Author(s):
Derline Jose and Neelanjana J
Abstract:
Malnutrition in women refers to a condition in which women have an inadequate intake of nutrients, resulting in physical and mental health problems. Malnutrition can affect women of all ages and can be caused by various factors, such as poverty, lack of access to food, and cultural practices that limit food intake. Malnutrition can have serious consequences for women, including an increased risk of morbidity and mortality, reduced fertility, and poor maternal and child health outcomes. Addressing malnutrition in women requires a multifaceted approach that includes improving access to nutritious food, promoting healthy eating behaviors, and addressing underlying social and economic determinants of health.
