All cells in the human body are exposed to reactive oxygen species (ROS), which disturb the metabolic reactions in the organism. The antioxidant system in the human body consists of enzymatic and non-enzymatic mechanisms, among which vitamins A, C, and E play a major role.
The aim of the study was to evaluate the supply of vitamins A, C, and E from daily food rations (DFR) in postmenopausal women with metabolic syndrome (MS) in relation to current nutrition standards.
The study involved 184 women with MS, aged 45-68 years (mean 57.38 ±8.17 years). The control group comprised 90 women, aged 41-65 years (mean 57.48 ±5.79 years) without MS. The food intake was assessed using 24-hour dietary recalls.
The evaluation of intake of vitamins measured with daily food rations (DFR) demonstrated that the optimal level of 90-110% according to standards was achieved only in 3.62% of women with metabolic syndrome for vitamin A, in 8.88% for vitamin C, and in 11.41% for vitamin E, which was significantly less often found than in the control group (p < 0.001).
Women with MS are characterised by diversified intake of vitamins A, C and E, and a subgroup of this patients present low level of antioxidant vitamins intake. Supplementation with antioxidant vitamins should be prescribed individually to postmenopausal women with MS.
人体中的所有细胞都暴露于活性氧（ROS）中，活性氧会干扰机体的代谢反应。人体的抗氧化系统由酶促和非酶促机制组成，其中维生素A、C和E发挥主要作用。
本研究的目的是评估患有代谢综合征（MS）的绝经后女性日常饮食定量（DFR）中维生素A、C和E的供应情况，并与当前营养标准进行比较。
该研究纳入了184名年龄在45 - 68岁（平均57.38±8.17岁）的患有MS的女性。对照组包括90名年龄在41 - 65岁（平均57.48±5.79岁）且无MS的女性。通过24小时饮食回顾法评估食物摄入量。
根据日常饮食定量（DFR）对维生素摄入量的评估表明，按照标准达到90 - 110%的最佳水平的情况，在患有代谢综合征的女性中，维生素A仅为3.62%，维生素C为8.88%，维生素E为11.41%，明显低于对照组（p < 0.001）。
患有MS的女性维生素A、C和E的摄入量各不相同，该患者亚组中存在抗氧化维生素摄入量低的情况。对于患有MS的绝经后女性，应单独开具抗氧化维生素补充剂。
