调查表明，Keneba老村庄土著人的健康状况很差，他们应付生理和病理压力（怀孕和寄生虫或疾病）的储备很低。在这种情况下，很难形成和维持对攻击的免疫力。营养不良（由于几乎完全是谷物饮食）和寄生（几乎普遍）的综合力量是限制这些原始人进步和发展的主要因素。
The survey indicates that the health of the natives in the o.ld village of Keneba is marginal and that their reserves to meet physiological and pathological stresses (pregnancy and parasitism or disease) are low. Immunity to attack is hard to develop and difficult to maintain under such conditions. The combined forces of malnutrition (due to an almost completely cereal diet) and parasitism (nearly universal) are major factors in limiting the progress and develop- ment of these primitive peoples.
