Abstract

Change detection and prevalence of child undernutrition among the Empowered Action Group (EAG) states of India were studied using National Family Health Survey-4 and 5 data. The results identified that the prevalence of undernutrition in most of the EAG states is still more than 30%. Although stunting and underweight have decreased in all EAG states, this pattern is higher than that of the national level but the prevalence of wasting has only increased in Bihar. Strengthening public health initiatives and collaborative endeavor between organizations, enhancing mother's education, increasing awareness, and raising the economic as well as sociopolitical empowerment of mothers are essential for addressing the undernutrition issue.

印度授权行动小组国家五岁以下儿童营养不良的患病率和变化检测：2016-2021年全国家庭健康调查的审查。

利用国家家庭健康调查4和5的数据，研究了印度授权行动小组各州儿童营养不良的变化检测和患病率。结果表明，EAG大多数州的营养不良率仍超过30%。尽管所有EAG州的发育迟缓和体重不足都有所减少，但这种模式高于全国水平，但比哈尔邦的消瘦率只增加了。加强公共卫生倡议和各组织之间的合作，加强母亲的教育，提高认识，提高母亲的经济和社会政治权力，对于解决营养不良问题至关重要。

期刊介绍： Ecology of Food and Nutrition is an international journal of food and nutrition in the broadest sense. The journal publishes peer-reviewed articles on all aspects of food and nutrition -- ecological, biological, and cultural. Ecology of Food and Nutrition strives to become a forum for disseminating scholarly information on the holistic and cross-cultural dimensions of the study of food and nutrition. It emphasizes foods and food systems not only in terms of their utilization to satisfy human nutritional needs and health, but also to promote and contest social and cultural identity. The content scope is thus wide -- articles may focus on the relationship between food and nutrition, food taboos and preferences, ecology and political economy of food, the evolution of human nutrition, changes in food habits, food technology and marketing, food and identity, and food sustainability. Additionally, articles focusing on the application of theories and methods to address contemporary food and nutrition problems are encouraged. Questions of the relationship between food/nutrition and culture are as germane to the journal as analyses of the interactions among nutrition and environment, infection and human health.
