The Lifelong Impact of Childhood Malnutrition
Imagine the first five years of life as the blueprint for a skyscraper—each nutrient serving as the steel beams, electrical wiring, and structural foundation. When malnutrition weakens these building blocks, the entire structure faces instability, affecting cognitive function, emotional resilience, physical health, and economic opportunity well into adulthood. This course unpacks the far-reaching effects of childhood nutritional deprivation, exploring how the early absence of essential nutrients can shape brain development, immune function, learning potential, and socioeconomic mobility.
