Abstract

Objective: Investigate the nutritional status and dietary intake of children with allergy to cow ‘s milk protein of up to three years of age accompanied by a children’s hospital, in Brasilia, Brazil.
Methods: This is a descriptive cross-sectional and prospective study. Weight and height of children were measured to determine nutritional status through z-score of WHO’s curves. The characterization and consumption of infant formulas specific to CMPA were collected through questionnaire and 24h recall. There contribution of protein-calorie, calcium, vitamin D and essential fatty acids in relation to the DRIs was verrified.
Results: 76.5% were term newborns, with cesarean section (73.5%) and with adequate birth weight (85.3%). E / I (91.2%), P / I (88.3%), P / E (88.2%) and BMI / I (85.3%) were found to be adequate. 17.6% of the sample had EMA up to 6 months and 94.1% of the children were not breastfed. The mean age of introduction of complementary feeding was 5.16 ± 1.47 months and 54.5% received complementary feeding before 6 months. The percentage of children who transgressed the diet was 11.8%. The widely hydrolyzed formula was the most used (64.7%) and 5.9% did not receive infant formula. The mean contribution percentages of infant formulas in relation to DRIs were: 45.72% (EER), 80.21% (protein), 76.9% (calcium), 176.64% (vitamin D), 34.77 % (w3) and 24.87% (w6).
Conclusion: The results of this study indicate that weaning and introduction of complementary foods was early in this sample. Infant formulas used were specific for CMPA and contributed to achieve the nutritional recommendations for age. The results suggest that the prescribed formulas contribute to adequate nutritional status of these children. The continuing education of the population, nutritional counseling and dairy products diet free are necessary to avoid the negative impact of CMPA in children.
