There was no differences of principle in vitamin status of population living in 'zones of strict control' (Brjanskaja, Mogilevskaja, Gomel'skaja regions) and Moscow's population. Mean indices of vitamin C, A, E, B1 and carotene status in children and adults were not differed in two groups of population. But vitamin B2 and niacin status in Moscow's adults were worse. Among children from Moscow vitamin C deficiency was found more rare and vitamin E deficiency more often than those in population from regions suffering from Chernobyl. It was established that supplement of third dishes with vitamin C is not sufficient for elimination of vitamin C deficiency. Polyvitamin pills 'Duovit' or premix 'Roche' were more effective in removal vitamin deficiency.
