Objective:
To understand dairy consumption characteristics among adult residents in nine provinces of China.
Methods:
Using the 9 rounds data from the "China health and nutrition survey "( CHNS) on the subjects aged 18 to 59 years old with complete 24-hour-dietary for 3 days, analyze dairy consumption rate, average dairy intake and variation characteristics, and compare with the Chinese residents ' dietary guidelines recommended.
Results:
There were increasing trends of dairy consumption rate and average daily intake among adult residents from 1989-2011, in which dairy consumption rate rose from 1. 45% in 1989 g/d to 16. 84% in 2011. The average dairy intake rose from 2. 06 g/d in 1989 to 26. 47 in 2011. The rate of the average dairy intake more than300 g/d( the recommended dairy intake of the dietary guidelines for Chinese people) rose from 0. 12% in 1989 to 1. 13% in 2011.
Conclusion:
The condition of dairy consumption among Chinese adult residents was improved significantly, but there was still huge gap with the 300 g/d proposed by the Chinese residents' dietary guidelines.
