Description

INTRODUCTION The poor nutritional status of the population in many parts of Africa is worrying. This fact is reflected in a baseline survey report carried out in 2001 from 304 households in the Iringa and Morogoro regions in Tanzania which showed that more than 80% of the children below five years were anaemic, while 25% and 52% were underweight and stunted, respectively [1]. For people over 15 years of age, the prevalence of anemia was approximately 50% with higher incidence for women. Anthropometric measurements showed that about 10% of the adult females were underweight, as compared to 31% of the males. The proportion of children and adults who were severely wasted were 1.5% and 4%, respectively.
