✔️Malnutrition is a condition that results from eating a diet in which one or more nutrients are either not enough or are too much such that the diet causes health problems.It may involve calories, protein, carbohydrates, vitamins or minerals.

✔️Not enough nutrients is called undernutrition or undernourishment while too much is called overnutrition.

✔️Malnutrition is often used to specifically refer to undernutrition where an individual is not getting enough calories, protein, or micronutrients.

✔️If undernutrition occurs during pregnancy, or before two years of age, it may result in permanent problems with physical and mental development.

✔️Extreme undernourishment, known as starvation, may have symptoms that include:
▪️a short height
▪️thin body
▪️very poor energy levels
▪️and swollen legs and abdomen.

✔️People also often get infections and are frequently cold.The symptoms of micronutrient deficiencies depend on the micronutrient that is lacking.
