Sociodemographic and Regional Determinants of Dietary Patterns in Russia

“…Our study significantly contributes to the knowledge of dietary patterns of the Russian population. While earlier, in the framework of the ESSE-RF study, the frequency of consumption of certain food groups in the Russian population was shown [10,11], our article adds to this knowledge in the context of empirical approaches and specifies dietary patterns for the population of Russia.…”

“…In the framework of the Russian epidemiological study "Epidemiology of Cardiovascular Diseases in the Regions of the Russian Federation" (ESSE-RF), the frequency of consumption of certain food groups among the Russian population was shown [10,11]. However, the consumption of certain foods can be combined with absolutely different other food products.…”

Educational and nutritional status of the adult population of the Russian Federation. The results of an epidemiological study ESSE-RF

“…Подобная ситуация наблюдается и в странах Прибалтийского бассейна (Латвия, Литва, Эстония), где потребление красного мяса возрастает с уровнем образования [6]. Следует отметить, что высокий характер потребления красного мяса свойственен в целом для нашей популяции и уже описывался в результатах исследованиях ЭССЕ-РФ [22]. Схожая ситуация и с зернобобовыми, культура потребления которых в настоящее время плохо проявлена в российской популяции и остается крайней низкой [22].…”
