The determinants of nutritional status
1987
Pellett, P.L.
A technical report addresses major factors influencing nutritional status, including the major stages of nutritional deficiency disease and the causes of inadequate nutrition (especially, poverty). Correlations between indicators for identifying hunger at national, regional, local, and household levels are discussed, including the prediction of nutritionally at-risk individuals or groups based on cross-country correlations and typical profiles of malnourished families. Summary data on correlation coefficients relative to population characteristics, food and nutrient intake, health and nutritional practices, and economy and education status are presented and discussed. The role of nutritionists in treating and preventing nutritional disorders also is addressed.(wz)
