Dietary intake in asylum seeker children in The Netherlands, strongly related to age and origin.

Abstract:

OBJECTIVE:To monitor the dietary intake of energy, macro- and micronutrients in asylum seeker children. DESIGN AND SETTING:Cross-sectional study in three asylum seeker centres in The Netherlands. SUBJECTS:Hundred and sixteen children 2-12 years old (86% of the study cohort) provided a dietary history. METHOD:The dietary intake was estimated by 24 h recall, and the origin of the children was classified in three geographic regions: African (n=45), Central Asia (n=34) or Eastern Europe (n=37). RESULTS:The total energy intake from fat was in 24% of the children above 40En%. Seventy per cent of the children above 4 year of age had a saturated fat intake above 10En%. The children from Eastern Europe had a higher intake of fat and disaccharides than the children from the other regions. Among the children, an intake less than 80% of the recommended daily allowances of micronutrients was found for calcium (42%), iron (49%), vitamin A (45%) and vitamin D (80%). An inadequate dietary intake of iron and vitamin D was significantly more seen among the youngest children, whereas an inadequate intake of calcium and vitamin A was found more among the elder children. CONCLUSIONS:The dietary intake of a prominent proportion of these children contains too much fat and insufficient amounts of calcium, iron, vitamin A and vitamin D. The low micronutrient intake of the asylum seeker children can be considered as a nutritional risk. Nutritional education and strategies to improve the macro- and micronutrient intake of asylum seeker children is indicated.
