Abstract

It has been known for many years now that protein malnutrition is an important cause of infant and child mortality, stunted physical growth, low work output, premature ageing and reduced life span in the developing world. Recent research has also revealed the strong possibility of a link between malnutrition and retarded mental development, the first few years of a child's life and more particularly the first year being the most crucial period in this respect.
