This study examines nutrient intake and factors influencing eating behaviors in a sample of 76 migrant older women (≥ 60 years) living in the UK. Nutrient intake was assessed using a 24-hr recall enhanced by an in-depth probing dietary interview. Median energy intake was significantly lower than the UK RNIs (5,125.4 v. 7,301.1 kJ/d, p < .001). Main nutrients of concern were retinol, vitamin D, magnesium, potassium, copper, selenium, and monounsaturated fatty acids. Semistructured interviews were conducted with a subsample (n = 46) and analyzed using thematic analysis. Although women were knowledgeable about what constitutes a healthy diet, factors such as the presence and awareness of obesity and noncommunicable diseases, changes to household roles, and dietary restrictions related to religious beliefs were identified key influences on participants' dietary intake. Strategies targeting this population need to promote not only a healthy energy balance, but also dietary adequacy to optimize nutrient intake.
本研究调查了76名居住在英国的60岁及以上老年移民女性的营养摄入情况以及影响其饮食行为的因素。通过深入的饮食访谈辅助的24小时回忆法评估营养摄入。能量摄入量中位数显著低于英国推荐营养素摄入量（5,125.4对7,301.1千焦/天，p < .001）。主要关注的营养素是视黄醇、维生素D、镁、钾、铜、硒和单不饱和脂肪酸。对一个子样本（n = 46）进行了半结构化访谈，并采用主题分析法进行分析。尽管这些女性了解健康饮食的构成要素，但肥胖和非传染性疾病的存在与认知、家庭角色的变化以及与宗教信仰相关的饮食限制等因素被确定为对参与者饮食摄入的关键影响因素。针对这一人群的策略不仅需要促进健康的能量平衡，还需要保证饮食充足以优化营养摄入。
