Thank you Liz - DHS.

The Guide to DHS Statistics helped lots. But i would like to be clear of this area; "Minimum meal frequency", should i just use "Any solid or semisolid" food variable or i should create an index from the the following variables;
a) Infant formula
b) Other milk/cheese/yogurt
c) Other liquids (does not include plain water)
d) Food made from grains
e) Fruits/vegetables (include fruits and vegetables rich in vitamin A)
f) Food made from roots/tubers
g) Food made from legumes
h) Meat/fish/shellfish/poultry/eggs
i) Food made with oil/fat/butter
j) Fruits and vegetables rich in vitamin A (includes pumpkin, red or yellow yams or squash,
carrots, red sweet potatoes, green leafy vegetables, mangos, papayas, and other locally
grown fruits and vegetables that are rich in vitamin A)
