[Study of weaning foods in infants in Brazzaville].
The authors have searched the characteristics of weaning for 400 children from 0 to 24 months examined in mother and child health centre of Brazzaville. The study has revealed that the exclusive feeding to the breast is the predominant method (81.5%). The weaning paps utilized are in great part local (64.3%) but their preparation and their method of keeping them constitute a real problem. The sudden weaning has been observed in 87.2% of the cases. The recommended feeding square wasn't yet regarded so that the protidic foods were little consumed (44.0%) as well as protective foods too (50.4%).
