Causes of malnutrition other than poverty.

2/1/2018

0 Comments

 
  1. Ignorance: - lack of information on healthy foods leads to consumption of less nutritious foods e.g. sodas and juices thus malnutrition sets in. 
  2. Natural calamities: - these are floods, drought and war which affect food production and distribution hence food availability. 
  3. Corruption: - corrupt individuals grab and hoard resources like food and land thus unequal distribution of resources affecting food production. 
  4. Political instability: - wars and clashes displace people thus no food.
  5. Food taboos: - superstitions, taboos and religious beliefs may lead to the prohibition of eating certain foods e.g. women not eating chicken. 
  6. Lifestyle: - modern changes may lead to increased intake of certain nutrients hence leading to diseases like obesity, gout, diabetes and hypertension.
  7. Body’s inability to utilize certain nutrients: - refer to a condition whereby specific nutrients are not absorbed into the body. 
  8. Pandemic like HIV and AIDS affect the productive age group leading to low food production.
  9. Parental commitments due to pressure from modern life and hence not caring about children.
