title: [Nutrition studies in the mid valley of Senegal. 2. Nutritional health of the population and its trends].
abstract: A nutritional survey performed in the Senegal mid valley in 1983 including 610 individuals shows that mild to moderate protein-energy malnutrition, specific deficiencies and anemia are still present. In addition new health hazards such as overweight and perhaps high blood pressure, raise and may burden public health welfare in that area.
