Abstract


If human beings are to be properly nourished they must have enough food to eat and the right kind of food to eat. In India we are faced with the problems of obtaining enough food for the people and the right kind of food. The former takes precedence over the latter. A considerable part of the population is under- fed in the quantitative sense-as the nutrition workers say, food intake falls short of calorie requirements. What proportion lacks sufficient lood we do not exactly know, but recent dietary investigations suggest that it is no small one. In some parts of the country the danger of famine is always imminent.
