Abbreviations: EAR: Estimated Average Requirements, TEI: Total Energy Intake. * ANCOVA tests adjusted for marital status, professional status, smoking status and physical activity. For alcohol, tests were also adjusted for total energy intake. Chi-square tests were performed. EAR for adult men: Vitamin A: 570 µg/day; Vitamin B1: 1.50 mg/day; Vitamin B6: 1.80 mg/day; Vitamin B12: 4.00 µg/day; Vitamin C: 90.0 mg/day; Vitamin E: 10.50 mg/day. EAR for adult women: Vitamin A: 490 µg/day; Vitamin B1: 1.20 mg/day; Vitamin B6: 1.50 mg/day; Vitamin B12: 4.00 µg/day; Vitamin C: 90.0 mg/day; Vitamin E: 9.90 mg/day. For beta-carotene, usual intakes among the general population were used: 3228.80 µg/day for both men and women.
