The authors submit the results of supplementation of the child population with a preparation containing amino acids, polypeptides and nucleotides with an increased iron and zinc content. A significant and non-specific immunity with an impact on reduced morbidity of children to whom the preparation was administered, as compared with children on placebo. The authors investigated factors of secretory immunity and significant findings were revealed in particular in values of the secretory index (ratio of SIgA and albumin) and in the frequency of low albumin values in children influenced by the active substance. In supplemented children a significantly lower frequency of diseases and shorter periods of morbidity were recorded. The results are discussed in particular in relation to new aspects of supplementation of population groups at risk.
Key words: board supplementation - immunity - morbidity - children
