[An alternative for brazilian nutritional policy?].
This article focuses on the alternative nutrition policy as a public policy issue. It discusses such important and controversial questions as the efficacy and safety of multimixture. It also analyzes six epidemiological studies focusing on the evaluation of the reliability of results. The article concludes that the numerous ambiguities, gaps, and contradictions in knowledge concerning alternative nutrition do not support the incorporation of this intervention proposal as a food and nutritional policy for Brazil.
