Abstract

Mr. Editor:

As we celebrate 22 years of operation of the Center for Immuno Nutritional Recovery (CRIN), we saw the need to evaluate the results of the different researches obtained in this center.

We consider that the seriousness of micronutrient deficiency in developing countries such as Bolivia is not appreciated in its true magnitude, possibly because of the pre elaborated programs that distract our reflection, or, for lack of diffusion of researches that are carried out in the context itself.
