Nutrition Disorders
Nutrition disorders are health issues that arise from an imbalance in nutrient intake. These can include deficiencies, where the body lacks essential vitamins and minerals, or excesses, leading to conditions like obesity. Common examples of nutrition disorders are iron deficiency anemia, scurvy, and obesity, each affecting the body in different ways.
These disorders can result from various factors, including poor dietary choices, medical conditions, or socioeconomic status. Addressing nutrition disorders often involves dietary changes, supplementation, and education about healthy eating habits to promote overall well-being and prevent further health complications.
