The growth and development of
school-age and preadolescent children and their relationships to
nutritional status is significant right from the beginning. Children
continue to grow physi-cally at a steady rate during this period;
nevertheless the development from cognitive, emo-tional and social
standpoint is tremendous. This period in a child's life is preparation
for the physical and emotional demands of the adolescent growth spurt,
with aid of family members, teachers and others in their lives who model
healthy eating and physical activity behaviors.
This thesis focuses
on the effects of malnutrition and the impact it has on the lives of
chil-dren in the developing countries, particularly in Sub-Saharan
Africa and Southern Asia by re-viewing existing scientific-based
literatures on the topic of malnutrition. The purpose of this study was
to find out and describe why developing countries are associated with
malnutrition problems. The study is conducted through a systematic
literature review because it synthe-sizes and analyzes previous
literature findings in an impartial way.
