Reflections of Dietary Studies With Children in the Ten-State Nutrition Survey of 1968-1970

Charles U. Lowe M.D., Gilbert Forbes M.D., Stanley Garn PH.D., George M. Owen M.D., Nathan J. Smith M.D., William B. Weil Jr. M.D., and Milton Z. Nichaman M.D.

Physical (anthropometric) and biochemical evidence of malnutrition or of " nutritional risk" among children in the Ten-State Nutrition Survey reflected primarily an inadequacy of total energy intake and not improper selection of foods or "unbalanced" diets. Thus, the quantity of food—not the quality—was the major dietary problem highlighted by the Ten-State Nutrition Survey.
