Malnutrition –
outcome of food insecurity
The term malnutrition indicates a bad nutritional status.
Nutritional status is the physiological state of an individual.
It results from:
• the relationship between nutrient intake and requirements, and
the body’s ability to digest, absorb and use these nutrients.
![Page 3: Food and Nutrition Security Concepts Use and Utilization ... · A distinction must be made between Malnutrition and Undernutrition: It arises either: from deficiencies or excesses](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022041513/5e29318a5fe95a7b37147913/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
A distinction must be made between Malnutrition and Undernutrition:
It arises either:
from deficiencies or excesses of specific nutrients, or
from undiversified diets (wrong kinds or proportions of foods).
“over or under”
It is the outcome of insufficient food.
It is caused primarily by an inadequate intake/utilisation of
nutrients or diseases.

Conceptual Model of Malnutrition
...describes the immediate and
underlying causes of malnutrition
and their inter-relationships by
using a conceptual framework.
It is not simply a lack of food that
leads to malnutrition….

Use and Utilisation
Effective utilisation refers to the ability to
1) Use the food in a manner that the nutritive contents and value of the food consumed
are maintained, the nutrients are well balanced and sufficient to met our nutritional requirements. (USE)
2) Physiological functions of the body to fully absorb and utilised the nutrients consumed. (UTILISATION)
![Page 12: Food and Nutrition Security Concepts Use and Utilization ... · A distinction must be made between Malnutrition and Undernutrition: It arises either: from deficiencies or excesses](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022041513/5e29318a5fe95a7b37147913/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Utilisation and StabilitySeasonal changes in nutritional status.
Many communities experience periods in the year when malnutrition levels are higher. These are influenced by seasonal patterns such as:
disease,
child care, time availability
income sources,
price of foods,
cropping patterns,
food availability
labour demand.

The Social and Care Environment
The social context and care environment
within the household and local community
directly influence nutrition. This includes:
Direct caring behaviours
Women’s role, status & rights
Social organization and networks
Cultural context
![Page 16: Food and Nutrition Security Concepts Use and Utilization ... · A distinction must be made between Malnutrition and Undernutrition: It arises either: from deficiencies or excesses](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022041513/5e29318a5fe95a7b37147913/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)

Gender Imbalances
Different levels of involvement in decision-making.
Unequal right to make decisions over the use of household resources leads to different perspectives in defining and solving problems.
Access to assets/facilities/services/basic needs (for girls, women and female headed households).
Food utilisation (restrictions/taboos, age and sex-specific nutritional needs); cultural practices diminishing the capacity of women to develop sustainable livelihoods.

Note:
• Each of the underlying causes is
necessary but not sufficient to ensure
adequate nutrition.
• The combined effects of a failure in all 3
causes is greater than the sum of the
individual effects.
• Seasonal changes occur in all 3 causes.
• ‘Coping strategies’ carry costs.

Constraints to
Effective UtilisationEffective utilisation of the food is often inhibited by
• inadequate intake, preparation
• diseases,
• lack of hygiene, sanitation and safe drinking water,
• lack of knowledge of nutrition issues
• lack of knowledge and means to prepare and consume the food in an appropriate and safe form.
• lack of time and caring capacities

Food, health and care are interrelated:
actions affecting one area may have significant consequences on another.
Development policies not always include nutrition specifically.
NUTRITION: every business nobodies responsibility
However, many of them impact the nutritional well-being of the population.
