Liver is widely eaten by preschool children in the Northern Cape province of South Africa
Previous research has demonstrated a virtual absence of vitamin A deficiency and adequacy of vitamin A intake through consumption of liver in preschool children of a community in the Northern Cape province of South Africa where sheep farming is common, and liver, an exceptionally rich source of vitamin A, is frequently eaten. Only 60-75 g of liver per month is needed to meet the vitamin A requirement of preschool children. Because this may have i…
Serum retinol in post‐partum mothers and newborns from an impoverished South African community where liver is frequently eaten and vitamin A deficiency is absent
Serum retinol was assessed in mothers and newborns from an impoverished South African community where liver is frequently eaten and vitamin A deficiency known to be absent. Paired cord and maternal blood (n = 201) were collected after delivery and analysed for serum retinol and C-reactive protein (CRP). Liver intake during pregnancy and intention to breastfeed were also assessed. Mean serum retinol was 1.03 μmol/L ± 0.40 in mothers and 0.73 ± 0.2…
Liver intake in 24–59-month-old children from an impoverished South African community provides enough vitamin A to meet requirements
Objective To assess the contribution of liver to the vitamin A intake of 24–59-month-old children from an impoverished South African community where liver is frequently consumed and vitamin A deficiency previously shown to be absent. Design Cross-sectional. Setting Northern Cape Province, South Africa. Subjects Children aged 24–59 months ( n 150). Vitamin A intake from liver was assessed using a single 24 h recall and a quantified liver frequency…
Serum retinol in 1–6-year-old children from a low socio-economic South African community with a high intake of liver
Objective To assess serum retinol, liver intake patterns, breast-feeding history and anthropometric status in pre-school children of a low socio-economic community where liver is regularly consumed. Design Cross-sectional study. Setting Northern Cape Province, South Africa. Subjects Children aged 1–6 years ( n 243) who attended the local primary health-care facility and had not received a vitamin A supplement in the 6 months preceding the study. …
