The importance of adequate diet has been made known.
What happens when we don’t eat adequate diet? We get malnourished and face the consequences.
Consequences of malnutrition are glaring and brutal.
We discussed two major ones in our previous writeups and some would be revealed in this post.
Remember, malnutrition is not something that happens suddenly, rather it builds up over time before it becomes overwhelming.
Here are some consequences
1. Stunted growth
2. Reduced muscle mass and strength
3.Impaired intellectual(brain) development
4. Weak immune system
5. Malnutrition causes apathy, depression, introversion, self-neglect and deterioration in social interactions
6. Delayed sexual development
7. Hollow cheeks and sunken eyes
How do you overcome this,
Wanting to overcome malnutrition is the first step and I’m happy you are about taking this step.
1.Follow the advice of your healthcare provider
- Consume balanced diet
- Stick to the professional plan/diet

This all can’t be overemphasized.
