School children diagnosed with poor nutrition due to excess

By Elsa Maria Santandreu Uriarte, Oiga María Torre Manrreso, LLanuris Llanes García

Malnutrition is defined as deficient or unbalanced nutrition due to a poor or excessive diet; it is one of the factors that contribute most to the global burden of disease, since more than one third of childhood illnesses worldwide are attributed to malnutrition, where poverty is one of the main causes. Among the public health problems with social implications, weight disorders such as overweight and obesity stand out, which have been considered in contemporary times as a cultural condition with consequences only in personal aesthetics; however, with the advance of knowledge, it is considered as an entity with medical and socio-environmental intervening factors.
