Research Abstract

The aim of this study was to determine the physical activity and the nutrient intake of the children from agricultural and urban areas in Nepal, and to determine the effect that such differences have in changes in the body composition of children. Data from 1, 352 children ranging from 3 to 12 years of age were used for these analyses. A significant local difference was found in the physical activity and nutrient intake. The total energy consumption of the children in agricultural areas was higher than in urban areas, and the total energy intake of the urban children was higher than that of children from agricultural areas. The difference in these energy balances led to differences in the fat mass, but not in the fat-free mass. These results suggested that the establishment of desirable exercise habits and eating habits from childhood was necessary.
