    In order to determine the effects of the dietary environment on health and disease, we conducted various clinical examinations and a dietary survey of inhabitants aged 40 to 69 years in 6 districts of Okinawa (an urban community on the Main Island; Islands A and B, linked to the Main Island; and remote Islands, K, S and T) by making use of quantitative analysis (deviation pattern similarity, factor analysis).
    We especially studied the relationship of food intake to three conditions, i.e. obesity, hypercholesterolemia, and hypertension.
    The results were as follows:
    Obesity was frequently observed in all districts, notably in the urban community and on Island A.
    The obese subjects tended to decrease with aging.
    Hypercholesterolemia was more prevalent in the urban community than in the other districts.
    This might be due to excessive intake of fat of animal origin
    Incidence of hypertension was very high in both men and women on Islands A and B.
    No correlation was observed between blood pressure and salt consumption.
    Three patterns of food intake and two patterns on clinical findings were noted in the six districts of Okinawa.

    We investigated factors in taste, such as “home”, “housing” and “district environment”. As indicators we used desire for food, frequency of food intake, and food preference; and surveyed typical egg dishes, viz., raw egg, boiled egg, fried egg, tamagoyaki, chawanmushi, pudding.
    The subjects were children aged 5 and 6 years.
    1. Children like “egg dishes” and want to eat them frequently. Correlations between these two factors are high. The frequency of eating “fried egg” is high and “chawanmushi” low.
    2. High positive correlations of food preferences were observed between children and parents.
    Children of working mothers like “raw egg”, children of mothers who are not working like “pudding”. A high degree of desire for the foods and a high frequency of intake were observed in both cases.
    In compound families, high correlations of preferences were observed between parents and children. Concerning “raw egg” in compound families and “pudding” in nuclear families, high correlations of intake frequency and degree of desire were observed.
    The larger the numbers of siblings, it was noted, the higher the preference for egg dishes.
    3. Concerning “housing” and “district environment, ” some differences were observed in the intensity of desire for food and frequency of intake, depending on the type of cooking.

    Relationships between food intake and dental caries in 108 female students aged 18 and 19 years were investigated by multivariate analysis.
    Food intake was measured by examining the volume of all foods taken over a period of three weekdays.
    The incidence of dental caries was shown by the DMF tooth rate.
    A negative correlation was found between DMF tooth rate and vegetable or mushroom intake, and a positive correlation between DMF tooth rate and fruit intake.
    The correlation matrix was subjected to principal component analysis, to obtain the nine principal components (Z1-Z9). Their cumulative contribution rate was 70.7 percent.
    After orthogonal rotation of the nine principal components, nine new factors (F1-F9) were found.
    The factors linking foods to dental caries were F1 (dental caries and vegetables) and F5 (dental caries and fruit, confectionery).
    Dental caries was a factor related to about one—third of all foods consumed.
