The subjects in the dietary survey were 68 965 residents from 23 470 households. RESULTS: The average retinol equivalent intake in per day was 469.2 microg for per reference man. The residents with the retinol equivalent intake equal or higher than RNI accounted for 14.5% and those with the intake lower than 20% of the RNI accounted for 23.2%. The retinol equivalent intake in type III rural areas was the lowest among all the areas with only 9.7% residents having intakes equal or higher than RNI.
