    A systematic review of the nutritional adequacy of the diet in the Central Andes.
    (National Institutes of Health, 2014) Peter R. Berti; Cynthia Fallu; Yesmina Cruz Agudo
    The inadequate intake of some micronutrients is common in many developing countries, but the extremely low intake of dietary fat found in the central Andes is not. Increased consumption of animal-source foods would increase fat intakes, while addressing micronutrient deficiencies; however, the impact on the fragile ecosystem of the Andes needs considering. Indigenous crops, such as lupine bean, quinoa, and amaranth are also rich in fat or micronutrients.
