[Evaluation of vitamin intake in a group of people at the University of Murcia].

The aim of this study was to evaluate the daily intake of vitamins in a group of adults of the University of Murcia. A sample of 116 individuals (69 men and 47 women) aged 25 to 45 was used. Data were derived from 7-day dietary records done by the individuals, and the intakes of vitamins were compared with the Spanish Recommended Dietary Allowances. The results showed that the intake of water-soluble vitamins was appropriate; but the intake of vitamins E and D were low in both sexes. The intake of vitamin A was excessive in almost 40% of the studied population.
