Indigenous concepts about nutrition are not comparable with the concepts of nutrition and malnutrition from the perspective of biological quantification.

Los conceptos indígenas sobre la nutrición no son equiparables a los conceptos sobre nutrición y desnutrición desde cuantificaciones biológicas. Para los nativos la formación del cuerpo se inicia desde los mitos de origen, el trabajo cotidiano, la relación con los seres de la naturaleza y los cuidados necesarios para los niños. Para los profesionales de la salud, en contraste, la concepción del cuerpo humano se fundamenta en una lógica biológica, nutricional y antropométrica. Este artículo muestra las diferencias entre estas dos visiones, por lo que es necesaria una reflexión intercultural para que puedan ser complementarias, ayudando a evitar muertes infantiles asociadas a deficiencias nutricionales.application/pdfspaUniversidad Nacional de Colombiahttp://revistas.unal.edu.co/index.php/imanimundo/article/view/13963Universidad Nacional de Colombia Revistas electrónicas UN Mundo AmazonicoMundo AmazonicoMundo Amazonico; Vol. 2 (2011); 249-270 Mundo Amazónico; Vol. 2 (2011); 249-270 Mundo Amazónico; Vol. 2 (2011); 249-270 2145-5082 2145-5074León Taborda, Ana María (2011) Intercultural interpretations about concepts of nutrition: body formation among the tikuna indians of the colombian amazon trapeze.
