Abstract
A nutrition survey of young women living in the City of Utsunomiya and its surroundings was performed in July, August and December 1959 and also in January 1960. Results were shown as follows.
1. The amounts of intake of calorie, protein, fat and iron were adequate, but those of calcium and vitamin A were under their allowances.
2. The amounts of intake of vitamin B1, B2 and C were reached to their allowances, but it would be desirable to increase their amounts of intake, because of their losses by cooking.
3. The amounts of intake, of these nutrients except fat are superior in summer than in winter.
4. The ratio of the amount of vitamin A to that of the carotene is 1:6.8.
