarized based on data presented in 120 tables which profile FSP participants compared to non-participants.

Download or read book Food Consumption and Dietary Levels of Low income Households November 1977 March 1978 written by and published by . This book was released on 1981 with total page 38 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: 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).

Book The Food Choices of Low income Households

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: The objective of this report is to examine the food choices of low-income households in order to understand the factors accounting for differences among low-income households in the nutritional adequacy of their food choices. The data used are from the 1979-80 Survey of Food Consumption in Low-Income Households, a survey of household food use that was conducted from November 1979 through March 1980 using a national sample of 2900 low-income households. The analysis has four components: (1) an examination of the quantities of food used, the money value of food used, the prices paid, the share of the food budget devoted to different food groups, and nutrient densities; (2) a comparison of the food choices of FSP participants and low-income nonparticipants; (3) an analysis of the extent to which the diets of low-income households resemble the 1983 Thrifty Food Plan (TFP); and (4) an analysis of the perceived adequacy of household food supplies.
