| dc.description.abstract | Anthropometry – the measurement of body size and proportion – is an objective component of a comprehensive nutrition assessment. As such, it is intended to give a true (accurate and precise) reflection of the reality which one wants to observe. This applies to dietetic and clinical practice as well as the scientific study of growth and nutritional status throughout the life cycle. Measurements of weight and the height/length of the human body are the foundation of anthropometric assessment. True values for these parameters are obtained through measurement, using calibrated equipment and appropriate technique. | en_US |
