Good day to all the, great and hardworking members of this great platform,i am so happy to take part in this contest, and i wish you all a happy Palm Sunday.
the problems that children can face due to malnutrition?
Speaking of malnutrition, Malnutrition can be seen as the act or process in which an individual lacks majority of the six classes of food,or lacks balance diet.
The problems a child can face due to Malnutrition are;
If a children's are malnutrited there will be easily infected with diseases.
It causes the immune system to be weak.
Malnutrition can cause stunted growth in children.
It decreases the blood of children's and adult leading to anemia.
It can also reduce the capacity and functioning of the brains.
Share the factors contributing to malnutrition?
The factors that can contribute to Malnutrition are;
[i]poverty: this is one of the major factors that can lead to the malnutrition of children,in the case that if you are from a poor family back ground you will not be able to feed on balance diet.
[ii] lack of basic nutrients or elements; humans need macro elements or nutrients like e.g sulphur, calcium, phosphorus and potassium. And micro elements or nutrients like zinc, iron and chlorine etc
[iii] if a child lacks the complete three square meal he/she needs it can result to malnutrition.
How can we prevent a child from these issues?
i - Establishment of child welfare organization like the UNICEF to help in monitoring of children affected by malnutrition and other things affecting child health.
ii - Ensuring that a child is always equip with the necessary balance diet.
iii - protein should always be more than the carbohydrates, because the protein is an body building food while carbohydrates are energy giving food. There should be enough protein in other to build the child's immune system.
you can give suggestions to improve health care of children in developing countries?
One of the suggestion i have is that countries should organize a health care scheme that has to do with stopping malnutrition in children.
Individuals should extend a giving hand by helping children who are malnurished due to one reason or the other by providing food stuff and other basic aminities a child may need to avoid malnutrition.
