About this class
Malnutrition can make a person more susceptible to infection, and infection also contributes to malnutrition, which causes a vicious cycle (figure 3). An inadequate dietary intake leads to weight loss, lowered immunity, mucosal damage, invasion by pathogens, and impaired growth and development in children.
