摘要
A postal survey of dietary fibre intake was conducted in two British towns in 1983, and repeated five years later. Consumption of dietary fibre had risen, the rise being greater in the town where the initial intake was higher. Changes in intake appeared to be related to health-consciousness as reflected by changes in body mass index (BMI) and smoking habit. Although dietary fibre consumption in Britain is rising overall, local differences may be widening rather than narrowing.
