This book aims at documenting the benefits of food-based approaches, particularly of dietary improvement and diversification interventions, in control- ling and preventing micronutrient deficiencies. The focus of the publication is on practical actions for overcoming micronutrient malnutrition in a sustainable manner through increasing access to and availability and consumption of adequate quantities and variety of safe, good- quality food. The book is unique in this area as it is the first to gather a variety of relevant articles under one cover to encourage and promote further attention, importance and invest- ment in food-based strategies to combat micronutrient deficiencies. Although the most severe problems of micronutrient malnutrition are found in develop- ing countries, people of all population groups in all regions of the world can be affected by micronutrient deficiencies. Approximately two billion people – about a third of the world’s population – are today deficient in one or more micronutrients. This is one of the most serious impediments to socio-economic development, contributing to the vicious cycle of malnutri- tion, underdevelopment and poverty. Micronutrient malnutrition has long-ranging effects on health, learning ability and productivity, leading to high social and public costs, reduced work capacity in populations due to high rates of illness and disability and tragic loss of human potential. Therefore, overcoming micronutrient deficiencies is a precondition for ensuring rapid and appropriate development. 2014-04-21T02:27:15Z 2014-04-21T02:27:15Z 2011 Book 978 1 84593 714 0 https://scholar.dlu.edu.vn/thuvienso/handle/DLU123456789/37002 en application/pdf cabi
