Abstract

In an earlier publication, it was reported that a daily supplement of 53g of a protein food based on 4:4:2 blend of groundnut, Bengal gram and sesame flours and fortified with essential vitamins and calcium salts, over a period of 6 months made up the dietary deficiencies and brought about marked improvement in their growth and nutritional status.1 The present paper deals with studies on the retention of nitrogen, calcium and phosphorus in two groups of children receiving the basal diet and the same supplemented with the protein food.
