MALNUTRITION - AND CHILDREN
Malnutrition:
Someone who doesn't get enough of one specific nutrient has a nutritional deficiency, a form of malnutrition (although it doesn't necessarily mean the person will become seriously ill).
Someone who doesn't get enough of one specific nutrient has a nutritional deficiency, a form of malnutrition (although it doesn't necessarily mean the person will become seriously ill).
Even people who have plenty to eat may be malnourished if they don't eat foods that provide the right nutrients, vitamins, and minerals.
Some diseases and conditions prevent people from digesting or absorbing their food properly. For a example :
🔵 some with 'Celiac disease 'has intestinal problems that are triggered by a protein called Gluten, which is found in wheat , rye and barlay.
🔵 kids with ' Cystic Fibrosis' have trouble absorbing nutrients because the disease affects the pancreas , an organ that normally produces enzymes necessary for digestion.
The most common nutritional deficiency in the world is iron deficiency, which can lead to anemia.
WHO( world health organization) estimates that as many 2 billion people worldwide don't get enough nutrients like iron, vitamins A, and Zinc in their diets.

Malnutrition affects people of every age, although infants, children , and adolescents may suffer the most because many nutrients are critical for normal growth and development. Older people may develop malnutrition because aging , illness, and other factors can lead to a poor appetite, so they may not eat enough.
Alcohol can interfere with nutrient absorption, so alcoholic might not benefit from the vitamins and minerals they consume. People who abuse drugs or alcohol can be malnourished or underweight if they don't eat properly.
Children and teens on special diets such as vegetarians - need to eat balanced meals and a variety of foods to get the right nutrients. Vegetarians and vegans , for example protein and vitamins like B12.

Few kids in the United States and other developed nations experience severe malnutrition like that seen in Third world countries.
Even finicky eaters usually get adequate calories and nutrients.
The best way for parents to ensure that kids are properly nourished is to serve a variety of healthy foods and limit.
