As per the dietary intake, the females of nuclear families have higher intake of protein, PUFA, vitamin A, B group of vitamins, vitamin C and folacin, but the intake of calories, carbohydrates, total fat particularly the saturated fat, magnesium and zinc is more in the diets of females of extended families. Fat is a critical nutrient in the diets of the elderly females, particularly the saturated fat.
