When it comes to optimal physical & mental development, nutrition is the most crucial factor. Childhood supplementation of various macro & micronutrients, along with phytonutrients (plant based nutrients), were found to be particularly effective in improving overall health.
The supplementation of such nutrients to young children, especially the ones suffering from nutrient deficiencies, will provide them with necessary resources for overall development during their growth years.
Nutritional deficiency is an important factor that can affect health and increase the risk of acute infectious disease or death. Childhood is a critical period for growth and development and a “vulnerable period” to a variety of factors, including nutritional deficiencies.
Under-nutrition during this period is related to wasting, underweight and stunting, thus, damaged child’s own health. Undernutrition in early childhood can affect cognition, language and social emotions, hinder later development and have a negative impact on human capital and economic growth.
It is reported that an estimated 500,000 children who are vitamin A-deficient become blind every year, and half of them die within 12 months of losing their sight. Iron deficiency is the main cause of anaemia, with 41.7% of children worldwide having iron deficiency. Protein–energy malnutrition can cause stunting, infections, cognitive and behavioural disorders etc.
Acc. to the Comprehensive National Nutrition Survey of children (CNNSC) between 0 and 19 years in 2019 in India, zinc deficiency was observed in 19% of pre-school children and 32% of adolescents, whereas 23% of pre-school children and 37 % of adolescents were deficient in folate. Vitamin B12, vitamin A and vitamin D deficiencies range between 14 and 31% for pre-school children and adolescents.
It is vital for children to have proper nutrition and nourishment at an early age so that they can lead a healthy and disease-free life. When food is consumed, digested and absorbed by the body it provides the energy the body needs to perform various essential functions and for proper growth and development.
The food consumption habits of children have changed during the last few decades. Currently, many children consume food high in fat, especially saturated fats and sweetened beverages. They do not eat enough fruits, or vegetables and consequently do not consume enough fibre. In addition, their calcium, vitamin D and iron intake is also low. These poor eating habits often result in nutritional deficiency.
In most cases the nutritional deficiency starts in the mother's womb. Lack of various nutrients in the mother such as folic acid, calcium, omega-3, vitamin D and iodine could result in the new-born’s health problems hence the importance of prioritizing maternal nutrition.
In toddlers the most common causes of inadequate nutrition are poor food intake, unhealthy eating habits, frequent, or chronic illness and picky eating behaviour. The inability of the body to absorb the nutrients from the food can also be caused by disease.
In fact, studies have found that, there are app. 372 million preschool-aged children and 1·2 billion non-pregnant women of reproductive age with one or more micronutrient deficiencies worldwide.
When it comes to optimal physical & mental development, nutrition is the most crucial factor. Childhood supplementation of various macro & micronutrients, along with phytonutrients (plant based nutrients), were found to be particularly effective in improving overall health.
