The present study analyzed and compared the daily consumption of foods of animal origin in eleven communities of the Lower Amazon, Trombetas and Purus Rivers, representing three different management systems and levels of conservation in the Brazilian Amazon. All food items of animal origin were weighed by at least 10% of the families in the study communities during a week in each period of the flood cycle between 2006 and 2008. Fish was the most important food, and was consumed during six days of the week, with an average rate of 169 kg.person-1.year-1. Game was second in importance, with 37 kg.person-1.year-1. This yearly rate of fish consumption is one of the highest in the world and is almost double the minimum recommended by the World Health Organization. The dietary patterns reflect both the isolation of the communities from large urban centers and the better preservation of the local environments due to the existence of protected areas. Environmental degradation may thus have effects on the health and food security of local populations. The study emphasizes the need for the implementation of public policies and participative management initiatives.

(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2006-06-26) MENDES, Patrícia Miranda; ACEVEDO MARIN, Rosa Elizabeth; http://lattes.cnpq.br/0087693866786684
In this research the slight knowledge of alimentary security are presented, sovereignty and the dynamics of groups quilombolas through the analysis and quarrel of the alimentary diet and its transformations in the communities of the Cacau and Santo Antonio from the study of the ways of acquisition, social relations and its influence in the health of populations. The feeding system of the localities passes for a process of change occasioned, over all by the exhaustion of the nature resources associated with the population growth and the external pressure on the territories making it demands for more financial resources for its acquisition, what contributes in negative way in the diet, beyond causing changes in the alimentary habits. The feeding effect on social groups diet is demonstrated through a nutritional evaluation executed among the families members (adult, adolescent and children). Thus a comparison among the research results in the two communities is done so that the differences and the singularities in relation to the alimentary and nutricional security are observed.
