There are about 400 tribal groups in India constituting about 8 per cent of the countrys' population. Their habitat are scattered in the country in varied ecological and climatic conditions. Their population is mainly concentrated in the states like Chatisgarh, Madhya Pradesh, Uttar Pradesh, Jharkhand, Bihar, Orissa, Andhra Pradesh, Maharashtra, Gujrat and Rajasthan. Studies in tribal foods and nutrition have only recently been receiving interest. Most of the work has been concentrated on the tribals of Central and Southern India. Wide variations have been noted concerning their nutritional aspects from place to place.- Absorption of Aluminium Ions by some Raw Food Items and Effect of Some Natural Chelating Compounds on the Absorption

Aluminium is the most abundant metal in the biosphere. Despite abundance, aluminium does not have any usetul biological function. Rather, it causes potential toxicity and health hazard when ingested in excess. Aluminium ingestion has been implicated in diseases like osteomalacia, dialysis encephalopathy and Alzheimer's disease. Aluminium may enter into the body through food, water or air borne dust particles. Its toxicology through environment and food has been studied. The extensive use of aluminium cookware and food packaging material and use of aluminium salts in food additives and some drugs provide other potential sources of aluminium ingestion. Aluminium in the food additives are mainly in the form of sodium aluminium phosphate, sodium aluminium sulphate, aluminium silicate etc., Aluminium absorption by foods from cooking utensils is a function of pH of cooking medium and chemical nature of food.- Studies on Aluminium Toxicity through Cooking Utensils in the Foods of Tribals of Purnia District (Bihar)
