Title in different languages: Assessment of diet habits and nutritional intake in children under 5 years of age. Equatorial Guinea
Abstract: In 2004, the child population of Equatorial Guinea showed adherence to adequate breastfeeding and complementary feeding patterns, although a negative trend has been observed over the years. However, caloric and nutrient intake was much lower than the recommendations, especially highlighting the low intake of proteins and micronutrients, such as iron, calcium, vitamin A, zinc and sodium. These deficiencies in intake are related to factors such as geographic area, age of children and malaria infection among other socioeconomic causes.
