Undernutrition – http://id.who.int/icd/entity/1517885800
Undernutrition is a condition in which the body’s requirements are unmet due to underconsumption or to impaired absorption and use of nutrients. It can be produced by lack of access to food, or as a consequence of illness. Undernutrition commonly refers to a deficit in energy intake, but can also refer to deficiencies of specific nutrients, and can be either acute or chronic.
