Migration might have considerable implications for nutrition and consequently for health. Because of the higher demands of growth, children are especially vulnerable to changes in nutrition. In order to get an insight into the need for a special nutrition policy for Turkish ad Moroccan children, the dietary habits and food consumption of 8-year-old Turkish and Moroccan children in The Netherlands were assessed. The results showed that the diet of these children was more compatible with the Dutch recommendations for a prudent diet than the diet of Dutch children from a similar socio-economic background. Quite a few of the basic food items Turkish and Moroccan children are accustomed to eat, like rice, cereals, bread, pulses and vegetables, contain valuable nutrients. So, an increased consumption of these items was recommended. The intake of calcium and riboflavin of Turkish and Moroccan children was low and so the use of dairy products--preferably in fermented form like yoghurt--was recommended. This would also enhance the Vitamin D status.
移民可能对营养进而对健康产生重大影响。由于生长需求较高，儿童尤其容易受到营养变化的影响。为了深入了解为土耳其和摩洛哥儿童制定特殊营养政策的必要性，对荷兰8岁的土耳其和摩洛哥儿童的饮食习惯和食物消费情况进行了评估。结果表明，与来自类似社会经济背景的荷兰儿童的饮食相比，这些儿童的饮食与荷兰关于谨慎饮食的建议更为相符。土耳其和摩洛哥儿童习惯食用的不少基本食物，如大米、谷物、面包、豆类和蔬菜，都含有宝贵的营养成分。因此，建议增加这些食物的摄入量。土耳其和摩洛哥儿童的钙和核黄素摄入量较低，因此建议食用乳制品——最好是像酸奶这样的发酵形式。这也将提高维生素D水平。
