H
Estimated Intakes of Calcium and Vitamin D from National Surveys

UNITED STATES

In order to assist the committee, staff from the National Cancer Institute (NCI), National Institutes of Health (NIH), provided more detailed information regarding calcium and vitamin D intakes among the U.S. population than is available from Bailey et al. (2010).¹ The data tables provided are included in this appendix (Tables H-1 through H-4). The data are based on the 2005–2006 reports from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES), specifically What We Eat in America,² but incorporate (1) information on supplement use to allow the estimation of a total intake; (2) a shrinkage estimator approach rather than a Monte Carlo approach to obtain usual intake percentiles; and (3) supplement use as a covariate. These data form the basis for some of the figures in Chapter 7, as specified in the figure legends.

CANADA

Intake data for calcium and vitamin D from the Canadian Community Health Survey (CCHS), Cycle 2.2, Nutrition are shown in Tables H-5 and
