Anil Gupta, -

DOI : 10.9780/22307850, By : Laxmi Book Publication

Abstract :

Health of children is dependent on nutritious food, proper weaning, good hygiene practices. Inadequate calories upshots into malnutrition. Few children adopt inappropriate behavior and start eating soil. This habit untowardly effects health of children. Study was done to assess the effect of geophagy on health of children. It involved children under five year old, selected from schools (240/440), anganwadi (127/440) and slum areas (73/440). Children with habit of geophagy were seen to be under-weight, (O R = 15.7, p<0.0001)). Also, wasting was more prevalent in soil eating children, (O R = 22.89, p<0.0001).
