| Research Abstract |
In a marginal area of Kenya, anthropological research on breastfeeding practices and nutritional epidemiological research were carried out using households with children under 5 years of age. For the chronic malnutrition, it has been clarified that a foodpattern rich in zinc acted prophylactically; and a legumes-based food patternpromoted anemia. Result of anthropological study on breast feeding, the region-specific"interpretation" of the infant "illness" leaded to interruption of breastfeeding and toadministration of food other than breast milk like herbs prescribed by traditional healers. It is necessary to consider future educational programs in accordance with the age and local perception in illness.
