Investigations made it possible to establish that in the period from 1925-28 to 1970-71 there took place in the Ukraine an increase in the consumption of animal products (milk, meat, fish, eggs), of sugar, vegetables, fruits and a fall in the consumption of cereals (bakery products, grits, macaroni, beans) and potato. Because of these dietary changes in the nutritional pattern of the population there were noted an elevated proportional share of proteins and fats, basically of animal origin, and a decrease in that of complex carbohydrates. A direct relation between the health status of the population and its alimentation has been ascertained; first--between the calorific value of the food products sets and their fat and carbohydrates content, on the one hand, and the body weight of the examined, on the other; and secondly--between the fluorine level in the food and the prevalence of fluorosis, caries, exostosis, aggravated by an imbalance of a number of nutritional components, on the other. Note has been taken at the same time of the fact that obese individuals suffer more often from cardio-vascular affections, gout, uro- and cholelithiasis and diabetes mellitus.
调查表明，从1925 - 28年到1970 - 71年期间，乌克兰居民对动物产品（牛奶、肉类、鱼类、蛋类）、糖、蔬菜、水果的消费量有所增加，而谷物（面包制品、粗磨谷物、通心粉、豆类）和土豆的消费量则有所下降。由于这些饮食变化，居民营养结构中蛋白质和脂肪（主要是动物源性）的比例升高，复合碳水化合物的比例降低。已确定居民健康状况与其饮食之间存在直接关系：一方面，食品组的热量值及其脂肪和碳水化合物含量与被检查者的体重之间存在关系；另一方面，食物中的氟含量与氟中毒、龋齿、外生骨疣的患病率之间存在关系，多种营养成分失衡会加剧这些疾病。同时还注意到肥胖者更易患心血管疾病、痛风、尿路结石和胆结石以及糖尿病。
