To estimate energy and nutrient intake and adequacyin preschool and school age Mexican children, usingthe National Nutrition Survey 1999 (NNS-1999). Materialand Methods. Twenty four-h dietary recalls from pre-school(n=1 309) and school (n=2 611) children obtained from arepresentative sub-sample of the NNS-1999 were analyzed.Intakes and adequacies were estimated and comparedacross four regions, socio-economic strata, and betweenurban and rural areas, and indigenous vs. non-indigenouschildren. Results. Median energy intake in pre-school childrenwas 949 kcal and in school children 1 377 kcal, withadequacies <70% for both groups. Protein adequacy was>150% in both age groups. The North and Mexico Cityregions had the highest fat intake and the lowest fiber intake.Children in the South region, indigenous children, andthose in the lowest socio-economic stratum had higher fiberand carbohydrate intakes and the lowest fat intake. Thesechildren also showed the highest risks of inadequacies forvitamin A, vitamin C, folate, iron, zinc and calcium. Conclusions.Mexico is experiencing a nutrition transition withinternal inequalities across regions and socio-economicstrata. Food policy must account for these differences inorder to optimize resources directed at social programs.The English version of this paper is available too at: http://www.insp.mx/salud/index.htmlInstituto Nacional de Salud Pública2003info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/articleapplication/pdf0036-3634https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=10609810Salud Pública de México (México) Num.Su4 Vol.45reponame:Redalyc-INSPinstname:Instituto Nacional de Salud Públicainstacron:INSPenhttp://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=106Salud Pública de Méxicoinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessoai:redalyc.org:106098102024-08-23T15:31:21Z
