The author collected data from 573, 98 and 1059 severely malnourished adults, admitted to therapeutic feeding centres in Baidoa (Somalia) during 1992-3, Ayod (Sudan) during 1993 and Melanje (Angola) during 1993-4. The data collected are unique, recording recovery from extremes of adult starvation hitherto undocumented in the medical literature. All the centres were very rudimentary in nature, with no beds, running water, electricity or equipment for special investigations. Mortality rates in the Somalia centre were 21%; war disrupted the collection of outcome data in die centres in Sudan and Angola.

Student groups will play the part of aid organizations competing for funds to assist a fictitious village that has experienced a natural disaster and is now in a food crisis. They will research various aspects of micronutrient deficiencies and the logistics involved in delivering emergency rations to a village in crisis. They will then work in groups to develop and present an intervention plan. To complete these activities, students should have prior knowledge of macronutrients (carbohydrates, proteins, and fats) and how they help the body to function. Learning Outcomes • The student will be able to explain the roles vitamin A, iron, and iodine play in a healthy body. • The student will be able to describe the symptoms of vitamin A, iron, and iodine deficiencies.

  • The Use of Whey Or Skimmed Milk Powder in Fortified Blended Foods
    Supplemental Material can be found at: http://jn.nutrition.org/content/suppl/2008/07/11/138.1.145S.D C1.html The Journal of Nutrition The Use of Whey or Skimmed Milk Powder in Fortified Blended Foods for Vulnerable Groups: A Literature Review The Use of Whey or Skimmed Milk Powder in Fortified Blended Foods for Vulnerable Groups1,2 Camilla Hoppe, Gregers S. Andersen, Stine Jacobsen, Christian Mølgaard, Henrik Friis, Per T. Sangild, and Kim F. Michaelsen* Department of Human Nutrition, Faculty of Life Sciences, University of Copenhagen, DK-1958 Frederiksberg, Denmark Abstract Fortified blended foods (FBF), especially corn soy blend, are used as food aid for millions of people worldwide, especially malnourished individuals and vulnerable groups. There are only a few studies evaluating the effect of FBF on health outcomes, and the potential negative effect of antinutrients has not been examined. Different lines of evidence suggest that dairy proteins have beneficial effects on vulnerable groups. Here we review the evidence on the effects of adding Downloaded from whey or skimmed milk powder to FBF used for malnourished infants and young children or people living with HIV or AIDS. Adding whey or skimmed milk powder to FBF improves the protein quality, allowing a reduction in total amount of protein, which could have potential metabolic advantages. It also allows for a reduced content of soy and cereal and thereby a reduction of potential antinutrients. It is possible that adding milk could improve weight gain, linear growth, and recovery from malnutrition, but this needs to be confirmed. Bioactive factors in whey might have beneficial effects on the immune jn.nutrition.org system and muscle synthesis, but evidence from vulnerable groups is lacking.

  • Guidance for Approaches for Management of Acute Malnutrition
    Guidance for Approaches for Management of Acute Malnutrition (Taskforce for Management of Acute Malnutrition– Somalia Nutrition Cluster) November 2009 (Version 10) A. Introduction Somalia has experienced persistent critical levels of malnutrition over years and the challenges of widespread insecurity and the associated limited in-country capacities have compounded an already dire humanitarian situation. In an effort to enhance the humanitarian response, the Nutrition Cluster’s task force for Management of Acute Malnutrition aims to provide guidance for programming for the treatment of severe and moderate malnutrition management as well as its prevention in Somalia. Currently, there are inconsistencies in programmes implementation in terms of nutrition products used, implementation modalities and the characteristics and environmental conditions of the target population. Further with the challenge of limited funding, guidance is needed on how to prioritize the available resources to those most in need in the most effective manner. Ongoing efforts by UNICEF and WFP and others, to expand their nutrition programmes through use of blanket fortified blended food distribution and use of ready to use food (RUF) or Lipid Based Nutrient Supplements (LNS) either as complements or by changing intervention strategies, creating further demand for guidance. This paper aims to provide guidance on the use of various products, target populations and new strategies vis-à-vis the existing programmes to appropriately guide decision makers, sponsoring agencies and donor. The guidance is also intended to ensure a greater coverage of these programmes and to reduce gaps and overlaps of approaches. The paper is structured to provide background on a) Available products, b) Approaches to manage acute malnutrition, c) Nutritionally vulnerable groups, and d) Scenario’s for decision making.

