FAQ’s about Malnutrition

The types include undernutrition (wasting, stunting), overnutrition (obesity), micronutrient deficiencies, and protein-energy malnutrition.

Symptoms can include weight loss, fatigue, weakened immune system, slow wound healing, and impaired cognitive function.

Causes include inadequate food intake, poor diet quality, digestive disorders, chronic diseases, and socioeconomic factors.

Diseases can include kwashiorkor, marasmus, anemia, scurvy, rickets, and various deficiencies of vitamins and minerals.

There are no universally defined “steps” of malnutrition, but addressing it typically involves improving diet quality, treating underlying conditions, and providing nutritional support.

Prevention strategies include promoting balanced diets, breastfeeding infants, addressing socioeconomic inequalities, and providing access to healthcare.

Side effects can include impaired growth and development, weakened immune system, organ damage, and increased susceptibility to infections.

Blood tests can measure levels of specific nutrients like iron, vitamin B12, and albumin to assess nutritional status.
