Summary, etc. | A Study was conducted among the preschool children belonging to agricultural labourer families in Thrissur district, to find out their nutritional profile and to analyse the association if any, between nutritional profile and mental functions of these children. The socio economic details inferred through the survey were found to be satisfactory. Nuclear families with better housing facilities and good educational level was the striking feature observed. Immunization and other health care facilities were better utilized by the families. Food consumption survey results revealed a dietary pattern of vegetables, pulses, coconut and coconut oil. The inclusion of green leafy vegetables and fruits by the families was found to be negligible. Dietary profile of preschool children revealed that the food groups and nutrient intakes were below the RDA levels. Prevalence of malnutrition as revealed by anthropometric survey indicated that most of the children were normal. But prevalence of grade I and grade II malnutrition was observed in some children. Majority of the preschool children were having average IQ. Association between nutrient intake and IQ of children when statistically analysed showed that 53 percent variation in IQ could be explained by the overall nutrient intake (calorie, protein and iron). Association between nutritional status (anthropometric indices) and IQ of preschool children when statistically analysed, it was found that 58.5 percent variation in IQ can be attributed their body measurements. |
