What to Focus On
- Malnutrition includes both undernutrition and overnutrition.
- Undernutrition leads to stunting, wasting, and micronutrient deficiencies.
- Overnutrition causes obesity and lifestyle diseases.
- Reduces physical and mental productivity.
- Increases death rates, especially among children.
- Impairs child development and learning capacity.
- Poverty limits access to nutritious food.
- Infections increase nutrient needs while reducing food intake.
- Lack of knowledge about nutrition leads to poor dietary choices.
Common Mistakes to Avoid
BMI alone can accurately diagnose all types of malnutrition in adults.
Wasting and stunting mean the same thing – a child is just thin or short.
Clinical methods are outdated and not useful in modern nutritional assessment.
