The authors analyzed the nutritive value of Nutriene V (maize, beans, milk) in 1- to 5-year-old children with malnutrition who were admitted to a Nutritional Education and Rehabilitation Center for 4 months.

The children received a diet that met 100% of the recommended dietary allowances; 60% of the protein was derived from Nutriene V.

The biochemical, acceptance, and tolerance data, as well as the clinical signs, anthropometric measurements, and the pathological symptoms are presented.

From these data, it was concluded that Nutriene V has a high nutritive value and could be commercially produced for use in supervised feeding progams.
