Answer:
Explanation:
- Around the world, more than enough food is produced to feed the global population—but more than 690 million people still go hungry. [4] After steadily declining for a decade, world hunger is on the rise, affecting 8.9 percent of people globally.
- The imbalance in nutrients first shows in blood and tissue, followed by metabolic processes —finally, tell-tale signs and symptoms appear. The effects of malnutrition include: changes in body mass, poor wound healing, severe weight loss (cachexia), and organ failure —among others—, all of which are described below.
- Children. Children are at high risk of hunger because they are dependent on adults for their care. And their younger and growing bodies are more vulnerable to the other problems hunger causes. Every year, 2.6 million children die as a result of hunger-related causes
- The world is off track to meet its own goal of ending hunger by 2030, and it's not clear if anyone in power will ever be held accountable for the shortfall. Just over two years ago, the international community committed to ending hunger as the second of the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).

Malnutrition refers to deficiencies, excesses or imbalances in a person's intake of energy and/or nutrientsThe result of undernutrition is that growth slows and common childhood infections last longer and are more frequent and serious. Undernourished children are at high risk of permanently stunted growth and development (because they explore less and interact less with other people).
