Abstract
This paper examines the intersection of public health nutrition and sustainable development goals in developing countries using World Development Indicators (WDI) data spanning from 2007 to 2021. Employing panel data analysis, the study aims to identify nutritional factors influencing the development of sustainability goal 3 good health and well-being. The analysis reveals that factors such as current health expenditure, public spending on education, access to safely managed drinking water, and sanitation services exhibit a significant and negative impact on maternal mortality rates while showing a positive impact on life expectancy at birth. Additionally, the prevalence of hypertension and undernourishment is found to have a significant negative impact on life expectancy, indicating their importance as key indicators for measuring public health nutrition in developing nations. The study offers policy recommendations and innovative solutions aimed at enhancing health systems, advocating for the implementation of effective policies and cultivating a knowledgeable workforce to raise awareness among populations, promote healthy behaviors, and safeguard communities against environmental hazards.
