Percentages of kg, kcal, carbohydrates (g), proteins (g) and iron (mg) provided in one year by the documented foods according to their obtaining form and food group. The estimation of the contribution in kg, kcal, carbohydrates, proteins and iron obtained from gathered food was made based on 12 species, as indicated in Table 3, with the exception of berros (Philoglossa sp.), chulquillo (Peperomia sp.) and uchu uchu (Ceratostema peruviana), whose nutritional information could not be found. Nutritional contribution (%): Kg: Kilograms; Kcal: Kilocalories; CHO: Carbohydrates (g); PRO: Proteins (g); Fe: Iron (mg); Obtaining forms: HU, hunting and fishing; PU, purchasing; BR, breeding of domestic animals and derivatives; CR, crops and derivatives; GA, gathering
