Abstract
Aim
Hygienic assessment of the dietary intake of aluminum in the body of the adult population of the region of Western Siberia.
Materials methods
The studies were conducted in 2019-2020 among the adult population of the Omsk region. The aluminum content in the human body was evaluated in 240 people.The actual intake of aluminum with food products was assessed in 421 adult residents of the region using a questionnaire on the frequency of food consumption.
Results
In 33.13.9% of the population, the content of aluminum in the body was higher than the reference values. Significant differences in the content of aluminum in the body of the population of different age-sex groups have not been determined (p=0.200). The median daily intake of aluminum was 4.77 mg/day. (3.679; 6.118). The main contribution to the intake of aluminum with food products was made by: "Drinks", "Vegetables", "Bakery products", among individual products - tea and bread. An increase in the contribution of vegetables and a decrease in the contribution of confectionery products to the intake of aluminum with an increase in the age of the population was noted.
Discussion
The median intake of "edible" aluminum in the adult population of the Omsk region did not exceed TWI, as well as PTWI, and corresponded to world data on the average level of aluminum intake into the human body.
Conclusion
An increase in the proportion of the population with a high content of aluminum in the body requires in-depth toxicological, hygienic and epidemiological studies.
