| Description | This study describes dietary habits and dietary nutrient intake in patients with age-related macular degeneration. According to FFQ, dietary habits in the patients with AMD and controls were similar. In men from the case group, we found statistically significant higher alcohol consumption. According to a 24-hour recall, the controls achieved recommended dietary intakes rather than cases. In comparison to the case group, the control group had a significantly higher dietary intake of energy, proteins, fats, saturated fatty acids, carbohydrates, dietary fibre, vitamin B2, vitamin B3, pantothenic acid, vitamin B6, potassium, phosphorus, magnesium, copper, and zinc. |
