Women Shellfishers' Dataset

This dataset contains 504 observations and 86 variables collected from women in estuarine communities (e.g., Densu). It includes socio-demographic characteristics (age, education, literacy, marital status, occupation, parity, household size), housing and asset indicators, and food security measures (HHS, food security status). Nutritional indicators include dietary diversity (MDD-W), anthropometry (weight, height, BMI categories), and haemoglobin levels with anaemia classifications. The dataset also captures detailed dietary intake variables such as energy, macronutrients, fatty acids, cholesterol, and multiple micronutrients (iron, zinc, calcium, magnesium, selenium, etc.), including oyster-derived nutrients, making it suitable for nutrition and food security analyses.
