Abstract
Background Although the prevalence of bone cancer and the performing mortality are veritably high in Morocco, no study has been carried out on the part of the nutritive factors in the development of BC. ideal The ideal of this study was to assess the nutritive profile of women with BC in southern Morocco styles The study was conducted with 91 women with bone cancer. Face- to- facesemi-structured interviews were used for the assessment of the nutritive profile and the collection of socio- profitable data. Biometric measures were carried out in parallel. Results The results showed that postmenopausal women had a significantly advanced mean weight and Body Mass Index thannon-menopausal women( p<0.015). The maturity of cases( 79) had energy inputs above recommendations. The proportion of lipids was inordinate in 46 of cases. Inputs of impregnated adipose acids were high in 14 of cases. But those of unsaturated adipose acids were high in over 50 of cases. About 58 had a veritably high input of fast sugars. Cholesterol input was high in 40 of cases. Vitamins A, E and D were handed in small quantities, independently in 66, 45 and 91 of cases. Likewise, inputs were low for water-answerable vitamins, especially Vitamins B9(62.6) and B12( 54). nearly the maturity of actors in our study( 92) had veritably low calcium inputs. Inputs of magnesium, zinc and selenium were inadequate in 43, 35 and 48 of cases independently. Conclusion rotundity, inordinate energy and sugar input, as well as mineral and vitamin scarcities could explain the high prevalence of bone cancer in southern Morocco. A balanced diet would fight against bone cancer.
