To describe the methods and analyses of the1999 National Nutrition Survey (NNS-99). Material andMethods. The 1999 National Nutrition Survey (NNS-99)is a probabilistic survey with nationwide representativity.The NNS-99 included four regions and urban and ruralareas of Mexico. The last sampling units were households,selected through stratified cluster sampling. The study populationconsisted of children under five years of age, schoolagechildren (6-11 years), and women of childbearing age(12-49 years). Data were collected on anthropometric measurements,hemoglobin levels, morbidity and its determinants,and socioeconomic and demographic characteristics.In addition, data on diet and micronutrients intakes (iron,zinc, vitamin A, folic acid, vitamin C, and iodine) were obtainedin a sub-sample of subjects. Results. The response rate forthe NNS-99 was 82.3%; the non-response rate was 5.9%and the remaining did not participate due to uninhabitedhouses. Conclusions. This survey updates the informationon nutritional status in Mexico and should serve as the basisfor food and nutrition policy-making and priority programdesign.
