Under nourishment child recovered


  Sarah’s Doctor said; under nutrition is a consequence of consuming little energy and other essential nutrients, or excreting them more rapidly than they can be replaced. This state of malnutrition is often characterized by infection and disease. It occurs during either pregnancy or before the age of 2 years of age. It may result in permanent metal development and intensifies the effect of every disease. Young children less than 3 years are most vulnerable to malnutrition. Beyond the age of 2 – 3 years, the effects of chronic malnutrition are irreversible. This means that to break the intergenerational transmission of poverty and malnutrition, children at risk must be reached during their first two years of life. Child malnutrition is the biggest contributor to under-five slow recovery from illness. Children who are already under nourished can suffer from protein-energy malnutrition when rapid growth, infection or disease increases the need for protein.
