I found this resource to be a great introduction and overview on child malnourishment. It is truly a shame that such an issue continues to plague us, however sources like these which can help educate hopefully provides more awareness. Especially since the information was easy to understand, and included a wide range of risks, factors that might cause increased rates of malnourishment, and even preventative measures, this source has the potential to help a lot of people. Even if I had heard of child malnourishment as a problem, a lot of these factors were things I had not even considered.
