Based on the "Total Diet Study" conducted in 1990, food samples from urban and rural inhabitants in the four regions of China(North I, North II, South I and South II) were analyzed separately. The results showed that, except the status in South II, the amount of fat and cholesterol intake existed obvious differences between urban and rural inhabitants in the same region. The dietary fat and cholesterol intake of rural inhabitants in North II region was obvious inadequate. Dietary fat intake of urban inhabitants was high and the cholesterol intake was higher than the level of 300 mg per capita. The results showed that the ratio of polyunsaturated fatty acids was relatively low but the ratio of monounsaturated fatty acids was relatively high for dietary fat in two southern regions. It might be beneficial to increase plant oil which contains high amount of polyunsaturated fatty acids for the inhabitants in southern regions. From these results, we concluded that the dietary lipids intake of Chinese inhabitants was generally appropriate. Considering the great difference in economic development and dietetic culture, the dietary suggestions should be different regions to regions.
