About this ebook
Malnutrition Effects examines the enduring impact of nutritional deficiencies on long-term health, highlighting how inadequate nutrition during critical developmental stages can program biological systems toward lifelong vulnerability.
The book explores the multifaceted consequences of malnutrition, including increased susceptibility to infectious disease and cognitive impairment, emphasizing that early malnutrition is not merely a temporary condition but a determinant of health and wellness throughout life.
It reveals the intergenerational cycle of malnutrition, where maternal malnutrition can lead to adverse pregnancy outcomes, affecting fetal programming and epigenetics.
