Summary Associations between nutrient intakes and each of the following are discussed: season, social class and smoking habit. Examination of recent data suggests that seasonal variation in nutrient intakes is minimal. Social class has some effect on intakes of energy and carbohydrate, manual workers tending to have greater intakes than non‐manual workers. Smoking habit has the greatest effect on nutrient intakes, smokers tending to have lower intakes of several vitamins and minerals compared with non‐smokers, although total energy intakes are similar.
