Nowadays, life is advancing day by day, and the problem of food and clothing that used to exist no longer exists. However, symptoms of malnutrition may occur due to improper dietary arrangements. If malnutrition is detected and needs timely treatment, what are the earliest symptoms of malnutrition?
Firstly, people at different stages exhibit different symptoms of malnutrition. For example, if a child experiences unstable walking between the ages of 1 and a half to 2, and parents may overlook the child's calcium deficiency or poor physical condition, this symptom may also be caused by malnutrition; Some children may find that their coordination skills are poor and they cannot keep up with their peers in running after entering daycare. As children grow up, symptoms of muscular dystrophy will become increasingly apparent. Children may sway like ducks while walking, and it can be difficult to perform movements such as going upstairs and squatting.
Secondly, adults may also experience malnutrition, such as emaciation, easy fatigue, poor skin and muscle condition, and lack of elasticity, indicating that their body is in a stage of malnutrition. People who have irregular diets, love spicy foods, and snacks are prone to malnutrition. Pay attention to a balanced and nutritious diet in daily life, correct bad eating habits such as picky and selective eating, and eat more foods that strengthen the spleen and aid digestion.
Finally, if children experience symptoms of low weight, emaciation, or growth retardation, they should go to the hospital for examination and treatment as soon as possible, so as not to affect their future life.
