Question

Describe the supplementary nutrition

component of ICDS for all the beneficiaries.​

Answer 1

Answer:

Children under age five

Overall, 43% of children under age 5 in the sample are underweight for their age,

16 This is lower than what the 2005 National Family Health Survey-3 survey indi-

cates, but is almost identical to the data from a 2011 survey conducted by the Naandi foun-

dation.17 58% of children suffer from stunting (low height-for-age) which is due to chronic

malnourishment. Almost 20% of children suffer from wasting (low weight-for-height),

which is often related to acute malnutrition.18 These high levels are cause for concern: the

World Health Organization deems a prevalence of low weight-for-height over 10% as “seri-

ous” and over 15% as “critical”.
