Malnutrition has been observed in various forms ranging
from under-nutrition to overweight and obesity. Even though, the overall
estimates reflect a decline in the incidence of stunted children, the overall
progress towards ending all forms of malnutrition is not on the right track. It
is important to realize that a simultaneous rise in the incidence of both
under-nutrition and overweight has been observed. This is predominantly because
of the similar biological, environmental and socioeconomic factors that
together contribute to the rise in the risk or prevalence of both forms of
malnutrition. From a policy makers’ perspective, the presence of a similar kind
of factors which determine the incidence of both spectrums of malnutrition,
implementation of integrated actions, policies and programs, can significantly
deal with the global challenge of combating with all forms of malnutrition can
be accomplished. To conclude, owing to the rising trend of the double malnutrition
in different parts of the world, there is a great need to implement double-duty
actions to respond to various forms of malnutrition.
