Abstract

The Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) target ending all forms of malnutrition globally by 2025. Malnutrition is quite preventable, identifiable, and curable with the prescribed methods and protocols by the World Health Organization (WHO). The requirement of proteins and carbohydrates, being the major macro nutrients, plays a vital role in one's body. The effects of protein energy malnutrition (PEM) can be seen at any stage of life if the body is unable to intake adequate nutrients from the diet. Its repercussion can transfer to generations. Worldwide, children suffer the most with malnutrition, which in-turn lead to wasting, stunting, and its related diseases and untimely death. This chapter attempts to highlight the various aspects of PEM and its salient features.
