To describe the geographical patterns and trends of macronutrient intake in Japan for the recent 20 years, we analyzed the data sets of the National Nutrition Surveys (J-NNS). First, we calculated regression coefficients for survey year by prefecture for energy, protein, fat, and carbohydrate intake. These results, however, could be affected by the changes in age and sex distributions of the survey samples. Secondly, as the food consumption data were based on household as a unit, we used proportions of the subjects who belong to age-specific groups and female subjects in a sub-sample for each prefecture in a given year for adjustment by general lineal model. As a result, 1% increase in the subjects aged 1-4, 10-19 and 65- years and female subjects was equivalent to the changes in average energy intake by -5.88, +2.27, -1.45 and -1.62 kcal, respectively. After the adjustment for age and sex, number of significant negative coefficients among 47 prefectures decreased for energy and carbohydrate intake, and that of positive coefficients increased for fat intake. This suggested that unadjusted trend data might lead to an overestimation of decreasing trends of energy and carbohydrate intake, and an underestimation of increasing trend of fat intake in the recent 20 years.
