Analysis of nutritional supply for personnel wintering-over at Syowa Station, Antarctica(JARE-39)
The nutritional supply of wintering personnel at Syowa Station was analyzed throughout the year 1998. Analysis was performed employing digital pictures of food chosen and consumed by one of the station personnel (medical doctor: male) throughout the year. Food consumption was estimated from the pict...

Protein (P) and fat (F) intake were higher and carbohydrate (C) was less than the Recommended Daily Amounts for Japanese throughout the year. The consumption of Vitamin C was highest in April, and showed lower values after June. Sodium chloride intake showed an increasing trend throughout the year, possibly due to increased use of preserved food. The supply of fiber was about 50% of the recommended amount for Japanese, possibly due to the limited supply of fresh vegetables and fruit.
