We conducted a nutrition study on 30 boys aged 12 to 16 years living in a national home for resocialization of minors for juvenile delinquents by comparing their food intake and dietary habits before and after seven months of their admission to the institution.<BR>Their unbalanced and irregular dietary conditions priory to admission were improved after seven months. Trace elements in the hair samples considered to indicate nutritional conditions were measured before and after the seven-month stay and the differences were identified. The following result was obtained.<BR>1) Comparison of trace elements in the hair samples of those who had spent more than seven months in the institution and those who just entered revealed that;(1) essential minerals such as calcium, magnesium, iron, copper, zinc, chromium, manganese and selenium increased significantly;(2) essential minerals such as sodium, potassium and cobalt decreased significantly;(3) essential minerals such as phosphorus and molybdenum did not show significant differences in content.<BR>2) Toxic minerals such as lead and mercury decreased significantly, whereas cadmium and arsenic did not show significant differences and aluminum increased significantly.<BR>It is presumed from the above that there was a close relation between the food intake and the trace minerals contained in hair. The mental life of the boys seemed to have changed gradually. Hair analysis which can be performed easily and painlessly is a helpful tool for improving nutrition and for preventive medicine.
