Abstract

Objective: To clarify the 10-year trends in the intake of fish, shellfish, eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA), and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) according to birth cohorts in middle-aged and elderly men and women.<br>Methods: We randomly selected 1,799 men and women aged 40~79 years from the community, and they completed both the initial and additional nutritional survey (3-day dietary records) for the first (1997~2000) to the sixth (2008~2010) biennial study waves. The mixed-effects regression model was used for analysis. To estimate the main effects of fish, shellfish, EPA, and DHA intake by age group (40~49, 50~59, 60~69, and 70~79 years according to age at study wave 1), the years from study wave 1 and the age group interaction × years from study wave 1 were substituted into the model. A subsequent model included energy intake into the covariates in the mixed-effects regression analyses.<br>Results: Fish and shellfish intake decreased in men and women aged 50~59 and 60~69 years. After adjusting for energy intake, fish and shellfish intake decreased by 1.19 g · 2,000 kcal-1 · year-1 in women aged 50~59 years and 0.85 g · 2, 000 kcal-1 · year-1 in men aged 60~69 years. EPA and DHA intake in the 40~49-year group increased by 8.16 mg/year in women (p = 0.04) and 9.53 mg/year in men (p = 0.053).<br>Conclusions: Even after adjustment for energy intake, there was a downward trend for fish and shellfish intake among women aged 50~59 years and men aged 60~69 years over 10 years. There was an increased trend for EPA and DHA intake among men and women aged 40~49 years.
