Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In modern Nepal, which is a multi-ethnic country and whose lifestyle including eating habits has been changing, I tried to develop guidelines for complementary feeding that suits the lifestyles, living areas, mothers' consciousness and eating environment of each ethnic group. In addition to being unable to conduct a survey in Nepal to prevent the spread of COVID-19, I was ill and could not proceed with the research as planned. A literature review on complementary feeding showed that it is necessary to conduct surveys regarding the start time, content, how to eat and preparation of complementary food to develop guidelines for complementary feeding in Nepal.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
多民族国家であり、居住環境が地域によって大きく異なるネパールにおいて、子どもや女性の栄養状態を改善するための教材等は、栄養不足に対応した内容のものが主であったが、栄養転換(栄養不足から栄養過多への移行)が進んでいる状況もふまえ、現代のネパールの文脈、つまりそれぞれの民族の生活や居住地域、母親の意識や食環境にあった離乳食のガイドラインが必要であることを示唆した。