  • Evolution of Nutritional Management of Acute Malnutrition
    R E V I E W A R T I C L E Evolution of Nutritional Management of Acute Malnutrition MICHAEL H GOLDEN Emeritus Professor, University of Aberdeen, Scotland. Correspondence to: Pollgorm, Ardbane, Downings, County Donegal, Ireland. [email protected], [email protected] Wasting, kwashiorkor and stunting are not usually due to either protein or energy deficiency. Treatment based upon this concept results in high mortality rates, and failure of treated children to return physiologically to normal. They become relatively obese with insufficient lean tissue. Preventive strategies have also failed. Wasting and stunting are primarily due to deficiency of type II nutrients and kwashiorkor probably due to deficiency of several type I nutrients that confer resistance to oxidative stress. Modern dietary treatments are based upon the F75 formula whilst the child is sick without an appetite, followed by F100 for rapid gain of weight. Derivative, ready-to-use therapeutic foods (RUTF) allow treatment of large numbers of children at home, are preferred by mothers and dramatically improve coverage. Children are indentified by screening in the community and treated before complications arise, using simple protocols. Successful treatment of the sick children with severe malnutrition not only depends upon these products, but appropriate management of complications. The physiology of the malnourished child is completely different from the normal child and many drugs and treatments that are safe in children with normal physiology are fatal for the malnourished child. In particular, the diagnosis and management of diarrhea and dehydration is different in the malnourished child. Giving standard treatment frequently leads to circulatory overload and death from heart failure.

  • Management of Moderate Malnutrition in Under-5 Children by the Health Sector
    1 Management of moderate malnutrition in under-5 children by the health sector Background document for an informal technical consultation on the dietary management of moderate malnutrition - September 30 th - October 3 rd . I - BACKGROUND Introduction Moderate malnutrition (MM) is defined as a weight-for-age between -3 and -2 z-scores below the median of the WHO child growth standards. It can be due to a low weight-for- height (wasting) or a low height-for-age (stunting) or to a combination of both. Similarly, moderate wasting and stunting are defined as a weight-for-height and height-for-age, respectively, between -3 and -2 z-scores. MM affects many children in poor countries. Children with moderate malnutrition have an increased risk of mortality and MM is associated with a high number of nutrition- related deaths.1 If some of these moderately malnourished children do not receive adequate support, they may progress towards severe acute malnutrition (severe wasting and/or oedema) or severe stunting (height-for-age less than -3 z-scores), which are both life-threatening conditions. Therefore, the management of MM should be a public health priority. In contrast to severe malnutrition, programmes for the management of MM in children have remained virtually unchanged for the past 30 years, and it seems timely to review efforts to improve their efficacy and effectiveness. Scope of the meeting The meeting will focus on the dietary management of children with MM. It will aim to answer the question of "What diets should be recommended to feed moderately malnourished children?". The meeting will examine separately the management of moderately wasted and of moderately and severely stunted children.

  • Nutrition Guidelines
    FOREWORD UNHCR, UNICEF, WFP and WHO have jointly developed these guidelines as a practical tool for assessing, estimating and monitoring the food and nutrition needs of populations in emergencies. Major food shortages can be a primary feature of an emergency, as in droughts or floods that lead to famine, or they may be a consequence of war, economic disaster, or population displacement. The often serious protein-energy malnutrition and micronutrient deficiencies that inevitably follow such shortages add greatly to the burden of disease and mortality, slow - or even impede altogether - socioeconomic recovery, and make intense additional demands on scarce resources. The guidelines are aimed at field staff involved in planning and delivering a basic general food ration for emergency-affected populations. Their overall aim is to promote timely, coordinated and effective action through improved understanding of food and nutrition needs during emergencies. Graeme A.

They kill large numbers of people, especially women and children; impoverish whole populations; encourage the spread of disease and malnutrition, dislocate families, villages, and even entire societies, and create or spread political instability. Famines and the conflicts that often create and spread^ them leave wounds in a society that may take generations to heal. There are two types of famines: those that are a result of a lack of food and those that are a result of a lack of purchasing power among the poor.1 Of the two, the latter is the most prevalent. To combat famines, there are two general approaches: provision of food and provision of economic support. The relative effectiveness of each is determined by when the assistance is applied. In most cases, food relief alone has only a limited impact and is often counterproductive.

This background paper was presented at the WHO, UNICEF, WFP and UNHCR Consultation on the Dietary Management of Moderate Malnutrition in Under-5 Children by the Health Sector September 30th October 3rd, 2008 - 1 - Abstract Reducing child malnutrition requires nutritious food, breastfeeding, improved hygiene, health services, and (prenatal) care. Poverty and food insecurity seriously constrain accessibility of nutritious diets, including high protein quality, adequate micronutrient content and bioavailability, macro-minerals and essential fatty acids, low anti-nutrient content, and high nutrient density. Largely plant-source-based diets with few animal source and fortified foods do not meet these requirements and need to be improved by processing (dehulling, germinating, fermenting), fortification, and adding animal source foods, e.g. milk, or other specific nutrients.
