The nutrition survey of infants at day care center in Tokyo, on 8 healthy boys and 7 girls, aged 13 to 34 months, 74.8 to 91.3cm body height and 9.6 to 14.3 kg body weight was examined by the method based on the national nutrition survey of Japan. The nutritional status was estimated by calculation using the standard tables of food composition in Japan, 4th revised edition and supplementary table of for fatty acids, cholesterol and vitamin E. The mean values of energy, lipids, protein, retinol, thiamine, riboflavin and ascorbic acid in model menu exceeded the recommended dietary allowance(RDA) for infants of the age. The mean intakes of lipid, energy and polyunsaturated fatty acids, protein in boys and girls were almost the same as those in the RDA. The mean intakes of retinol, riboflavin and ascorbic acid exceeded the RDA for infants of the age. A great difference was found in the lipids, thiamine and vitamin E intake between infants, the mean intake value in 2 years old was lower than those of 1 year olds. The daily cholesterol intake was from 147mg to 235mg. The ratio of E/PUFA was higher than 0.6. The ratios of vitamin E intake per 100 kcal energy and per 1 kg in body weight, were from 0.44 to 0.62mg and from 0.30 to 0.60mg, respectively. As a conclusion, the finding of a smaller intake of principal nutrients in 2 years old infants compared with 1 year old infants, involves many nutritional problems. These results suggest that these infants should be required nutritional advice about a well balanced diet and an available selection of proper foods.
