Background Malnutrition, including undernutrition and micronutrient deficiencies is a chronic problem in most developing countries. Animal-source foods (ASFs) provide essential sources of proteins and micronutrients, yet little is known about ASF consumption patterns or household preferences towa...


Cornelsen, L.Alarcón, PabloHäsler, BarbaraAmendah, D.D.Ferguson, E.Fèvre, Eric M.Grace, DeliaDomínguez Salas, PaulaRushton, Jonathan[Cross-sectional study of drivers of animal-source food consumption in low-income urban areas of Nairobi, Kenya]Cross-sectional study of drivers of animal-source food consumption in low-income urban areas of Nairobi, Kenya

Introduction: Research on livestock food systems in developing countries remains limited yet these systems are undergoing rapid and ongoing changes. Poultry meat in Nairobi is a good case study to investigate the changes that result from increasing demand for animal protein1, in particular how di...

Introduction: Beef, sheep and goat meat consumption provides essential nutrients in highly bioavailable form, and poses a zoonotic pathogen threat. In Nairobi, these luxury products are difficult to access by poor households, yet little is known on the city’s food system in terms of food safety a...

In Nairobi, with 3.1 million consumers and 30,000 pigs, the pork system may represents a major source of zoonotic pathogens. Yet, this system and its public health risks have not been described. The study used value chain analysis, a well-known method in economics, to investigate zoonosis and foo...
