Book excerpt: The present book highlight ethnographic, demographic, nutritional ecological, economic and cultural profiles in relation to the scenario of food and nutition of five tribal communities of India viz., the Lodhas, the Mahalis, the Koras, the Santals and the Mundas. The study pinpoints nutritional anthropology of the foregoing communities to assess and recommend ameliorative measures. The profiles of different aspects referred to above are interwoven with one another and conjointly provide to frame a holistic picture which would hopefully better equip the readers to assess the anthropo-nutritional problems of the tribal communities and also find out the plausible solution to them. Micro-study of this kind on the tribal population is probably the maiden venture in the Indian context. The book would be helpful to the planners, administrators public health workers, nutritionists, medical personnels, biochemists, sociologists, anthroopologists and other interested in anthropo-nutritional profile of the Indian tribes.

This book was released on 2004 with total page 84 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Much has been written about primary health care in rural India, however research on primary health care in tribal India still needs attention. Tribals in India still continue to suffer from digestive, skin, respiratory and nutritional disorders. This is especially the case amongst women and children. The recent studies by the Tribal Research and Training Institute of Maharashtra. Pune, have demonstrated that malnutrition amongst tribal children below the age of five years is 92 per cent and as high as 70 per cent amongst tribal women. The problem of tribal health and nutrition is linked with social, economic and educational status of the tribals. This book presents issues of concern in tribal health, nutrition and medicine. It provides recommendations to resolve tribal health, nutrition and medicine issues. The book will be useful to students of anthropology, sociology, health sciences, social work, tribal and general readers. Contents: Tribal People in the Indian Context and the Bhils, Nature and Role of Ethnomedical Specialists, Changing Circumstances, Current Health Needs of the Bhils, Recommendations for the Future.

Book excerpt: This book, which is the outcome of a national seminar in India, examines different issues relating to tribal health and nutrition in India, in specific context of their culture, local ecology, voluntary efforts, and institutional intervention. The broad conclusion of the seminar's papers highlights the pitiable conditions in this regard. Scholars have however suggested ways and means to deal with the inhibiting factors that are responsible for the slow and lopsided process of improvement in health and nutritional status of tribes. The book will be a valuable contribution to the field of tribal health and nutrition.

This book was released on 2012-03 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Growth and nutritional studies are valuable as they provide virtuous knowledge on the health status of ethnic groups.The wide spread poverty, illiteracy, malnutrition, absence of safe drinking water and sanitary living conditions, poor maternal and child health services, ineffective coverage of national health and nutritional services, have been traced as significant contributing factors for gloomy health conditions prevailing among these vulnerable population. Such a large vulnerable population in our country is of great concern in view of the extraneous social pressures and their impact on their health conditions. The Indian government as well as state governments have earmarked priority areas of research on tribes to get knowledge in the aspects of growth and nutritional status and ecological conditions of the tribal populations. In Andhra pradesh there are 33 tribal groups living in divergent ecological settings. For the present study, Yanadi, the second largest tribal group with dark-skinned, platyrrhine, below medium stature, longheaded, broad facial profile with a short chin, broad and short nasal features are inhabiting in the Chittoor district of Andhra Pradesh is consider

This book was released on 2018-10-02 with total page 73 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A review of 120 studies published since 2006 was undertaken to examine the relationship between food insecurity at the household or individual level and the following nutrition indicators: child stunting, child wasting, low birth weight, exclusive breastfeeding of infants < 6 months of age, anaemia in women of reproductive age, child overweight and adult obesity. While there is some evidence of a direct association between food insecurity and stunting for children in lower-middle and upper-middle income countries, evidence of links between food insecurity and either child wasting or overweight is almost absent, with the exception of an association with overweight among girls in middle- and high-income countries. The obesity–food insecurity link is most predominant among women in high-income countries, while it is almost absent in men. In addition, food insecurity increases the risk for low birth weight in infants and anaemia in women. Methodological concerns that pose challenges for valid comparison of results relate to study design, data analysis techniques, use of different indicators of household/individual food security and malnutrition, and the limited availability of high-quality micro-level data from large-scale surveys. Most studies report correlation rather than causal associations between food insecurity and nutrition indicators; longitudinal micro-level data from large-scale surveys can help establish causal association and capture the dynamic nature of food insecurity. Food insecurity emerges as a predictor of undernutrition as well as overweight and obesity, highlighting the need for multisectoral strategies and policies to combat food insecurity and multiple forms of malnutrition.

This book was released on 2017 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Our world is transitioning into a new generation of governance with much greater emphasis on targeted actions and mission mode programmes to achieve global sustainable goals (SDG). India with its Twenty-point programme which directly maps national and state programmes to global SDGs has been pacing up for 2030 targets. One of the major programmes that have been the prime focus is the Integrated Child Development Services Scheme. India ranked 103rd among 119 countries on the global hunger index, 2018. Significant reduction in malnutrition was seen among children below 6 years but the pace of reduction has been slow over the past decade. The path of malnutrition reduction of central belt states (tribal population dominant) deviates from the rest of the country. Our analysis of National Family Health Survey-4 (NFHS) found that 42% of tribal children are underweight (i.e. 1.5 times higher than non-tribal children), Over 50% of prevalence of malnutrition is in a tribal population. 100% Mother & Child Protection registration do not reciprocate to 100% all Anti-Natal Care visits showing faults in monitoring system indicating that the investment by government in all fronts, economic development has not translated into the desired reduction in malnutrition. Their 8.6% population accounts to 30% cases of malaria translating to 50% malarial deaths indicative of higher disease burden. Malnutrition crisis among tribals begins way early manifesting in higher rates of Low Birth Weight deliveries (LBW) which is 3-4% higher compared to the non-tribal population. This is due to low nutrient diet, laborious work during the gestational period and high disease burden. The focus of Maternal nutrition enhancement projects by Tribal Welfare Depts in these states should include nutrition-sensitive along with nutrition-specific interventions targeting the population under risk as well as entering risk. Now with district-level data (NFHS) available every 4 years can aid in district level planning, shifting focus from population-based to the prevalence and exclusive planning for tribals. Our study involves developing a robust framework to enhance maternal nutrition through strong community mobilization and partnership. It also addresses the convergence issue being faced in the current system and paves a way forward for convergence among interdepartmental schemes for larger participation by people and greater coverage of the scheme and its benefits.
