Weighed dietary intakes were carried out on 50 non-pregnant women and unemployed men in three villages in the Ok Tedi region. Mean energy intakes were lowest in Wangbin, the village closest to the Ok Tedi mining operation, and highest in the most remote village, Atemkit. Mean protein intakes were highest in Bultem II and somewhat lower in Wangbin and Atemkit. Though very few individuals achieved the WHO/FAO recommended daily allowances for energy, a majority achieved it for protein. As a result of increased consumption of tradestore foods, the quality of the diet of Wopkaimin people directly involved in mining operations has improved. However, social stresses induced by these operations have resulted in uneven distribution of this new wealth, and there are cases of genuine food shortages in the midst of plenty.
对奥克泰迪地区三个村庄的50名未怀孕妇女和失业男子进行了膳食摄入量称重调查。平均能量摄入量在离奥克泰迪采矿作业最近的旺宾村最低，在最偏远的阿泰姆基特村最高。平均蛋白质摄入量在布尔滕二号村最高，在旺宾村和阿泰姆基特村略低。虽然很少有人达到世界卫生组织/联合国粮农组织推荐的每日能量摄入量，但大多数人达到了蛋白质摄入量标准。由于商店食品消费增加，直接参与采矿作业的沃普凯明人的饮食质量有所改善。然而，这些作业引发的社会压力导致了这种新财富分配不均，在食物充足的情况下仍有真正的粮食短缺情况。
