It varies from each atoll, and it is very hard to find out what the diet is at any one place. So we have two surveys that have been conducted, the most detailed that we know of. We have also looked at other reports. A report called the Lohr* Report from Majuro a few years ago and some reports from a lady named _.’ who used to be in the Marshall Islands and did diet studies. We have tried to find al} the information that we can in the literature concerning the diets in the Marshall Islands, and the best we can do, we have a range of information available to us, so we calculated the dose for both, both ends of that, to show that there is a range, a range of - information available. Marshallese: Robison: Did one of those diets come from Ujelang? Yes, one of the sets of numbers we give in here is based upon the Ujelang diet. The other is based upon the Brookhaven diet. diet is the higher numbers. The Brookhaven And, just let me complete that, and the Brookhaven numbers, the higher numbers, are the ones that were used to give estimates on the paper they have. Marshallese: I feel that all of the atolls, including Ujelang which is one of your samples which is one of the diets used, are in the northern segment of the Marshalls, and so that diet shouldn't really, significantly change atoll from atoll to atoll because they are all of the north. If you were to have compared a diet in the north with a diet in the south, like Joluit or some place like that, then there might be some changes. more root plants that we consume. We would have In the north, it is basically we have breadfruit, we have fish, we have crabs and then we have imported food, throughout the northern Marshalls. So why is that those numbers are so different, Ujelang and Brookhaven? That is the question. * Spelled phonetically. PRIVACY ACT MATERIAL REMOVED
