Prevention and treatment of malnutrition

What is the treatment of malnutrition? The only solution for malnutrition is giving enough protein reach food (body building food) and Vitamins and minerals (defensive food) like beans, milk, fish, fruits, green and fresh vegetable, eggs, and meat.

One important thing is malnourished child need extra food than other child so it is important to give more food to child than what they usually give, the child eat at least 5 to 6 times a day. Keep in mind that they need more and more protein and energy food so, give the mixture of protein and energy food which must be well cooked because it is easy to digest.

Again I’m repeating that breast milk is best for babies try to give breast milk at least up to 2 years. After the first four to six months, the baby should begin to get other nutritious food in addition to breast milk.

I think this is enough explanation for balanced diet, in my coming posts I’m going to elucidate about the important exercises which are essential in our day to day life.
