Descriptors of alcohol consumption among noninstitutionalized nonalcoholic elderly.

Abstract:

:This paper describes relationships between reported alcohol consumption and selected sociodemographic and health variables. Two hundred and four men and 367 women aged 60-95 years were examined as part of a nutritional status survey of elderly. Fifty-three percent of men and 44% of women reported drinking at least 2 g of alcohol per week. Men were more likely to drink than women, and the level of alcohol consumption decreased with age. Drinking was positively associated with education (p less than 0.01) and negatively associated with recent medical care (p less than 0.01), history of MI (p less than 0.05), and denture use (p less than 0.05). Among drinkers, reported alcohol intake was higher for subjects less than age 70 (p less than 0.01), males (p less than 0.01), the college educated (p less than 0.01), and smokers (p less than 0.05). Level of alcohol intake was lower for those who had received medical care in the year preceding study participation (p less than 0.05). Identical results were observed for alcohol intake expressed as percent of total calories. Intake ranged from 3.8% of total calories among subjects 80+ years old to 6.2% of total calories among 60-69-year-olds.
