Abstract

The estimation of the nutritional requirements at the national or population level has a great difficulty in calculating the cumulative effects of the several variables, i. e. age, sex, weight activity, etc., in order to adapt nutrient requirements to the condition of a country or to a population group. The Joint FAO/WHO Expert Group on nutrient requirements had proposed a simpler model, an average daily per capita nutritional requirements that will enable the different parameters to incorporated in a single calculation table. The average daily per caita nutritional requirements for Korean-1982 calculated by this proposed method are as follows : energy, 2,200 kcal ; protein, 70g : calcium, 0.72g ; iron, 14mg; vitamin A, 1,900 IU ; ascorbic acid, 50mg ; thiamin, 0.9mg ; riboflavin, 1.2mg ; niacin equivalent, 15mg. The average daily per capita nutritional requirements would be used to assess the adequacy of the national dietary intakes and provide basic information for the establishment of national food production and consumption policies and the planning of programmes aiming at an adequate and equitable distribution of food supplies. On a different levels, they would be used widely in the planning of diets for a specific population group, and also provide important reference information for the epidemiology study of nutritional deficiencies.

국가적(國家的) 차원에서의 국민영양소요양(國民營養所要量)을 확립하는데 중요한 지표(指標)가 되는 한국인(韓國人) 평균1인1일당(平均1人1日當) 영양소요양(營養所要量)설정의 필요성에 의하여, 1980년도(年度) 경제기획원인구(經濟企劃院人口)센서스 자료(資料)와 FAO한국협회(韓國協會)가 1980년(年) 제(第)3 차 (次) 개정(改定)한 한국인영양권장양으로부터 한국인(韓國人) 평균(平均)1인(人)1일당(日當) 영양소요양(營養所要量)을 계산(計算)하였다. 즉 영양소별(營養素別) 평균(平均)1인(人)1일당(日當) 영양소요양(營養所要量)은 에너지 2,200 kcal, 단백질(蛋白質) 70 g, 칼슘 0.72 g, 철(鐵) 14 mg, 비타민 A 1,900 IU, 비타민 C 50 mg, 비타민$B_{1}$ 0.9 mg, 비타민 $B_{2}$ 1.2 mg 그리고 나이아신당양(當量)은 15 mg이었다.
