Abstract
The diets consumed by a large majority of weaned infants and preschool children in India and other developing countries are based mainly on cereals, ischolar_mains and tubers and are lacking in protective foods such as milk, eggs, meat and fish. This serious dietary deficiency will damage the health, and growth of children and possibly impair their mental development.
